Hello i have a task on my hands but i fear i have overestimated my abilities... And i can't just admit to my wife that i feel defeated. I need help measuring and calculating the new staircase so i don't screw up. It starts with left winder then straight up to landing left turn and straight up. I...

Have you actually been and worked on an very old house and taken brick out on most corners and under windows? I don't think those old wall ties are bad but defo not the best because they have rusted away from moisture.. I have learned a thing or two about these old uk houses... No need for such...

First of all make sure you have a good amount of NEW insulation in the attic because heat is rising up/gets cooled from top and the room gets colder. Old insulation might not be laid down properly it might be compressed too much or just forced in... What people tend to do is just cover up old...

good old bricks ...outside leaf lintel/ gap/ piece of wood/ gap/ inner leaf lintel There has been a piece of wood since the house was built under all the windows probably to keep the stuff from falling down and putting extra weight on plasterboard that is why they put a piece of wood in between...

Boys that is my old door and window !!!! I don't know who to trust anymore i found independent reviews about safestyle and those are the ones where people complain because in all the other places comments get taken away... So what is the difference from 700£ - 1200£ - 1800£ and 2000£ up, build...

Hi. I would like to hear your experience about one particular company and what i learned from my research and i need a better understanding how to match mortar from 1929 with 2019 cr*p We had good look around and decided to go with safestyle uk composite modern doors and side window fully...

Just an update for clueless people out there like i was.That was a lot easier than i initially thought its gonna be. Work was done in a couple of hours with my helper Ian big thanks to him. The plan was to go with the oak lintel but upon order there was a mess up and so on so we canceled the...

I would recommend fatmax (antivibe) hamer i love that thing. If i will need another one i will try Estwing hammer just because it has amazing reviews but is more pricey. You will feel noticable difference compared to standard hammers
