painting exterior of whole semi detached house rough price?
My neighbour and I would like to share the cost of having the whole exterior of our semi detached 2 bedroom properties painted. I’m in south bucks. Think the walls are in good condition so should just require a couple of coats. Any idea of a rough price?
when you say windows are not plastic im assuming you mean the frames? These are PU (I think) White plastic frames. It’s only actually the second floor that needs painting as ground floor is all brick.

I have a problem with damp coming through the end wall of my house.?
It is solid 8 inch brick and is not caused by the roof or by condensation. How can I stop the water coming in through the bricks to the inside walls. All the paint is coming off and it looks wet inside especially after a wet spell.

The paint is peeling off the walls in our downstairs toilet. It juts out from the rest of the house.?
It has a flat roof and it is only 1 brick thick. What do I need to apply to walls to make sure it doesn’t happen again?

We live in detached property, our neighbours insist that our house wall is boundary?
They say they can drill into it,(they have without our permission and hung a gate off our house wall), paint it or whatever I’m sure they’re NOT correct.(they won’t allow us access to make repairs or clean the windows on their side) Would the drilling be classified as criminal damage and what action should I take.
We’ve obtained the land registry details and we’re within the boundary lines, tried to be reasonable and asked them to remove it and repair the damaged brick, yes, they are thick, we’ve lived here for 24 years and have no plans to sell, we’d rent out first Is it classed as ciminal damage though?
