Hi , I need a conservatory taking down and re-installing . It’s a hardwood one . Please let me know if this feasible ? Or whether I should just buy a new conservatory.
I need to render a partial extension and some other repair work. The issue I have is the walls are uneven and there are slight differences in where the brickwork and blocks come out to. When putting the scratch coat on can it be thicker in sections to try and even it out or do I need to put a coat on, let it dry then put another scratch coat on top? What's the best way of dealing with rendering the uneven walls?
How long does it generally take to unblock drains?
Hi all, I'm half way through a home insurance claim for water damage from an upstairs shower. The leaks have been fixed and the structure is now dry. As part of the process the home insurance company outsourced the leak detection and drying out to a company who essentially stripped the ceiling of a bedroom (i.e. no ceiling at all) and removed water damaged insulation. What needs to happen now is someone to put new insulation back, get ceiling plaster board in and decorate I assume. What trades would do this? I'm totally lost and the insurer isn't helping either.
I would like to change my old electric oven for a new one, however my old one is connected directly into a fused connection unit, while the new one is coming with a plug. How much will it cost to change it, please?
Hi, we have just moved into a new home and the garden is in a really bad way. Theres a big tree and the routes are showing up all oner the lawn, theres no grass growth anywhere near it, just dry soil and moss. The other end of the garden has grass but is extremely dry. Is there anyway I could grow the grass back? If not, are there ways i can make it at least look presentable? Thanks in advance for your help
Traders on here have been very helpful in the past, hope you can be again. This question is in 2 parts really. I recently had a dry verge installed that was quoted at £650, and was then told that the felt behind the mortar had deteriorated badly so I needed 2 m of new felt and batten which would take 2 days. I was left with a bill for £2.5k, after the work was done in a day. Does this seem fair? The second part of this question is that the dry verge looks very wonky. My understanding is that it should look relatively flush and straight and shouldn't really deviate. Is this right? It looks worst at the peak of the roof where it appears to tilt away from the roof.
