Wickes offers

This year Wickes have 25% OFF a great range of products just in time for those few days off work at Easter. PLUS you can have their orders delivered over Easter Bank Holiday – on Good Friday & Easter Monday April 9th – at no extra charge.

This includes paint! That means if you want to freshen up your house this Spring then you can! Get painting with this great offer from Wickes.

This Weekend – 25% OFF Paint

Offer: 25% Off ALL Paint

Starts: Friday 30th March 2012

Ends: Monday 2nd April 2012

Use paint to brighten up dull rooms, or freshen up those where the kids have left marks all around the walls. Use warm colours to make the room feel more cosy. Use blue or green tones for a cooler feel.
Use a brighter colour for a feature wall if you’re feeling bold!
If you’re looking at selling your house then a coat of paint can clean up the look of your house and it’s a lot easier than you think!
Wickes paint is great value too. Painting a room is probably the cheapest makeover you can do. Pick a colour that will go with your existing furniture. Cover the carpet well and remove as much furniture as you can to make it easy to move a ladder around the room.

Noisy neighbours

How do you tell if your neighbours will be noisy?

You can ask the vendor – but there are sometimes reasons why they might not tell you what you want to know. If they’re hard of hearing they might not notice that teenagers next door have the music on all the time. You can ask via a solicitor if there’s a problem with noise from the neighbours and as long as they get a written response to that you should know. If they lie then you might have a case against them.

The surest way is by your own observation.

Walk past a few times. Not in a stalkerish sort of way but discovering the neighbourhood sort of way. A hot sunny weekend is when you’re likely to see if the neighours are out on the fronts being noisy.

View the house when the neighbours are home. Canny sellers might only let you view when they neighbours are out. But a weekday evening should get you an idea of what noise you can hear from next door.

What noise should you expect to hear?

In an ideal world none, but the world isn’t perfect. If you can hear the neighbours chatting (Or shouting and screaming) or hear their microwave ping then the house needs some soundproofing to save the sanity of the residents.

Of course if you’re a huge noisy family then you won’t care what the neighbours are like!

Is this news?
In Sept 2010 it was also up for sale.

So really it’s a story of them having had their house on the market for 2 years.

Can’t see it on rightmove.

Maybe they need Phil Spencer to be their secret agent?
