    Party wall insulation - Agreement needed?

    I think this would dampen both noises surely? You suppress the impact vibrations travelling any other method than through interconnecting joists/beams. If floating floor and wall added, then you reduce these further, but losing space.

    Party wall insulation - Agreement needed?

    Does the method you employ not matter rather a lot on this? i.e, if you needed to replace the plasterboard (and subsequently added insulation) you wouldn't need any details from them surely?

    MBP: Buzzing from headphone jack when AV dongle plugged in

    If the plumber removed old radiator, then they should also remove and then cover old fixings. That is a completed task. Decorating to match requires paint to match and would be unreasonable. Installing a new raditor with correct fixings is also the bare minimum expected. The blown plaster would...

    Split Air con

    R290 is essentially propane, so may inccur some additional fire considerations, especially with pipe routing. However, it is no more dangerous than the natural gas feed you have running in your house. It can be as efficient if not more so than CFC refrigerants, but depends on the compressor...

    Spec me... a ladder

    You could estimate from the fence panels behind, so they look like 3x 6 ft panels, so that ladder is roughly 18 - 20 ft. Also, the rungs are probably not more than 1ft spacing, so call it 18ft ish. Which would roughly be 5.5m ladder
