    How to deal with this window reveal and insulate?

    I've recently had new double glazed uPVC windows installed, and since the old sash and case windows were so rotten they stripped out the whole frame with the rest of the windows. The old lime plaster on this wall basically fell off on its own after decades of damp/neglect by the previous...

    I've recently removed an old and cracked soile pipe from the rear of my house, which I had planned to replace with a nice new PVC soil pipe. I pulled down the cast iron pipe leaving a stump at the bottom to join to. However, I hadn't realised when I got the new pipe that the diameters weere...

    Bathroom floor re-build - levelling and sub-floor material?

    I've just ripped out the 1st floor bathroom in my 1920's terraced house in the UK which invovled replacing a floor joist that had rotten at the end. It sits in the brick wall at either end so I've been able to level that and get it to the height of the neighbouring joist by packing slate...

    Where to start with re-doing my bathroom?

    Bit of background... 1920's mid-terraced house in the UK I have purchased as my new home, needs complete renovation and upgrading. Construction wise, it's got cavity walls, single brick between neighbouring houses. Bathroom had previous long-term leaks which caused rot in one of the joists, so I...
