You can buy adapters or reducers to suit so not really a big problem.

You will find it an advantage as any water getting in is already being managed via the pump so it has potentially saved you a small fortune. At worst if it needs a new pump they are fairly cheap to replace and you can just reconnect it to the existing piping.

Prices can vary from between 50p to £2 per kilo although some Councils will collect it for free while others have a fee so worth checking their websites. Richmond Upon Thames, for example, charge £44 for up to 200kg according to ...

I always use Henry / James / Charles vacs as they are just so good and cope with anything I throw at them and dust is never an issue. Use the white bags and you will be fine.

It's a full time job apparently !

It is just the felt that has sagged and the structure is fine so you need to tuck the upper piece of felt down behind the lower felt so it looks like the bay to the right of it. You could then insert a timber if you wish to stop it recurring but not essential.

Try looking on the Rightmove website for similar houses for sale on your street and also houses that have sold as many of them will have the estate agents photographs on so you may well be able to see either images of a similar cellar or at least a floorplan and measurements of one.

Could be any number of suppliers as it is a very popular style. Try looking underneath the worktop as they are often marked with the manufacturers name or brand.

Why not use a tower up to just above the cill height and then remove the opener on your window and board through into the room using timbers on the cill so as not to damage the frame and use Spandecks or similar which you can fit uprights and a handrail to and for the short amount of time it...

Yes you are safe to fill the gaps and expanding foam will do a good job of it and cut it flush once cured.

It looks like the Twinplas style as below...

If it were you i would cut it as low as around 3 inch above the tiles as it would still function as planned in the location it is in and you have no worries about Building Control coming knocking. I would also fit one of these to avoid birds falling in...

These guys can help.... https://www.simplysips.co.uk/ I built my double garage with them and very quick, easy to build and strong. I have no connection to the firm but was very happy with the product and service.... and other similar firms are on the internet too so worth browsing.

We can all discuss this from now until Xmas but you need to actually try something to stop it so start with sealing under the glass, if that doesn't work then consider looking at the putty and perhaps replacing it with sealant which , to be honest, is probably better for a shed given they are...

If you have any photo's it always help but if you are on good terms with your neighbours then voice your concerns over the bonding gutters as there should be no reason why they cannot slate straight through and the roofers are clearly going to charge them extra for supplying and installing the...

Any good tarmac firm will advise...
