    Is this a square taper bb? Had problems with this myself many years ago, could be either the bb taper is **** or the thread on the inside , maybe a bit of loctite to hold the bolt in place or a new bb am afraid.

    Hi, yeah there UPVC items , i do think they would give me a fair quote and I know the quality of their workmanship will be good. So we have agreed 1k. Not an area i really deal with and you see such wide ranging quotes from the big players that its hard to know.

    Thanks for everybodys help

    Hi the quote was from vision windows up in Sheffield, they should be doing me a good rate as was given there number by a contractor we use with a nod and a wink! but always worth checking these things as this is the only quote ive got , in the belief that they'll do me a good turn.

    I know you believe you heard what you thought I said, but is what you heard what I really meant?

    or something along those lines

    yes in pure monetary terms its not that bad i suppose , but I still cant help but think that these loans prey on those in the weakest position. thing was it was followed by an advert saying how you can right off tons of "unpayable" debt

    YES Choppy choppy, on the basis of what you have said and without seeing the property tis is most likely the culprit. Stick the photos up but i would advise you get a surveyor out to investigate. Problem is the trees may not only be dehydrating the soil but have caused damage to the drains , so a CCTV survey of the drains would be advisable. And some trial holes to investigate the foundations. Maybe ask the vendors to pay and you will absorb some of the cost if you choose to purchase!

    Not one we deal with am afraid , as others have said the correct cause of the problem is the most important. Most of the work i deal with is a result of trees on clayey soils and drainage problems , or poor construction. Not sure of the area, so couldn't advise on the local strata , neil forrow am sure could help.

    However it is not uncommon to come across propertys whic have been incorrectly diagnosed and repaired by others in the industry. Have all the cracks been repaired? If not do they look fresh, ie sharp edges, or old contain debris , warn edges etc. Where are they located on the building? Are there any monitoring records?

    Coffeeking , happy to help if i can who was the insurance company previously ?

    stonemonkey

    ALso,

    was the remedial work carried out by the insurance company? If so was it declared on the HIP . If it was done at the previous vendors expense you really only have a moral obligation to declare it on the HIP when selling yourself.

    I investigate subsidence claims for insurance companies, and i would purchase a house with subsidence as long as I was confident that the cause of the problem had been properly identified and corrected. I would however, also use this as a strong bargaining tool. If you have any questions my email is in my profile.

    I am afraid He's takin the piss, say to him you hope to pay him in 1 month and then pay him in 5. In a way you have let it get too far and you should of taken action much sooner but enough of that talk. Personally i would pay him for the work done and then get someone else in.

    On a more serious note , how bent are the others to allow that fool to get into the position of commander? Or is this a case of positive discrimination …
