    Might be about to have a falling-out with my MOT station...

    Sounds like it shouldn't be on the road irrespective of your MOTer failing to spot it first time.

    Extending using an existing outside cavity wall

    PD has nothing to do with achieving the necessary Regs approval, and how will you fit the wall ties leaving just one skin? Honestly cut your losses, use the foundation by all means but the wall is not worth saving.

    Extending using an existing outside cavity wall

    That won't get you anywhere near enough to meet current regs.

    Extending using an existing outside cavity wall

    Well ignoring the dpc issue for starters you'd have to insulate the wall internally, which is fine if you intend to build the rest of the extension like that but a PITA if not so I would say by all means use the foundation if it's suitable but probably more hassle than it's worth trying to use...

    Correct hinge to solve this problem?

    So in your photo is the sack truck the WM was carried in on presumably, have you used it already? Otherwise you can reject it and get one that fits.

    Neighbour drain, help needed!

    It's fine if its all done by the book ie with the water company's and BC approval and you're happy with the compensation. I would hazard that you should probably engage a suitable solicitor to handle the legal side of it though, your appointment/choice at his expense.

    Correct hinge to solve this problem?

    Should have bought a different washing machine, you can even get extra slim WMs if it's such an issue.

    Stairwell clearances

    Current Building Regs would expect 1100mm clear width between the handrails assuming it's a fire fighting stair but there are obviously older properties where this does not apply. So the regs that were in place at the time of construction would need to be adhered to, the oldest historic Building...

    The phase out of ice engines..

    Here's an idea, how about all the EV whores keep out of a thread not about them for a change? They won't.

    Soundproofing question.

    You're not gonna like any of the answers you receive on here, bottom line is, no one can say if/how anything you do from the underneath will be effective and whether it meets your expectations for the outlay/work involved, sound insulation is so subjective. What is the (floor) construction/age...

    Bookshelf notch too small for skirting

    Just use a handsaw from Screwfix for £5 and cut it yourself, I'd put money on it not being deep enough as well as not tall enough.

    Screws for door hinges?

    Rather than vilifying you for your crap post, what would help is if you say what are the frames made of, what are the doors made of, what are the hinge types? Then you might get somewhere.
