  • Strengthen floor joists

    My surveyor has said I may need the joists in the upstairs bathroom strengthening as the floor is tilting towards the bath/wall. How much would that cost? And will I need to have the bath and flooring removed for this? Thank you!

    How much should I budget for an Architect and Structural engineer

    Hi, I'm looking to start my first building project where I plan to build thirty six garages in Glasgow on a vacant plot of land. The land is clean as in doesn't have any planning in place and so if anyone was able to estimate how much I should allow for the Architect and structural engineer that would be helpful. I've spoken to an architect but they don't want to estimate until they visit the site at a charge of £500 so before I start wanted to check what might be reasonable. Thanks

    Wood burner Hetas certificate help

    Been completely let down by a wood burner installer. We had a woodburner installed around a month ago. The company that installed it told us that they could self-certify. The problem is that I can't get in touch with them and im beginning to be concerned that i shouldnt use the burner. Am i going to have to get someone else to come and certify it? Can i do that? I feel like i've been robbed. Is there anyone i can contact about this? Thanks.

    Gutter cleaning a DIY job or not?

    I’ve lived in my two-storey house for 6 years and I’ve never had the gutters cleared. My friend said I should get someone in to do it for me but I don’t know what the state of them is. I’m worried I’ll be wasting money hiring someone. Are there any tools I can buy to clear them from the ground (not good with heights) or should I bite the bullet and get someone in?
