Wow really sorry to hear this . Mine does not leak so I have just left it as it is .

The opening for the roof lantern is slightly larger than the roof lantern. Therefore, an additional timber was added to the timber upstand to make it fit. Also lead flashing and silicone were used to make better water tight. Could this cause problems and would the roof need to be removed and...

Thanks for the feedback, I doubt they would want to do that. As they just spent a fortune doing it up and may not want to rip up again for extra 2m.

I am looking to put in a full planning application for a 5.5m rear extension. My adjoining neighbour has a similar extension . But they added a small indent of 2m to this as it would have overshadowed my property as I had not extended. But now I am looking to extend full rear width , will I...

I had a water leak in my bathroom a couple of months ago and now have mushroom fungi growing on the kitchen ceiling underneath the bathroom . How do I stop this please and do I just pluck it to remove it ? Thanks in advance for your help.

Thank you this seems to be the case. The system does not appear to be working as intended. As the tissue placed in front of the vent stayed still. How do I make a good seal of the extractor fan ?

Hi All, I am currently having my bathroom refurbished. It is an ex council block of flats. The vent already in place appears to be a cover so not sure how this is meant to work i.e. extract steam. Also noticed that no other flat on the block appears to have an electric extractor fan. Can I...

Yes sadly, I would be unable to retrofit on my windows . I have now decided to change the windows. They must be 20 - 25 years old.

Thank you everyone for the comments

The UPVC windows in my house are showing signs of condensation and this is darkening the net curtains . Can this possibly be repaired or what can be done to correct this. Thank you

I recently had my wall plastered and painted. But the window doesn't look right, what sort of trim can I use.Thanks , I have attached the pictures.

No it has not failed, but want to anticipate if I need to get a sparky to move it before I do the report. At present a standard mains connected fan is installed . So wanted to know if this is allowed .

Thanks for the reply, the difference between the floor and the bottom of the fan is about 2.4m.

I recently purchased this property and would like to know if this extractor fan is in the so called zone 1 . If so what can I do to rectify this? As it is mains connected and is not low voltage.

Dot and Dab seems like a quick fix . Builder fitted this for me 6 months ago. But now can see hair line crack.if possible render wall and then plaster with multifinish.

I am having beams installed to support a chimney stack. I noticed that whilst this beam was being installed the rear wall which the beam was to be placed on was broken through . The builder left it like this, could this lead to possible water damage in the future and should I insist that it is...

I have recently had RSJ's installed to prop up chimney stacks as the chimney breasts underneath were removed. The BC were informed and a structural engineer engaged. I provided the calculation and plans to the builder. I noticed that the fabricator had predrilled holes in the beams supplied ...
