Laminate Flooring and skirting replaced.
The old laminate and skirting is removed to make way for the new.
Having prepared the area the job to get the new skirting starts, and when that is good the skirting is fitted, which nicely covers the gap left between the laminate boards and the wall.
Nice job, the customer is very pleased.
Laminate flooring & skirting
The customer wanted new laminate flooring put down and to replace the skirting, which is a good idea to hide the edging of the laminate floor as a gap should always be left at the edge to slow for expansion.
Finished job.
The old laminate flooring and skirting is removed.
Door frame widened and hung door.
The door frame is not wide enough to fit the oak veneer door by 40mm and you can only trim the door by 12mm. So we decided to widen the door frame. Once done the frame was fitted back with only a small amount of trimming to do to the door. With dressing and frame completed. Nice door.
Chimney breast covered over
The Chimney breast in the bedroom was in need of sorting. So fitted plaster board & angle bead and plastered over. Much better looking.

Window blocked up.
New toilet fitted
The old toilet had to go.
Removed and replaced with a new one from B&Q.
I filled in where the old tank fill was and plastered over.
Job done.
One of those butterfly bushes.
Oasis Dental Care wanted a large bush removed. Now you see it.
Now it’s gone!
Bathroom basin fitted
New back door replaced.
Removed old door and replaced with an external fire door, which will need painting. This saved the landlord a few hundred pounds.
Fitted the lock, job done.
Base cabinet fitted in kitchen.
The customer wanted to use the space available by having a base cabinet fitted with access to the existing corner cabinet already in place.
I suggested a 400 mm cabinet with door to match. I will cut the side panel to access through to the existing cabinet.
Once fitted and screwed in place a shelf was added and the surrounding trims fixed in place to cover the gaps.
The customer wants to paint the cabinet and trim, nice and tidying with minimal cost. Cabinet £45 from Howdens and £65 to fit.
Tiling job.
A bit of a tricky one. Certainly had to make sure the lines where straight as would look a mess, especially as this is a feature wall. Small tiles make it even harder.
New window replaced in garage.
Sourced and fitted UPVC window, got from Discount DIY in Middlesbrough, they have a load in the yard, different sizes so have to find one that fits. This one was almost a perfect fit. By the time I’ve finished, with a coat of paint, all looks great!
Waste pipe dug & assembled for toilet waste to connect to mains.
Entrance made through from Kitchen to garage
The customer wants an entrance made through wall into garage. The door, which is supplied measures 760mm wide. So need to cut width to include door frame. Also the floor in the garage is a different level to the floor in the kitchen so this has to be taken into account when cutting the height to include lintel as well.
Plastering ceiling
The customer does not like the textured ceilings in his house in Ingleby Barwick.
That’s not a problem. Having scraped of any extreme high points I applied a PVA coat. Right, let’s get a mix on and start plastering.
There, just one more smoothing over before the plaster dries.
That looks better.

Lintel replaced over garage door
The old wooden lintel over the garage door has rotten away leaving the brick work over to sag and bow. It’s in quite a dangerous state.
First thing to do is hire an acrow bar, from Andy Hire, and get that brick work back to it’s level position & supported.
Having cleared out the old rotten lintel, I took the measurements for new concrete & wooden lintels, the wooden to sit behind the concrete one under the second course of bricks and over the garage door frame. I used wood so that I can screw the door frame back under to straighten.
Both lintels had to cut down to size.

Time to fit the lintels into place, I use slate to pack under, at the ends, and above to the brick work so I can get cement into the gap. It meant lifting the bricks further, so cranked up the acrow.
