Hi, I the process of turning my garage into a home gym, went to pull up the caroet today thinking it was just laying there but previous owners had glued it down. Got all the caroet up finally but wondered if I need to get all this black stuff up. I'm laying gym tiles (1mx1mx20mm) and...

Thanks appreciate the reply I have to admit I'm not a massive fan of them, just figured they'd be handier if they worked than not at all. One day plan to upgrade everything kitchen wise but probably not for some time, appreciate the help, thanks

Hi, I wondered if anyone might know. I have just moved into a house and there's 3 undercupboard spotlights in the kitchen that look like the picture attached None if the lights work and I wondered if it's likely something simple like changing the bulbs or an electric issue (checked the...

Yeah it looks like this

I found out it was built by countryside residential if that helps

Thanks all, have asked this question in a few places and most say now days they don't have an issue with timber framed I guess my concern mostly was if that ever changed and lending became harder, therefore making it harder to sell. But the majority don't seem to think it's a big deal...

I must admit I don't really know any further details other than heading it was timber framed, though I did wonder why it was only mentioned after the offer was accepted (maybe in too dubious) Regarding the changing the structure the only thing we had in mind was converting the loft info a...

Hi all. Didn't know where else to ask, other than googling Looking at buying a house and saw a lovely one for sale, out an offer in and then was told after the offer was accepted it's a timber framed house (shows my level of knowledge or lack of) Read pros and cons to a timber built house...

I assume so too, was originally told it's a combi boiler. Looking at the old floorplan before current owners moved in, it's not on that floor plan and boiler was in same place then as it was now. But yeah I assume it's water cylinder now too Thanks

Thanks I'll have to get confirmation from the agent, currently the floor plan shows everything, so just one bathroom, a downstairs loo and they did at one point have a shower in the larger bedroom, and there's some plumbing still there for that but no shower in at the moment for some reason...

Hi all I'm looking at a house for sale and just wondered if anyone can tell me what the circle symbol (in the cupboard) in bedroom 3 is at all please. I assume it's a hot water cylinder, but was told it had a combi boiler (boiler is in the garage) I did try to Google but couldn't find...

Thanks for the replies, appreciate it. Definitely given me something to think about.

Hi, not sure which section to post this in really. Looking at a house for sale at the moment and found this one, the issue I have with it, in one of the bedrooms, it's boxes above where the stairs run, which cuts quite alot in the bedroom making it abit odd (especially as it's by the window) I...

Hi Recently I'm my kitchen where two prices of laminate meet I could see that they are starting to swell up. I thought it was water damage form cleaning down and it going between the gap. I put a glass worktop protector on tom of the join and moved it today and it looks worse. It doesn't...

Cheers all. Appreciate it. I'll keep my dehumidifier I use it for drying laundry as I don't have a tumble dryer and to remove excess moisture that would create drying inside. I stupidly didn't know you could have the windows slightly open while still locked, so I did this last night and this...

That's the issue indont know what I can do the reduce the moisture. I have a dehumidifier that runs to dry washing on an airer, there's only 3 of us in the house, cooking I've upgraded our extraction fan, same in the bathroom and it's mostly overnight the condensation appears.

I think you're right now you mention it! Ok it's not leaking so that's good, just getting abit loose where silicone is starting to come away. But doesn't sound like it's a big deal. Cheers

I would but some are downstairs which I don't want to leave open overnight and one is my baby's room and indont want her to get cold the other ones I do leave open abit at the moment

Hi, I've added some photos. Not sure how clear they are, but basically when doing our house up, I think I hired the worst plumber imaginable and when we had tenants on our house before we moved in ourselves we had found out the initial plumber fitted the hot and cold tap the wrong way round...

Hi, Had some new windows fitted 3.5 years ago, but now especially when cold get condensation build on the inside of the windows (not between the glass) If it's not wiped away regularly, it can get mouldy. Noticed abit of mould on the top of the windows today on the plaster. And had abit of...
