I wonder if I can ask for your collective expertise We have a strange spot on on this wall which keeps reappearing , despite my best efforts with Zissner Peelstop to solve it. As you can see from the photos, this room is the lowest part of the house and behind the brick wall is a void under...

Think you all for your kind help and advice

Thanks. I don't know. We moved in 12 years ago and they were laid long before that. I assume it's just been wear and age that has caused it

I have just seen that the top step leading to our front door has sunk and pulled away from the doorstep, as well as from the sidewall. Is this a straightforward repair for someone? I don't think there is anything untoward or more suspicious happening here (eg subsidence). Presumably it needs...

Thank you Madrab - yes the Cubico shoreviews aren't great. Which trays do you favour? (slim, not slime!) In terms of the shower unit, I am prepared to pay for a good quality, high pressure thermostatic shower bar with a fixed waterfall head and a hand shower. I can see the hasngrohe and grohe...

Hi all , I am redoing my shower cubicle/unit after no end of problems with my current wetroom style shower ( Big mistake!!) The builder I am using has quoted me for some fittings but I am bit unsure as I really want to make sure they are good quality and reliable - a Cubico Shower door/frame...

Thank you that's really helpful

Thank you

I'm sorry I don't know. This wall would have been plastered long before we moved in 12 years ago.

A few weeks ago I asked for advice on this bubbling paint and you kindly suggested it was a lime reaction to vinyl Matt emulsion So I stripped back the paint yesterday to apply a coat of Guards and this is what lies behind the blistered paint. There seems to be a darker spot within the...

So I stripped back the paint yesterday to apply a coat of Guards and this is what lies behind the blistered paint. There seems to be a darker spot within the plaster. Does this confirm the view above that this is a lime reaction with the emulsion in this particular patch?

Thank you for your advice

Thanks. So I'll buy the Guards then as I just want to be sure it will work

Out of curiosity I already have a pot of BIN Aqua. Is this the same as Guards and could be used for this? Or should I use Guardz? Thanks

That's very helpful. Thank you

Thank you. Yes it was a Dulux vinyl emulsion paint. What would be the best way to repair this?

I have a small patch of blistered paint from where the room was repainted last year. The previous paint ( which was on for about a decade was also blistered in exactly the same way. Can anyone guess what the issue may be and a remedy? This is an interior wall and the plaster is old. Behind the...

Thank you. That's really helpful.

Hi we recently repainted our white staircase with a white oil paint and on only one post it has started to show some pinkish stains.i repainted it and the pink has reappeared. Does anyone know why this might have happened?

My mum has just dropped a plate on her 20 year old amtico tiles and has caused a chip which she is very upset about. Is there any way the chip can be filled and repaired? If I can fill it then I'll try to paint it as carefully to match and disguise it as possible? Many thanks
