Sorry if my question is daft and long House is not new building Want to move wall so bathroom is smaller and bedroom is bigger therefore want to reuse doors where possible. I imagine will need new flooring in Bathroom and part floor in bedroom. it has laminate. Will also need new bathtub and sink Need it done in stages due to financial reasons and so kids including a disabled person have access to bathing so bathtub installation will need to be the last step. My question What steps will need to be followed to achieve the above. Ideally want 1 to 2 steps per month. How much am I looking at spending overall?

Who would I need to come out to look at a damp patch in my kitchen? I'm guessing rising damp on a wall that used to be external, now part of extension. Would it be a builder or a damp specialist? Thanks

Hi, We have a conservatory with tiled floors and polycarbonate roof. Can we convert that into an extension, that could also house a small wet room/toilet? If so, what are the steps we need to take (hire an architect? get planning permission)? Completely clueless about possibilities and what we need to do to get this happening. Thanks.

I am renovating a small 2 bed terrace house. There are numerous repairs required. These include roof and chimney repairs (stripping slates adding weather barrier and refitting), ground floor repair / renovation and damp tanking (floor joists rotted at front wall), kitchen door move (to existing window) / wall alteration (RSJ) and new fit units, bathroom new fit, new windows / doors (6 windows, front and rear door, 1 small velux), possible rewiring, yard wall demolition and rebuild, free standing garage demolition and removal. I am currently looking for quotes for works required. How much generally should I expect to pay? High and low estimate?? Cheers

We would like to brick up our kitchen doorway and replace (and enlarge) a window opening, fitting small bi-folding doors (around 70'inch opening) on the same wall. Any ideas how much this might cost (minus the glazing)? Thanks.
