Concrete sectional garage to be removed from back yard then either a fence or wall to be erected at the site boundary in the 'gap' where the garage has been removed - around 3m width.
Very hard working decent people who did the job for a good price. I would definitely put friends or colleagues in touch with them if they want any work doing.Robin
Owing to damp, plaster has perished and come away from external bedroom wall. So an opportunity to replace damaged plaster with thermal plasterboard. Room is 2.70m high. External wall 3.75m across, 2nd ext wall 1.45m, chimney breast 1.35m across x 37 cm deep. Ceiling is approx 3.80m x 3.76m.
Dave has done a very neat job on the original task of plasterboarding/plastering. He was also willing to do extra small jobs to complete the refurbishment, which I really appreciated. Very professional and reliable and very highly recommended.Jackie
Unsold Job, Updated Details : Happy to take guidance on appropriate pricing and best approach to getting the job done. Photos attached to aid assessment of job. Original : Damp appearing in one of the side walls in and around the chimney stacks. Same Wall in loft appears wet. Chimneys were capped many years ago and wall has never been repointed. Wall is also solid double bricked but lacks a cavity and generally always feels very cold. House is a detached 1911 build although wall in question does have some access restrictions externally due to close proximity of a neighbouring single story flat roof garage. Gap is about 2ft.

After noticing water penetration above the window in the back bedroom ,I then checked the outside wall and noticed above the window some mortar missing around 3 or 4 bricks.Replacing the mortar would probably fix the leak.But on further inspection higher up the wall I think there is the neccessity for more pointing and replacing of spalled bricks.The wall is the "gable end"of the outrigger from a row of terraced houses which is shared with the adjoining property.The top of the wall has a shared chimney stack,which is not used,and really needs removing.

Timberwise have told us our joist is infected with woodworm and needs replacing.
Problem is it is sat an inch adjacent to the BRICK inside wall, which happens to support the staircase.
Job required:
a) Assess whether brick wall can be demolished and replaced with an open staircase / open living option, without compromising structure and support of 1st floor.
b) Removal of bricks underneath if a) is possible. Bricks not to be disposed.
c) Ensure proper support of staircase and first floor.
d) Removal of infected joist and replaced with pre-treated joist
Hope to hear from you soon,

• Repairing brickwork and re-plastering an area about 1 metre by 1.5
metres.
• The floor needs to be replaced in a room 10'4" x 8'7". It is possible that
one of the joists has been affected so I’d like your opinion on that.
• I would also be interested in getting an idea on the price of some
rendering however that would most likely be done at a later date.
• Re-plastering 1 ceiling.
