Thanks for your reply. Like you, I expect there will be planning requirements. Just wanted to get an idea on if it was possible or not for future :)

Hi there, I was looking at buying a house in this street, and noticed on Google Maps, you can actually see the side of the house before they bricked right up to the roof, it gives a very good view of the wooden rafters. The roofs on this street seem to have a nice high pitch compared to others...

Thanks very much for taking the time to reply. :)

Hi there, We were expecting a cylinder in our new build airing cupboard but the builders have put in a combi boiler instead. Can anyone tell me if the pipe work in there will be sufficient to heat the cupboard? We had viewed and turned down a property in the past which had the following in...

I am hoping to move into my first new build house soon and I am running through any snagging issues. I don't think the cement above this window looks quite right and wondered if anyone could tell me what it is referred to so I can put it on my list, and the builders will know what I am...

Thanks guys. I will take a closer look and see if I can find a weight rating. Just worried as neighbours don't seem to have any on their drives.

Hi there, I am hoping to move into our new build shared ownership property soon. We have been out to view it a couple of times and the only thing I have noticed is that there seem to be a considerable amount of drains on our drive. I counted six in total and another in the back garden making...

Hi, We were supposed to be getting a shed with our Shared Ownership new build house, but now it is almost complete, the Housing Association have said the builders are refusing to put sheds in. Not much we can do about it. I had wanted to extend the patio as they have not put that many slabs...

We have this mystery fused spur under our stairs. It is a rented house and the housing company have no idea what it does or is for. Does anyone have any ideas?

I see what you are saying with the card board!

Good idea, but do you think that would void any warranty as it is a brand new house?

Don't know if I would be capable of doing that, it might be out of my skillset!

Hi there, I am due to purchase a new build shared ownership property very soon. I have not been right into the loft as my ladder was not long enough, but like most new builds, it has a very thick layer of insulation. I don't want to void any warranties, but could really do with boarding a small...

Thanks. Looks very nice. How easy would this be to put on the wall? It's plaster board.

Mainly for toiletries (shower gels, shampoos, women's products, shavers, tooth paste, etc etc. My girlfriend has more products than I have ever seen in my lifetime - she has eczema. Need to try and make the absolute most out of the space there.

Hi there, I am trying to get some ideas on storage for this bathroom. It is quite small 2.37m by 1.93m and lacks any areas to put storage in. The radiator is not a towel one which is a pain, but this is a shared ownership new build so can't really make any major changes until the 2 year...

Do you think I should have a moan?

Couldn't find a portable expansion vessel, but looks like there is some boxing the pipe work all goes into, so maybe it is hidden?

Thanks, very helpful. As this is a Shared Ownership new build with two year developer snags period, would I be voiding any warranties in getting this done? We have already established if I were to change the two zoned thermostats, I would be. I am guessing I may need to wait two years for this also?

Thanks, ok makes sense. If we go for the property, and I see any plumbers roaming the site, I will ask. Whilst we are on the subject, how much do you think they would charge / is it possible to remove this radiator in the bathroom and put in a proper towel drying one? Not used to these square...
