    Re-plastering my hall, strip walls or put up new board

    .... When I removed the T&G wood from the ceiling (downstairs hall, stair well and upstairs landing) I found above that was artex and had 3 big holes in the artex so thought a new sheet would be best for that. The walls where pretty rough and are going to need re-wired as well to...

    Re-plastering my hall, strip walls or put up new board

    Hi, We are re-decorating our hall and was wondering if it is ok to just tear down the existing plaster board rather than strip the wallpaper off and put up new plaster board? Cheers Rezarf

    nearly all done, filled in the gaps with the foam, the gaps were shocking, will need to at some point get new windows and repair the damaged areas around the widow as previous installation looks like they threw them up and thought forget about these massive gaps and loose rubble. Got all the...

    Steel beam and timber on top of it making my floor uneven.

    took the carpet up for a closer look and lifted some floor boards. the wood on top of the beam is there to make up height but it is too thick and has 2 floor boards joined over the top of it causing it to be uneven. No idea what the steel beam is for but it has the floor joists...

    Steel beam and timber on top of it making my floor uneven.

    The walls run opposite the joists. The more i think about it probably. I think the main part of the floor which is bad is above the steel beam where it is raised and bevelled, i think this is because the steel beam has a piece of wood on top of it and it is too thick causing the raised floor...
