Aw dear! I can't get them changed in time and I've been waiting weeks for the plasterer. If the liner is replaced later on, it shouldn't cause too much of an issue could it? Alternatively, I was thinking perhaps I could burn the pain off of the liner and then stain the wood to the same...

Does anyone know if the above is a good product? I'm just looking through the catalogue now and I've seen the Premium White Oak skirting which looks nice. But then I've seen they do Redwood Pine which you also have to stain or varnish. The doors I am going to have will be Oak Veneer. Is...

Did you fit the skirting yourself? And the walls look good - did you dot and dab and then get a plasterer to skim over? Sorry if I'm asking questions that have already been answered.

I've got a plasterer coming in on Monday to fully plaster my living room - have hacked off all the old stuff and gone back to the brickwork. I've got to take off skirting and architrave but now I'm worried about the door liner. I'm changing all the woodwork which is old painted over pine and I...

You've done really well. I've enjoyed looking through this thread.

Warm water with a bit of washing up liquid. Wipe over with a sponge and then clean water and sponge to rinse off.

Yes, I've discovered its really to be used on a tablet so will have a go with that. Thanks for all your help.

Hi - thank you. I've had a go and the software is easy to use. It gives several template houses which you can change the windows on. It it has given me an idea of how my windows would look (not sure if I like my look though!!!). I will keep on looking for some software that allows you to...

Hi We want to use an app to see how the style of windows will look on our house. I've had a go out downloading YOURPAD from the Eurocell website but it doesnt seem to work on my laptop. I think the app is made for an Android or Ipad only. Can anyone recommend an alternative product for use...

Thanks, appreciated.

Hi We really need to board our loft out for storage but equally we will want to insulate it. I'd be grateful for a list of materials and info on the best method of insulation for this situation. Many thanks George

Many thanks. I will try the rebalancing. Funnily enough the people who are moving in have just been here and they said the radiators were plenty hot enough and the overall temperature of the house and the living room was really comfortable. They said I was worrying myself over nothing. I...

I've always been able to muddle through with the back-up of a gas fire. However the gas fire is one of those decorative sorts where most of the heat goes up the chimney. I'm now moving out of the house and it will be let out. It's one thing me muddling through, but I wouldn't expect anyone...

Hi I've been living in the same house for 19 years and the radiators (two of them) in the living room have never worked properly. Basically for one rad to get fully hot, you have to turn the TRV down on the other one. Originally I had a back boiler but about 9 years ago, I had a powerflush...

OK, I shall google plasterers in Exmouth. The person who uses lime would be handy as I need the fireplace (behind log burner) rendered with a lime mix. Thanks for your help Steve.

I don't actually know any plasterers - we haven't moved in yet so I have asked locally for recommendations. I've been given three names and they all say the same thing. I just spoke to my dad and he is trying to convince me D and D would be good because you get a lovely finish - but if you...

Devon quite near Exmouth.

Thanks - Appreciated.

Hi I've been phoning round trying to get a plasterer and they all only do 'dot and dab' now. Do I persevere and keep going through yellow pages, or should I settle for dot and dab :-(

The ceilings are being renewed with new plasterboard. I guess the plasterer will have to do a thin skim over the boards. When I've had plastering or should I say skimming done before - it's generally been at least one average size room per day. I was wondering if it should be roughly the same...
