Hi, I have pretty ugly old concrete slab in back garden. Unfortunately I had built deck on top of some parts, and removing it anyway would be a hassle. Instead I'm thinking about putting resin bound gravel on top of it, as it seams it will look both good and function well. The job seems pretty...

I wanted to repoint my patio + fix some wobbly slabs. But it turned out a lot of them (23) were actually wobbly and after taking them out, I'm kind of stuck what to actually do. The original mortar was pretty high and applied in "blobs" so I was thinking I should just remove some of it and use...

I had decided to remove raised flower bed in my garden, as the wooden supporting edge deteriorated. However I haven't realised that the fence base panels weren't put deep enough, so now if I make the soil level with the rest of the garden, there is exposed soil. And I fear it might deteriorate...

Hi, I'm about to fit semi recessed basin into the worktop and we've decided we would like to have small overhang above the units (30mm to base unit = 18mm door + 12 mm overhang). So before I will do cutting I just wanted to doublecheck if my approach is right, as I only have one chance to cut it...

Hi, I have started redo my bathroom and after removing units and tiles from the floor it had uncovered damaged pipe that was leaking slight moisture into the ply the tiles were lied on and underlying floorboards. The floorboard had dried, but still looked nasty, so I wanted to replace them...
