Funny that about the carpet shrinking. It always baffles me how sheep themselves don't shrink when it rains :?

ok I'm up for hire if anyone wants a David Copperfield illusion for cheap. One minute stood on a roof oggling some fit girl walking past, the next sprawled out on the garge floor with chipboard and felt all around me. Giggles and applause fill the air and apparantly my facial expression...

As long as you let the blade do the cutting and don't force it, believe me it works. Oh don't forget your goggles

Felt really isn't supposed to get wet at all. It's there as a protective layer from the snow and ice. Snow or ice sitting on a roof can seep up the tiles, in the same way as hold to bits of glass together and dunking them in water. Treat the cause, which could be a broken tile further...

it's more than like made from cast iron. You can buy these in upvc. Once the screws have been removed, i give them a short sharp hit with a hammer and block of wood. Wear your safety goggles though

To be safe I would use render. River sand and cement with waterproofer also added 3 and 1 mix. If there looks like movement in the wall (cracking) then add some lime 5:1:1 mix Basically anything pre 1970 go with sand/cement/lime mix especially if ther is no cavity

You will need a scabbler to get it off more than likely. Failing that hire a small kango and get a comb chissel end for it

I use a 9" angle grinder with stone blade. It takes time but has always worked for me

I was told by a guy who new about asbestos that tiny particles are like barbed fish hooks. They can get into your skin in your hair etc I would say a good dust mask and an all in one suit would be wise

Knew a brickie who closed up a gable end only for the customer to return from holiday to hear the cat crying faintly from inside. Apparantly it had been in there about a week, and when I asked the brickie if he had heard the cat, he replied "it shot in the void and i couldn't coax it back out...

Fire cement, see screwfix.co.uk

Airlocks can be a real pain in the butt to shift, close the valve that gets hot. and open the opposite valve untill you get warm water coming though. Turn the heating off first though as you will let more air in than out. It will clear in the end but they can sometimes be a real pain

Depends on how bad the plasterboard is. If it is solid (though missing its paper) then I suggest gripfilling the tiles on. The main thing is this, the tiles must be firmly stuck in place, make sure you leave a grout line (use spacers) then pack the grout in with a rubber float. As long as the...

airlocked, turn the heating off and close the valve that starts to get warm when opening the bleed valve. If you have a drain off valve on both pipes open the one thats cold, otherwise put a bowl under the cold valve and undo it till the air blows through.

kango, will be your quickest option

river sand mixed with cement, mix it 3 sand 1 cement. Pva the floor first and add a capfull of pva to the mix. The screed wants to be mixed quite dry. Put a couple of timbers down on the floor first then screed off with a straight edge working back towards the door, finish with a trowel as you go
