Morning, I have exposed floorboards in my living room and over the past few years I've noticed they have started to become a bit loose underfoot in places. I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a decent fixing that won't be too much of an eyesore secure them back down please? Cheers in advance.

Evening, I've just laid some 3:1 sharp sand and cement screed on a small area of my kitchen floor and it looks different to how I expected. From the YouTube videos I watched it's more plain in texture and easy to feather, but mine seems very gritty with a look of concrete. Both the sand...

Cheers, I'll give it a go. Hand saw or jigsaw?

Not yet, the scribe is cut and in the picture the board on the right has been propped up to meet the elevated 9mm end. It does look slightly lower on the pic which wouldn't be good if secured.

Morning, I'm hoping someone may be able to help. I'm currently in the process of pricing up some stair handrails (wall mounted) for 2 flights of stairs and a separate horizontal run around 1m. I'm hoping to get a 3.6m and a 4.2m Hemlock HRD hand rail and use the off cut from the 4.2 for the...

Evening, I'm planning on misting some fresh plaster this weekend (drying since before Xmas) and I noticed a few drying cracks by the timber door casings. Considering we had 2 landings and stairs done I'm happy to only find a few. I plan on racking them out a bit before applying some filler...

Hi again, could anyone tell me the style of of the 2 pots I have in my picture possibly? Cheers

Thanks Nige F, so you fit these around the top crown section of the pots, tighten up and that's it? I honestly thought you needed a special type for crown pots so this is really helpful. Thanks again
