    Ceiling crack nearly full length of room

    Just add some flexible filler next time you paint.

    Insulate garage door and fill gaps at side

    Don’t know if it helps but my door is a one piece Horman (?) four point locking. I fitted polystyrene to the metal faces using double sided tape covering the whole thing, using foil tape to join the sections together. Then I used the slim silver insulation fabric to cover the door, it has to be...

    Disturbed asbestos

    I would hazard a guess that it might not be artex? It looks more like that gritty ceiling paint that DIY sheds sold. I’d carefully take a sample and mail it to an independent tester who doesn’t have skin in the game

    Disturbed asbestos

    The risk is tiny You’d do more damage to health by doing anything than leaving it alone Artex had hardly any asbestos and it’s safe where it is. Worst case some duct tape over the damage is good enough. DO NOT vacuum any dust. Simply mop it up with a damp cloth and stick it in a poly bag in the...

    Hop-up

    We bought loads of them for work where we had 100’s of unskilled people using them Not been made aware of anyone falling off? Obviously they could have fallen and not mentioned it

    Insulating an existing concrete floor.

    How much level difference can you put up with? You would need to lay insulation under the carpet This means that you could have a step up into the room and or a step down to the outside (which you likely have. It could be a small step with minimal insulation or a bigger step with greater...

    Disabled access to Holiday Home abroad

    Any chance of a plan view showing the house/steps/boundary? And a photo? A lot of loading bays have a hinged fold down ramp that acts as a barrier when up. M/C benches tend to come with a ramp to get the bike onto it. You could maybe use that to get on, then move it for the “off” M/c benches...

    Disabled access to Holiday Home abroad

    I was going to suggest modifying a hydraulic motorcycle workbench . The ramp would be easier to install when there isn’t time to modify the building. With a bike lift (or similar);you could incorporate it into the house frontage to prevent theft plus add stability etc We had a massive dock lift...

    How to scrounge the equivalent of a £140,000 p.a. salary in state benefits...

    You do realise that the Government doesn’t actually pay anything unless the tapestry is damaged? It’s akin to a parent signing a rent guarantee form

    Crack in my ceiling should I be concerned?

    Is it plaster board or lathe and plaster? Is the landing a half landing or full? It’s likely to be plasterboard and just a crack in the skim. If you have a half landing, where there is a:90° turn, it’s possible that someone misses the short steps and jumps onto the area for fun. This could...

    How to determine angles for building an internal stud wall in a window bay

    Sometimes “right” looks wrong and “wrong” looks right. I would do it by eye, template it with hardboard/thin MDF

    Material to absorb water as backup

    After doing diy plumbing, I wrap a piece of loo paper around joints which changes in appearance if it gets wet. I also put a foil container under any suspect places to catch drips and look every couple of days. At work I had an AV studio that, for reasons only known to the architects, had...

    Trump is suing the BBC for Ten Billion USD.

    The BBC should use the same tactics as Pulitzer are using. Force full disclosure of Trump’s tax affairs, medical history, financials, past criminal history and civil losses.
