I have a hole in my kitchen ceiling, the flat roof needs replacing, so when it rains I need 2 bowls to collect the drips :-| |

I worked out how many tiles were needed to do my bathroom and told the man from the housing association.I had also bought the tiles ready for him to put up. |

Carol - If it was me I would say no. If roofers don't have a ladder with them to assist in giving you a quote then I would avoid them. Contact your local authorities who should provide you with a list of genuine roofing contractors to solve your roof problem. |

I was chastised by a workman for sticking a (permeable) layer of man made wadding behind the air vent near the ceiling in my living room, to slow down the howling gale that came through. |

i wouldnt trust them. have been ripped off in the past, a well know window company, asked when i rang them "your husband will need to be with you for the survey" i put the phone down. no intention of telling them i didnt have a husband. i got a company who didnt ask if i was alone. after asking friends and family,for recommendations after having the windows done. i have had my bathroom and kitchen done without being ripped off. well pleased with what has been done. |

don't let anyone near your roof untill they can give you 2 or 3 references for other jobs they have done or ask around the neighbours for anyone they have used |

So right, Dizzi and Carol. My mum always used to do d-i-y when I was growing up. Dad was a hunter-gatherer (clerk in Building Society). And wife has always done it, whilst I have hunted and gathered. |
