  • Bumps on kitchen floor

    My kitchen floor has developed bumps. There is a concrete base which appears intact but a new (4 yr old) screed has cracked and 'erupted'. I have had it checked for damp and a builder has looked at it too and can't identify the cause.

    Electric shower upgrade 8.5kW to 9.8kW

    I would like to replace my current Triton T80si pumped (8.5kW) with a Mira Elite SE (9.8kW). The current Triton shower wiring seems to be 6mm (tbc) on a 40A MCB (30 mA protected). I need to know if the Mira shower can be installed and if any of the electric setup needs work.

    Starting a handyman business

    I want to start my own handyman business and I'm looking for a bit of advice on how to price jobs. Should I work out an hourly rate and charge that regardless of the job. Or should I charge more for complex/skilled jobs? I have some experience and basic qualifications for things such as plumbing, so I don't want to sell myself short but I don't want to price myself out either.

    Should I gloss or leave wooden finish skirtings / staircase

    In the progess of getting the house done, full refurb. Do you think it is best to have treated wood skirtings and stair case or have them painted and a different colour on the wall to offset? House it rather modern but I do want it to age well!
