    Entire house needs glazing - costs?

    Thanks for all your advice, it actually sounds a bit cheaper than expected and a lot quicker than I thought it would take. I had never even thought of things like 'load bearing' windows so thanks for that one :D I must admit I was tempted by the 8 windows for £1300 etc. but I'll be...

    Re-wire - one floor at a time?

    Re-wire - one floor at a time?

    I want to buy a house that hasn't been touched for at least 30 years, so no doubt it is going to require a complete rewire. I am going to be strapped for cash as this house is at the top of my budget so is there any way I can rewire a house from the bottom up or even one room at a time...

    From electric to central heating - cost

    I am wanting to put an offer on a house I've fallen in love with but the current owners haven't updated the house for over 30 years which means, as well as entirely new wiring, it will need gas central heating and it currently has a mixture of very very old electric heaters.
