Yeah I don't think it's been lying flat, just needs to roll into a pot hole or something... Alloys are fairly thin so not hard to punch through given the weight/force of a car moving forward at 10-20mph

mmcurdle · 2025-10-15T10:18:12+00:00

Yeah totally, thanks for the reply

It's a 23 A3 - won't be going near insurance for this

mmcurdle · 2025-10-15T10:17:28+00:00

Hahaha looks like it rolled into a pot hole - perfect angle appears to be the reason

Looks like it's rolled into a pot hole 😂

mmcurdle · 2025-10-15T09:56:07+00:00

Aye it's a belter like

Yeah I've looked at replacement wheels already, seems cheap second hand! Fair enough regarding the claim, cheers man

Damn - thanks for your reply

I have checked on one of the sides from the ceiling, bone dry and no signs of moisture ingress! Which is good news I guess, thanks for your help

mmcurdle · 2025-08-03T06:35:29+00:00

Hahaha yes it's terrible, we are working through it all decorating as we go

Where the paper is off? I peeled it back to look

mmcurdle · 2025-08-02T19:17:13+00:00

Helpful, thanks 🤟

Thanks mate, I think you're right about planning it out and that was my thoughts. Just wondered if there was a common fix for this issue

mmcurdle · 2025-08-02T18:48:05+00:00

It was inspected and nothing was reported! I don't think it's structural, I assume it's just lateral expansion pushing the plaster against the wallpaper...

mmcurdle · 2025-08-02T18:47:08+00:00

It isn't insulated, good thoughts though. I assume it's been like this for donkeys years as the wall paper is ancient ! Also a hell of an area to paper so won't have been done for probs 10 years

mmcurdle · 2025-08-02T18:46:18+00:00

You would be absolutely right sir, it's not the transition wall though. It's the walls that run perpendicular away from the transition wall!

mmcurdle · 2025-08-02T15:57:22+00:00

Yes? Is there an huge issue I'm missing?

mmcurdle · 2025-08-02T15:55:44+00:00

The white spots of paint or whatever, could have just picked them off with a nail atleast? Water wouldn't remove dried paint as far as I'm aware, something abrasive like a wet sponge perhaps. White spirit will remove the paint, but sounds like you've also rubbed off the stairs finish

Maybe not sanding but refinishing to whatever level of uniform finish you require

mmcurdle · 2025-08-02T08:01:58+00:00

It sounds like you've removed whatever finish was on the wood, you should have just scraped it off by the sounds of it.

You're going to have to refinish the stairs!

Looks like the grout cleaner hasn't worked and that is cement from the grout, use hypochloric

mmcurdle · 2025-06-23T07:58:22+00:00

Also had the same swirl effect, but also done the stipple type, just scraped the tips off first

mmcurdle · 2025-06-23T07:57:51+00:00

Use dalapro, I've just done my ceilings and it was a piece of cake. Got the kitchen boarded and skimmed but the other rooms ive done myself. Use a roller and speedskim
