    How much to build a set of outdoor steps?

    I’m hoping to have a set of steps built into my garden from my back door which was previously a window (so no previous steps were in place). Height about meter or slightly less from ground level. I’m not wanting brick finish, I have some slabs which I would like to use if possible. How much would I need to budget? Which trades would I need?

    stiff shower valve

    Hi, I have a problem with my shower valve. The thermostat is stiff, thus is difficult to adjust the hot/cold water. From producer website the product is described as: "twin outlet triple control concealed thermostatic valve with ABS coverplate" (http://www.purabathrooms.co.uk/catalog/showers/showers-concealed-shower-valves/SQTCV). I need an expert opinion, but I assume the work needed is: - either check if there is any lime scale and try to clean it - either change the showervalve is the limescale cannot be removed. Anybody able to help me with this? Thank you, George
