    Wobbly loo

    Well, I chose someone with a good rep though needless to say I wont be recommending him! Hopefully this 3rd attempt should put an end to those, erm, unwanted motions in the bathroom! :lol:

    Wobbly loo

    Hi! I had a new bathroom professionally fitted a few weeks ago and am less than satisfied with much of it. The worst is that the loo is not attached the floor properly/at all and the cistern is not attached to the wall, despite there being 2 screw holes there ready to use. As a result theres...

    Emulsioning over shiny surface

    Thank you. Is it OK to use indoors - possibly a daft question but I'm a complete amateur :roll: . I got the hang of mist coats by looking at this forum (I even give friends advice now!) so there's no reason why I shouldn't be able to tackle this.

    Awkward bit of kitchen floor

    Preparation before Unibonding

    Hi We're having the kitchen walls and ceiling Unibonded and skimmed. Do you think we need to wash the surfaces before the work is done to remove any grease and dust? If so, is there a particular cleaner that we should use (sugar soap?) Sorry for such a basic question but we're complete...

    Ceiling light for kitchen

    Hi. I need a new light fitting for the kitchen, but have been told by the electrician (who was sent by the insurance people and is too busy to do private work) that I may not have much ceiling left to fit a light to! What does this mean and will it limit my choice of fitting? Also, it's a very...
