There is a huge damp patch which has spread over time - when it rains hard you can see the drips running down the wall too. It's now so big it never dries out at all.
Roofer first came out a year ago, and (so he said) put on new lead flashing to stop a leak around the chimney that was seeping in to the internal wall. All fine for a few months then the problem got worse, after many calls and excuses he came out again first said it was some cracks that needed...
Thanks guys, I don't think I will risk it with the tile paint. I have coloured tiles and wanted to try to neutralise a bit for the sale. I think I'll just retouch the grout and hope the buyer likes my colour choice too!!!
Would appreciate some insights from anyone who's used tile paint, questions are:

If I wanted to...

I recently purchased a great looking, but rather heavy light for my lounge. The problem I have is how to fix it to the ceiling. I know the best thing would be to attach it to a joist but I don't have access to the ceiling from above to see where this is. Anyway if I moved it this would...
I've had an old fireplace opened up and fitted a decorative fire surround however the bricks inside are both sooty, and the render/bricks are crumbling away in places. I want to repair and paint the brickwork to finish the job. It is intended to be a decorative focal point for the room and...
Whilst painting my new bathroom I have scratched the front of my handbasin with the ladder. There's now a silvery mark there. Is there anything I can use to cover it up. I tried touching it up with a bit of white gloss paint but it won't adhere to the surface.
Any suggestions gratefully...
Is it normal practice for a Corgi registered installer to get another installer to sign off the installation of a new central heating system? I'm beginning to wonder if the guy who did the work was registered himself. I didn't employ him directly as he was a sub-contractor of my builder - or...
It seems the manufacturers think they can get away with charging a premium on integrated appliances because people are so keen to hide the hideous designs of the freestanding ones they make
Why do intergrated appliances, specifically washing machines, cost so much more? I have purchased an appliance door - can I just stick this on any machine?
