  • Hot tub installation requirements?

    Hi guys, I’m looking at buying a hot tub for the back garden for summer but what is involved with this job? Will I need an outdoor socket installed? Do I need a platform to put it on or can it go straight onto the patio?

    Lowering ground level

    Hi, I've had a damp survey done on a house I'm in the process of buying and it has recommended that the ground is lowered at the back of the house to prevent water splashing from the patio tiles onto the walls (and hopefully exposing the air bricks so that the sub floor is ventilated). I think the job would involve slicing off some of the patio tiles, digging down to the appropriate depth, laying down a membrane and then filling in with gravel. I'm not sure which is the most appropriate trade to do this - would it be something a general handyman could do?
