I wonder if I can ask for your collective expertise We have a strange spot on on this wall which keeps reappearing , despite my best efforts with Zissner Peelstop to solve it. As you can see from the photos, this room is the lowest part of the house and behind the brick wall is a void under...

Think you all for your kind help and advice

Thanks. I don't know. We moved in 12 years ago and they were laid long before that. I assume it's just been wear and age that has caused it

I have just seen that the top step leading to our front door has sunk and pulled away from the doorstep, as well as from the sidewall. Is this a straightforward repair for someone? I don't think there is anything untoward or more suspicious happening here (eg subsidence). Presumably it needs...

Thank you Madrab - yes the Cubico shoreviews aren't great. Which trays do you favour? (slim, not slime!) In terms of the shower unit, I am prepared to pay for a good quality, high pressure thermostatic shower bar with a fixed waterfall head and a hand shower. I can see the hasngrohe and grohe...

Thank you for your advice

Thanks. So I'll buy the Guards then as I just want to be sure it will work

That's very helpful. Thank you
