Can anyone recommend a good firm for a loft extension in Harrow area of Middlesex? There are a few around but rather than simply asking for quotes from loads, I want to have a few round that are recommended by people who have used them.
Plus- any bad stories and things to look out for in quotes etc.
I am close to retirement and don't want any bodgers or rip-off merchants.

color sofa to purchase. The curtains and wallpaper are a country maroon check, the carpet is beige, and I have a large center rug with maroon, gray, and beige in it. I was thinking a dark color, but I'm just not that good with color schemes.

I have a SLIGHT problem but first a little background. My husband owns a very sucessful construction and remodeling company.Any work I want done around the house he does it without complaining and puts as much pride in the work he does himself here as he does in the work that people pay his company to do. From building an E85 plant to remodeling kitchens.Here is the problem. We started to remodel our home, every color, fabric and so forth I picked out and yes I asked him did he like it before I made the final choices.Recently after 2 1/2 months of remodeling our upstairs bathroom gutting it to the bones ripping up the floor and even instaling custom made cabinets it is complete. And.......I HATE IT! I hate everything about it, I hate the color, I hate the new heated floor, I hate the windows I hate the cabinets I even hate the shower curtain! How do I tell him? As I type this I am sitting in our computer room it is 1/3 painted something I told him I'd do before he got back on the 3rd

Will it look too stark?

I'm trying to remove vinyl floor tiles from a hardwood floor. I tried some stuff from home depot that's supposed to help - but it can't penetrate the plastic to get at the glue. Thanks!

I really want a clock that makes a Chime or Cuckoo noise, but it would have to be battery or digital, anyone know where I could get one from?

If not, would anyone happen to know what they are called? Thankyou.

Please don't just say "eBay"... - that is no help =)

I got a free estimate that seemed very high. I'm replacing an inclosure tub and walls. They seem to stress acrylic, is their design as opposed to fiberglass. What's are other opinions? Pro and cons

She owns a roughly 40-y/o mobile home on a 13-acre lot that has been falling apart for years. Many appliances and fixtures don't work, and it's cluttered from deceased family members' possessions. I have respected her wishes to let her process all the stuff alone, but now she's having health issues; besides, I'm weary of seeing her being dragged down by the condition of the place, whether or not she'll admit to it! I will have to address it sooner or later anyway, as her next of kin. Neither of us has the money to stick a new house on the lot, what with all the attendant expenses of doing so. Does anyone have an idea how I can step in and make her surroundings an actual home, without riding roughshod over her and with no financial backup? Thanks...
