Cheers for the info.......... trouble is we are talking wales here........... I already know that work has been done without any paper..........(It actually suits us and has been done properly, it is also quite clearly photographed on the for sale photos so clearly we didn't do it :D :D...

Pictures would help us to agree exactly what your problem is...... BUT in the meanwhile................. only the very foolish have ANY kind of work done based on only one quote! You appear to live in London which makes it even worse! London is FULL of experts looking to empty your...

@ Freddie, .........property is a 1930`s (ish) semi - which is why I am confused. I understand that article 4 is sometimes used when a property is on a main road (which this is) - It close to a school too. we are even more confused because frontage wise the plot is already filled, the...

Moving very soon (I hope!) searches have revealed that permitted development is restricted......... What exactly does this mean? the Authority I will be under is very vague on the answer to this :? Does it mean full planning permission is required for...

Nope - ply is best (full stop) ...........up to you and your trimming skills re the skirting boards ............I am not a fitter but an ex-retailer ............silicon can cause as many problems as it solves (stand by for outrage from fitters) ...........remember silicon will NOT...

I presume you mean "vinyl"????? Lino is a very old (but still available) product, and also one that is almost a forgotten skill - fitting wise! sheet vinyl will eventually "mould" itself to any imperfections in the floor beneath it. If your floor is not perfect then you need to board it...

WTF has that got to do with this thread???????????? ..................dis you not read my posts????????????????? Are you a troll??????????????????????????????????????? I am retired - I do not give a F**k ..............what is your excuse???????????????????????????????

[/url] I sell flooring...........(used to I am now retired) I did so for over 30 years............... Going on the course does not mean you can fit this (or indeed any) type of flooring (the people running the course are only interested in their fee, not your competency!!!!) My...

£850 including supplying the ply is cheap - you estimate 5 days work..... day rate is at least £200 per day up here!!!! BUT - you tell us this job is for an influential client............ so........... If you can live with the "wage" then go for it

Amtico and indeed ANY type of LVT flooring requires a lot of floor preparation before "sticking down the floor" - otherwise it lifts! with a wooden sub-floor this MUST include ply......(and almost certainly screed as well (on top of ply) as to the "stability" or "integrity" of your wooden...

can only comment from prices "up-north" ........This type of flooring and the installation method is a fitters birthday.. it is one of the most expensive type of floor fitting going Ply - attracts a cost (labour wise) Flooring does too!!!! you should not charge any extra for...

Hmmmmm......... OK in my late teens I was a committed amateur cyclist....... this was in the late 70`s to nearly 80`s I was an area time trial champion twice (at time trialling) at the time I rode the best equipment available (it was 531 tubing) I even was one of the first in the...

Blimey - may be a resident within 3 weeks :shock: So next question.......... How or what is the best method of fixing my uprated joists into the brick party wall which is currently "filled" with chimney breasts - which are in use with multi fuel fires? Do I hope current inadequate...

It would I agree, but within days of moving in I need the storage (says the boss), so membrane first to stop the dust, then clean out the old insulation, put in some bigger joists (9x3 probably) then insulate and lay floor............. should be done in an hour or so :shock: :shock: :shock:

Cheers Freddy you confirm my "musings" I (ideally wish to "add" some insulation to the rafters............ I assumed a 50mm gap was a good idea and that would allow 50mm of PU insulation.........

OK since retiring the missus fancied moving to the coast..... managed to sell and successfully offer on a new house.......... We have realised that almost all Welsh houses very rarely have roofing felt under the tiles(amongst many other problems :shock: ) the house we have bought...

Your post is rather confusing, you say cheap but durable and easy to clean... then you ask about buying expensive ....that is precisely what you have already found......... Yes underlay costs as much as the cheaper carpets, you will then also need gripper rods too and the fitting price...

actually it will be in Wales where currently "the plan" is perfectly legal.... currently have property in Cheshire East and I think its Ok here too EDIT - Dad? .....is that you? :lol: :lol: :lol:

thanks for the clarification ..........understood!
