A Little Bit About Me

[Susanna]

Hi guys and girls. I have recently purchased a house that is fast turning in to a money pit. Its going to be my first home since my divorce. I can't afford to pay a lot of tradesmen, so I am trying to do a lot on my own. Any advice would be gratefully received

Hi, the kitchen floor has marley tiles as has the whole ground floor. I have been advised to tank it. Do I have to take the tiles off or can I put it on top?

Never heard of a kitchen floor being tanked, how old is the property.

You have opened another post on the same subject, I will answer on that one rather than having two running on the same subject.

Apparently there was/is damp. This is what I have been told.

Welcome aboard Susanna. I'm sure the house will come together eventually. Takes a bit of time to chip away and make it exactly how you like it. Don't do it all at once. Sort the repairs out, then do the decorating to your taste once it's all stable and solid.
