    Choosing a builder/landscaper

    I wish to have a garage built in my back garden, a new patio laid and an artificial lawn installed. I have had several quotes for this project now and am trying to decide which company/companies to go with. I have whittled it down two choices but am unsure of which route to choose and wondered...

    Re-pointing of tiled path - more work needed than 1st agreed

    Drilling a 40mm hole in a cast iron downpipe?

    Thanks for the replies. :wink: Had I gone ahead I think I would have been fairly confident. However, we've been rationalising our plants and my wife now doesn't think it's worth putting a waterbutt in the front garden, but I might still keep the kit in case she changes her mind again (she has...

    Ripped vinyl - how to make good/mend

    Hi! I have a high chair that has a number of rips and tears on the cushion area where my son sits. The cushion is constructed in layers, with the top being vinyl (wipe clean) and the layer beneath being polyester. What I was wondering is if it is possible to repair the holes using glue by...

    Sandstone bay window - how to repair?

    The quotes were: £235 £310 £540 We went for the middle quote. The most expensive was to install a 3 layer system. None itemised the cracked mortar. What do you think of the filler I posted in my last post?
