Building an extension
Recent indicators show that most people are staying longer in their houses. This translates to more people adding extensions to their homes as it ensures the available space is better utilized and the economic impact is less than that incurred in moving to a new home. Moreover, it means that you can stay in the same neighborhood surrounded by familiar faces and your kids need not keep adjusting to the changes that result from moving houses such as different schools.

Basics of Rendering A Wall with Sand & Cement
If you’re looking to protect your walls against the elements, and let’s face it, here in the UK we do get some pretty harsh weather conditions, applying render is a pretty good way of doing so.

Finding a reputable Roofer in Nottingham & Derby
Here in the UK, it’s probably safe to say that we’re not renowned for having the calmest and most reliable of weather. We’re an exposed island nation and our weather often reflects as much. During the summer the weather is often hit and miss, but it’s during the Autumn and the Winter seasons when we often find ourselves taking a real battering. For the last few years we’ve experienced extreme weather in some way or another that ultimately ended up costing us money. We’ve had extreme freezes which lasted for weeks and dumped several feet of snow and more ...
