I used some soft wood for making my landing stairs child safe.
I realised towards the end it was softwood - rookie mistake. However, it looks good and I think will hold but will obviously take a battering.
Is there a way to toughen the wood?
Thanks
I've got a wooden batton at the front door and it's got to stay put. However, I'm unsure how to make this look good. I guess I'll still need the 10mm gap - so suggestions for how to finish this edge appreciated.
Also, I'm going to start at the door jamb in the pic. Is it right to only go as far...
I think this is for an old door bell.
I was going to remove it but then noticed it seems to be wired into the plug below it.
Is it just a case of unwiring it from the plug below?
Thanks
I was going to have my floor screeded but since discovered, it's perfectly level with the old floor tiles on.
I'm going to use an underlay membrane and then float the flooring on top.
Do I need a DPM?
Thanks
Yesterday I had my carpenter put in a new floor board in the upstairs hall. I pre-warned him pipes were underneath and we had a bit of banter about how I would like to learn more about carpentry etc 5 minutes later he comes down to tell me he's hit a pipe... 45 minutes of sitting with my thumb...
I've never done anything with flooring before.
We have old tile-like things under our carpet and I want to lay some sort of flooring on top of this.
It is a downstairs floor, does this mean I don't need a damp proof membrane applied first?
My plan was to just buy some self-levelling...
Ive unscrewed the plastic as much as i can. Dont seem to be any other screws to turn. Does anyone know how this comes off? If i pull it off and break it am i going to flood the bathroom or will it just remain on until I get a replacement? Thanks
