Thanks for the responses, the real problem we have is they keep digging up the garden; the foxes live in a garden 2 doors away and there are 4 of them so we hear them constantly screaming at night, jumping over fences and see them attacking birds in the morning. We can't venture into the garden...

Many thanks for the quick reply but whats Kingspan?

We have a huge problem in our garden with foxes and wondered if anyone knew what suitable fencing we could use to keep them out - we have 6 foot wooden fences at the back of the garden that backs onto another house, which the foxes jump over but to the left a low wooden fence - as we live on a...

We recently had our whole roof replaced and today had our visit from the council in respect of the work carried out and the insulation of our loft. We've been advised that before the work can be signed off that we need to top-up our loft insulation - we we're told we'd only need 2 rolls but our...

Yes, I've double checked and it's a Delta 1700 not a Matrix and cost just under £300.

We recently paid to have our roof replaced like for like, however a week later we received a letter from our local authority notifying us that we need building regulations at a cost of £200. If the roof was replaced like for like - no additional work then what are we paying for. We used exactly...

We recently purchased what we thought was a Matrix 1600 bath to have fitted, however we've found that the base seems to stain very easily and the stains don't come off (look like foot dirty footprints) even with bath cleaner, we've tried to contact our plumber but he seems to have...

Just moved into a semi detached and notice when you empty the bath the bathroom sinks makes a very loud gurgling noise...it's quiet frightening. Bathroom is upstairs..What could it be????

After stripping bedroom walls a plasterer friend has told me they need to be skimmed prior to decorating as hanging lining paper won't be sufficient and any further wallpaper hung will, at some point just come off. Is there anything I can apply to the walls prior to lining and wallpapering...

Sorry to bother, yet again, but what type of silicone do I use?

Thank you for your advice - it's my first house semi. I'll try your suggestions - thanks again, much appreciate it.

Thanks for the advice -we're more concerned about the fact you can feel a breeze and the cracks are quite large - suprised the previous owner just wallpapered over the cracks....

I'll take a photograph next time I'm there - is it likely to be an expensive job?
