Comments (15)I don't think it will work. Do you have to dry washing indoors? How about a nice condensing dryer? Even a rack over the bath is preferable to what you suggest. How about a free standing rack in front of the radiator when you go to bed at night? It is surprising how much stuff will dry over night like that. Ikea do a good rack that folds out and holds an awful lot. I used one whilst renovating a house and did all my drying like that, even stood it outside on a good day. Good luck, I do hope you get your problem sorted, who likes washing anyway?...See MoreCeiling Speakers
Comments (6)I have done that in my existing house and whilst it reduces the sound movement to the upstairs, it does eliminate it. Has anyone used the in wall speakers that one plasters over?...See MoreWho is best to supply spec’d products? Client or Contractor?
Comments (7)When I had my kitchen changed, I ordered the units myself, as well as the worktop, sink, taps and appliances. Things like plasterboard, cement, etc the builder bought it. My builder was my brother, and he called in the trades such as electrician, tiler, plasterer etc. He is a brilliant builder and is a “one man band” with a labourer who works for him. He has all the contacts for the other tradespeople (sub contractors) and he calls them in when required, so although they are self employed, they work as a team as required. I paid each tradesperson direct. It really works well but occasionally someone doesn’t pull his weight and they are replaced. I don’t think you will find contractors who employ their own tradespeople unless it’s a very big company? Even big house building companies tend to use subcontractors for certain jobs. This is just my experience but then I know I am very lucky to have a builder brother. It will be interesting to see what other Houzzers suggest. I’m sure you’ll get lots of advice on here!...See MoreSound proof plasterboard and weight issue
Comments (6)I’m not a builder, so may be way off, but if original plasterboard is attached to wooden stud work, I think you’d need to attach the new boards to the same stud work? You can use a little hand held scanner thing to locate the stud work (think they might even be called stud finders?!) You’d then need longer screws.......See MoreJonathan
