Hi all, I'm making a patio table from softwood. It's a farmhouse style design, so the legs have their end grain touching the patio. While I've left them standing in wood preserver to suck up as much as they'll take, I also want to attach plastic feet to the bottom to really keep the end grain...

Hi all, Been quoted £1,100 to replace and repoint the ridge and hip tiles on my 1930s semi detached. Don't think it's been touched in nearly 100 years so starting to look a bit crumbly. Job would take one day plus maybe some tidying up on second day. No scaffolding required. The whole house is...

The flat roof on top of my bay window that runs all the way up the house to bottom of pitched roof above first floor needs replacing. The previous felt has worn through, torn on the corners and such (see photo). What would anyone recommend as material for replacement? You can't see it so it...

Hi all, I've just used Easifill 60 for the first time as was recommended it. It went on a treat and smoothed off nicely with the sander. However, I got some water on it while washing an adjacent wall (nearly a week after it was first applied), and noticed that the water makes the Easifill...
