The reliable way to hire a tradesperson

My pre vanished ock wood panel floor keeps bumping up all along where the pipes to radiator go, always this time of year how can I fix it?, end of August September it happens every year

Hi, i moved into a property and there is a thick oak floor throughout the ground floor except the living room. I’d like to have glue down LVT but I’m struggling to pull up the oak floor. Could the LVT be fitted on top of the oak flooring? Thank you

Hello - looking for some advise, please, on whether there are any good options for overboarding a ceiling when existing coving only has a small projection above existing ceiling. I have a 1 bed flat with a plaster and lath ceiling in the living room. The ceiling is in pretty good condition (a couple of minor cracks, no sagging). I was hoping to add spotlights - but an electrician said it can be hard to fix the holes afterwards and suggested overboarding with modern plasterboard. I'd be interested in doing this, if it makes the electrical works easier. But there's some quite intricate decorative coving around the room - it sits on the wall below the ceiling and also directly on the ceiling. The coving on the ceiling has a narrow edge which only projects ~4mm above ceiling, so I'm guessing that overboarding may also mean replacing the coving - making it quite a big and expensive job? Interested if anyone has handled similar and if there's a clever option for overboarding without replacing the coving? Thank you
