You have removed the loose paint only which has made it look untidy. Think I'd leave that for a winter and see what happens. Try and work out why the paint has come off and it might happen again.

Hp instant ink is £1.79 a month for 10 pages. That's another thing. We used to print loads but hardly anything now. Paperless society. Re mobile. Never once have I lost my phone or the battery has died on me in the last 20+ years so I'm past worrying about it.

Ceiling or wall? Solid or plasterboard? Lack of insulation so it's a cold spot so condensation forms at that spot? I would use toupret powder to fill as is. See what happens. 180 grade sandpaper on some flat wood and sand smooth. Give it a mistcoat of emulsion and see what happens. Other...

Artex that wasn't painted can seem a bit chalky. If you wet a bit the artex changes colour then dries out. This shows it hasn't been painted. The best way is to roll on a coat of gardz on but don't mess with it, as the artex will soften quickly until gardz dries out. Other way is to water...

Ash dump hole maybe. I've got this foggy memory of holes at the back of chimney to aid in cleaning it out. Maybe that?

It's a personal thing. It's like cash, as I don't carry any nor do I carry bank or credit cards. All my loyalty cards are on phone. All my payment methods are on the phone. If my phone dies while I'm out I know the risk but I have no need for cash or plastic cards. That's me though. I don't like...

If you forget your club card you can get the money difference when you next go in if you keep your receipt. So not worth kicking up a fuss

My wife logs on Tesco club card on the pc and prints the vouchers off for the mother in law. My mother in law won't use the app or account or even attempt to look at it. Not a problem though. I think the cost of printing and posting vouchers to millions of customers has got very expensive so...

Ohhh. Nothing my area but I'm not liking your Idea. A mate burnt out his boiler messing with it as it was unable to cool itself using radiators. He got the hot water going but it caused something to fail inside. .

Tiles coming off will cause all sorts of damages and may expose the cavity at the window sill. Up to you want you do. Wooden window sill are popular obviously. Tile or acrylic board's or whatever else takes your fancy as no specific trend. Go look at what is on offer at a local showroom

Stick job on... my builder as a last resort. At least the people showing interest will want the job. Sort of job a local builder would take on but I often think there aren't the building firms around now.

Tikkurila makes paint for a fireplace and stonelux.

Blink if you are on a budget. I've been looking and I'm going to buy reolink kit for my setup

That's artificial marble cultured stone made to look like marble. That's what you want to paint?

Yeah. Cut dry

You stick some new linings paper to the wall with masking tape. Big enough to cover with some overlap. Using a ruler or something straight, Use a sharp blade to cut through the new lining paper and the several layers of old paper. Get the old paper off to the cut mark. Use the lining paper as...

I run a 10m cable then fitted cat 5 ethernet plug on the end. Easy enough to do. You can buy plugs and the kit cheap enough. That's if you want to make your own cable and feed it through. If you're got dot and dab board it will have adhesive all the way around the board edge which is a problem...

I painted the outside of a house when customers were on holiday. By the 4th day, every overflow was shooting out water. Became a real problem! I turn off everything except the freezer, fridge and cable box. We have a neighbour watering garden so water stays on.

Could you dig out any bricks a couple of courses down, line with plastic dpm then fill with concrete.

If nobody uses the hot water or flushes the toilets and they don't shut off 100% then water can run out the overflow pipes. If I check on someone's house I flush toilets and run hot water to drain down header tank just incase. No need to run hot water with combi boiler because there is no...
