  • How much would It cost to turn my downstairs toilet into a wet room?

    I have a reasonably large downstairs toilet that I'd like to turn into a wetroom. The room is approximately 2 metre x 2.5 metres. How much would I be looking at cost wise for the conversion?

    Water streaming onto conservatory

    There is water streaming onto the conservatory from a far plastic pipe (near guttering) on the roof outside at the back. It's a semi-detached house. Is there any reason this could be an issue with my home, or is it a problem for the neighbours?

    Driveway Options

    We have a very large sloped courtyard. Currently several layers of tarmac, which all needs removing and re-landscaping as rain runs towards the house, not away from it. I need low cost solution ideas. Something that will keep the weeds out, but that heavy goods vehicles can still deliver pallets of manure etc to us, and also parking areas. Someone quoted us £50K-£100K to block pave it all, but we just don’t have that sort of money, and not sure that would solve the rain running like a river at times anyway. Look forward to hearing ideas.

    Replace battery on outdoor lights

    I had an outdoor light fitted in 2017 by electrician, the light would come on in the dark when dog went out into garden. This no longer works, does it have battery/batteries that need changing? It consists of the light that comes on, below that is the small motor sensor and right at the top there is a little white box. Is this where battery is? How do I fix it?

    Avoiding headaches when painting

    I’d like to perform a DIY paint job. However, I do sometimes get headaches when working with paint. Is there anything I can do to avoid this? Is this a sign that I should simply avoid undertaking paint jobs by myself? In this case, should I just hire a professional? If I wear a mask, could it prevent the headaches from occurring or is it better to avoid it anyway? It’d be great to get some guidance on this area as I’d really like to get some paintwork done soon around the house.
