How do I go about levelling a garden to have it paved and turfed ?
I’m trying to prepare walls ready for a plasterer to come in and skim coat. I’ve taken off wallpaper back to the old skim coat, and the adhesive is a nightmare to get off. I’m not confident there won’t be residue left, so was going to apply gardz to solve that problem. Can a skim coat go straight over gardz, or will I need to PVA/SBR/Blue grit as well?
Is it generally cheaper to hire a man and van instead of hiring a skip? Are there any other alternatives for waste removal?

Will also need new bathtub and sink Need it done in stages due to financial reasons and so kids including a disabled person have access to bathing so bathtub installation will need to be the last step. My question What steps will need to be followed to achieve the above. Ideally want 1 to 2 steps per month. How much am I looking at spending overall?
Question for any proper plumbers. Daughters loft tank overflow occasionally runs. I have replaced the ball valve & set it well below the overflow. However we notice that every so often it still overflows. I noticed it when i ran hot & cold in kitchen to clean a couple of rollers & today it happened when she ran a bath. Any ideas? Some sort of back flow? Its not all the time. TIA for any ideas / answers.
