    Is it possible to have double glazing repaired? I think the gas has escaped and the glass is now fogged up form the inside. Or do I need to have the glass removed and refitted? Any recommendations on who could do it for me?

    DG glazing will do it. Small job. They can pop out the glass and fix it.

    Had it done recently.

    Think that's spelled maciej sounds like magic or mach-jik

    Find Mark Bennis on Facebook and send him a message I found him on Facebook posting as a handyman work. He fixed my PIR lighting on my new house which was messed up.

    Anyone know a good electrician for installing new sockets and sorting out 20 years of random cabling?

    Just saw the inside of our new house without furniture, the amount of random cables coming out of and going into walls was mind boggling.

    Anyone recommend an Architect for a small extension-bedroom+bathroom in Limerick. Need advice regarding best way to go about it - attic conversion or extend, would also have plumbing issues to work out.

    My letting agent is an absolute joke so I'm trying to get some bits done myself. I'm looking for recommendations for someone to
    - sort out damp on the ceiling if the shower room and deal with mould on the shower door that has been there since we moved in.
    - clear the gutters and investigate a smell coming from, I think, near the gutters
    - repair a shed to make it waterproof
    -dispose of some things that the previous tenant has left behind like a TV, and some broken furniture.

    Joe O'Shaugnessy in Gileece McDonell O'Shaugnessy architects is very good. We got another architect in before and he told us we'd need €250,000 "to do it right".

    Try CarCom on Henry Street. I have no personal experience but heard positive things about them.

    Need my front PVC door lifted and oiled. Where's best for this? As any new build settlement causes chaos and need to get this done as the door is catching the frame badly now.

    I can give you the details of two people, one the plumber to install the shower unit, the tiler to tile. I've a tiler ongoing in my house who gave me the plumbers number. It's their mobiles so I'll PM the details if you want but if you want one person to do both then I don't know anybody.

    I got a guy called William Murphy to do mine. His company is Limerick Repairs on 087 8040524.

    My patio door was sticking badly and I had to get a window fixed as well. The seal was gone. He did the whole lot for me.
