I need to paint this old tiled fireplace Any advice please on how to go about this?

No I mean the layer below the laminate which you identify as fibreboard.

1930s I think

I'm in the process of removing lino and hardboard. I noticed though there is underlay in the adjacent kitchen that looks like it's crumbling. What is this stuff made of and why is is crumbling like this? Also, is it a health hazard as I need to remove is part before the lino can be laid

Asked Pimlico plumbers a while back about another job and we're way too expensive.

Cheez, If I'm a plumber why on earth would I be posting here! If you must know he hasn't been answering the phone and I need to get this sorted

Yes,now wondering how long it'll take to do the work

It's a mate's rates but I've no idea on plumbing rates or how long it'll take

These are local plumbers. Walking distance although I get your drift

No smells cing from the hose. I've got a lot of work needs sorting out so want to keep costs dow

Made a mistake, one quote was £120 I have no opinion on which plumber I prefer

£200 and £220

I'm getting wildly different quotes on taking out three taps and replacing with the one I've bought. As a ballpark figure what would be a reasonable cost? The taps are here. The tap under the kitchen sinks looks probalmatic though

Sorry there is a drip. Is that easily fixed?

No leaking

I had a plumber fix my leaking toilet by cementing around the soil pipe. The trouble is the cement on the left hand side is above the level of the flooring. I can't put marine plywood over the flooring so can the cement be ground down with an angle grinder to make it level?

Solid connection and no leaks or smell I flushed the toilet several times to see if there was any water around the pan connector and the pipe. The chunk of cement was around the base of the connector. There is still a chunk attached to the other side. I can't understand the rest of what you have...

I can't tell I the joists are fitted to the wall. One joist is lower but by not much at all that I hardly noticed it. l'm checking to see if the leak comes from the pipe because of the green marks Getting a chippie in to see how much it will cost. Thanks for your response though

I found a rotten floorboard next to the toilet. It seems as if the joist on the left is lower than the right one.There also seems as if a chuck of cement has come away from the cylindrical tube at the back. The joists are Sound. Is this a complicated job to fit a floor board?

Wow I didn't know that. Thanks for the info.
