    Electrics for Shed

    Thanks both. Makes sense. Will ensure these are. A electrician has quoted 1600 for a single day job. If you ask me, that's day theft. Will be looking out for multiple quotes before finalisng one.

    Leaking through top of bathroom and toilet window surrounds

    Whatever the issue is, please dont waste time. Try and fix asap. Water leaks, what so ever should be sorted ASAP. Else it will make you spend more money (and time) sooner or later in the future.

    Cracks on the ceiling close to the bay window

    Agreed. That is one thing that could have happened. But paint discolouration at just one edge roughly 20-25 cms width make me scratch my head that it is very likely a leak (or overflow) from the gutters (at least that is what I believe) plus cold air/hot air moisture - condensation which let the...

    Cracks on the ceiling close to the bay window

    Not sure why the crack appeared. Few weeks back, after some rain, I noticed a discolouration in the paint in the corner close to the bay window and also bulges across the ceiling. When I ripped off the wall paper, I noticed that the wall paper bulged because of the water leak as the bulge on the...

    Which Laminate flooring ? and How to go about installation ?

    Ok... Is damp proof membrane really required ? If we use polythene dmp membrane before laying underlay, then what if all dampness and moisture get trapped and sealed below floor boards and cause boards to damage / rott getting moulds in the long run ?

    Viesmann Vitedans 100-W 35kw Boiler - Central Heating not working

    I believe you mean TRV's on radiator ? It is installed and they are all either "opened full" or opened "half ". Is there a way to check that out ?
