Hiya guys, our Laminate needs replacing, it's in a long hallway, laid on cement floor. Floor is in great condition. We went to our local carpet store to buy some Laminate with fitting etc, but was told people are using Vinyl now, wood effect Vinyl, when asked he said it's a lot more durable and...

Bumpaty Bump, anyone?

Hiya guys, I need to cover an area in a room where sanding has peeled old dry paint from underneath, it's only a small area, but I'm not much of a DIY person, whats the easiest way to fix this? I painted over it thinking that would work but it didn't. Someone recommended Polyfilla Spray and a...

Hiya guys, our home is filled with 8 of these cheapy doors, on pricing up new doors it's a fair bit of money and we can't afford to replace them all for a long time. Someone suggested spray painting them white, but wanted to ask people with more knowledge on if this would work or not? It would...

Just had some work done in bathroom that included the whole bath area being re-tiled. The whole job is immaculate, except one wall, for some reason the tiles on this one wall lean in to the right, the tile edge isn't straight going up the wall and it's driving me bonkers, I never did the work...

What kind of paint?

Ok strange one here, I have a Samsung Laptop that's been fantastic, but a mark has appeared on the left mouse button, none of us press in the area the mark is (we press more to the left) all I can think of is something may have been spilt on it and left, it looks like a wear/scuff mark, and its...

We have a chest of draws we bought couple of years ago, and as with a lot of draws, the bottoms keep falling out, due to use, over time etc. I can't afford a new set just yet, and was wondering the best way to repair them? The plywood seems fine, it just pops out all the time. I did a Google...

Not everyone can afford a £3600 sofa.

Thanks, I thought of doing that, but the sofa is still in really good condition, like new minus the faded arms in small areas. So it would seem a little overkill.

Go back and read your advice, it was totally useless. The next guy might have acted a prick as well, but at least I got something constructive from his post (Argos sofa's are useless) But back to the issue, you clearly don't know, so I'll ask if anyone who DOES have a clue, will let me know what...

Thanks for the dumb answer, of course I have, BUT I have never heard or used this product so I am asking here for advice, sending me to Google just puts me back to square one, next please?

We bought a black sofa from Argos about 2 years ago, it is the main sofa, but the arms of the sofa have faded color slightly with people leanging on them etc, the sofa is still as good as new frame wise, and 90% of the fabric is pristine, but the arms are faded a lighter black in areas. My 6...

Need to ask a couple of questions before I start the hallway. - Current laminate has bathroom sealent put into the edge gaps around the hallway, I presume cos the front door is directly in the hallway, so rain etc. I will likely do the same, but how can I easily get the old sealent up? Is...

We have decorated here before (rented house) and never thought much of it, but now we have flaking on the edges of our bathroom woodchip ceiling, I looked at all the other ceilings in my home and noticed something weird. Every single ceiling in my home is woodchip, but around the edge of the...
