Thanks for your words of advice. I listened to a couple of roofers who also advised against the metal sheets. I got a lovely local roofer to do the flat roof and it cost £1100. I don't know how to tell but him and his team seemed to work hard and we got a guarantee so I'm happy. Not sure if I'm...

Good idea JohnD, I hope I can mastermind a situation before the hob gets too hot. Thanks! KW

She is normally pretty good at leaving the worktops alone, although in reality she probably slides up and down them when I'm out! Hopefully once frazzled twice shy but she's not too bright so it might take a few goes! KW

I have an issue with my brand new oven. It has a sleek ceramic hob and looks lovely - it replaces our ratty old Gas cooker. I was cooking jacket potatoes in the oven recently, when I returned to the kitchen one of our cats was curled up on said ceramic hob!!! It was all warm and toasty from the...

He thought it was all wrong and wouldn't cost less even if he did fit it. I've also had a guy who...

Thank you all for your words of wisdom. Yes a hailstorm would be quite exciting. Paul_B what is EDPM? Is there a website that supplies it? I've now called a few people and they think that the cladding option could be OK but that I might struggle to find someone to fit it. I've spoken to some...

Hello all, I have a lovely leak in my felt flat roof. It's been there a while but what with all the rain recently it's becoming difficult to ignore. I've had a couple of quotes from roofers to rip up the felt and relay it. It's only a two bed flat so the roof isn't enormous (sorry haven't got...
