If they're as clear & helpful as this one, they'd be very welcome. Go for it!

Dean, you're a star. Many, many thanks for this. Any good tips for how to ping a chalk line if you're on your own? Fix one end under a box of tiles?

Has your chalk line got a ring at one end? If so get some concrete nails, then take one and tap it into the subfloor a few mm far enough so that it will hold the tension of the line when you pull it tight then walk to the other room pull it tight and ping it to your marks, then just remove your nail. Job done!

Just check theres no pipes to close to the surface

Just check theres no pipes to close to the surface

that would be my fear. think i'm going to avoid hammering anything into the floor. pipes should be a good 3cm below the surface, but sod's law says that the pipes weren't clipped properly & have floated towards the surface.
