Noisy Washing Machine
I have a noisy washing machine. It’s almost like a grinding noise when it washes or spins. Any ideas? Many thanks
Paying a tradesperson
Can work by a tradesperson be paid for overtime? Must it be paid all at once or do some tradespersons/companies offer different options such as paying off the work monthly?
Build in wardrobe
How much roughly would it cost to build a wardrobe in a bedroom about 4 foot across by 8ft height
replacing a shower in rented housing
When it comes to renting, if I as a tenant would like to make some non-essential changes to my apartment (e.g. replace the shower), is it up to me to pay for the cost entirely? If a landlord approves of a shower upgrade, is he/she liable to help out with the payment to any extent or is it entirely up to me to cover the cost?
Handyman scams to look out for
What handyman scams should I be wary of? I’m in my eighties and I’m aware that scammers often target older people.
Installing an indoor climbing wall
We want to install an indoor climbing wall to our child's bedroom. What kind of tradesperson would we need? Is it simply a handyman? Or do we need a specialist? We want to ensure the wall can hold enough weight to last until teens (if they still want it then). Any advice would be appreciated.
Filling hole in brickwork
After removing an old plastic pipe from the wall we now have a hole that's 6 or 7cm wide in the brickwork. What's best to fill this with?
Will my roof be able to bare the weight of solar panels?
How do I know that a roof can manage the weight of solar panels? Is there a way I can do this DIY or should I hire a professional?
Green homes grant eligibility
How can I find out if I am eligible for the Green Homes Grant? Does it depend on where you live? What work is covered by this grant scheme? How much could I receive?
Coving repair / installation
How much would it roughly cost to remove or repair old coving in 2 standard rooms (I believe this it is plaster) and install new coving in 2 other rooms?
