I have posted this in the lounge as at this moment in time I am not looking for anyone to take on the work

I intend to be doing during the summer..


I will be having a new kitchen fitted with much of the work being carried out by myself..


I need two new windows and patio doors fitted. The kitchen ceiling renewed.. and new lighting installed..


An on suite and bathroom stud partioning rearranged involving plumbing drainage .. electrics ..

My on-suite is strangely further away from my bed that the main bathroom. Removing the on suite and rearranging

the layout could result in an extra small bedroom..


Most carpets removed and Wooden Flooring laid..


Now .. My problem is my house is fully furnished and I am looking for someone who can Temp. remove and offer short term storage of furniture while this work is carried out..


Can anyone reccommend anyone who who provides this service and is reliable..

a number of removal companies offer a short term storage solution (just google it - I put a link below for one) but I cannot vouch for reliability. I suppose their reputation is at stake and they would be responsible for any damage, just as they would if they were moving your things to a new property.

That would be good.. How many units are you looking for. I have many wall/floor units in reasonable condition.

I'm not sure when I will be ready as I need to arrange for my ceiling to be sorted..


Perhaps you come and have a look and see what you might want..

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
