    Cost to convert a shed into an office

    I've got a decent sized shed at the bottom of the garden, about 3m by 4m and structurally sound. Now I'm working from home three days a week I'd like to turn it into a proper office with insulation, power and lighting. What sort of budget should I have in mind?

    Cost to repair damp floor at patio doors

    I have been asked to get a quote for an insurance claim but i'm not sure what trade to contact. I notice water damage at the bottom of my kitchen unit. I pulled back the flooring at my patio doors & the floor is damp/wet. I have a couple of steps going down into the garden. I think the water has come in due to the heavy rain & high winds. How much would I be looking at to remediate the damage and what trade should i be contacting? Thanks.
