The skirting boards were painted in gloss about twenty years ago. They need a refresh. I can’t see any moisture coming in as one has gone I the lounge and another in the hall. It’s 1950s house

Hi Some of the nails in the skirting board of my house have started to rusted. Can I do anything to treat them as I do not wish to remove the board to take them out.

Hello everyone To give some background, we had our bathroom gutted and refitted last year. It's quite a small bathroom, as the house was built in 1957. A new bath was fitted and also a shower screen on a hinge. The shower screen is a Aurora 1. https://www.novellini.co.uk/collections/bath-screen/aurora/aurora-1.html I am finding the water is pooling against the vanity unit in the corner and seeping out from the gap between the strip and the wall bracket. As you can see from the pictures the water causes some orange mould. I am worried long term that the vanity unit will rot as it's currently slightly swollen on the inside. I can see a gap between the bottom strip and the wall bracket. I guess that's because the shower screen needs to move and there will always be a gap with a hinge and perhaps a fixed shower screen that doesnt move would have been a better idea? Thank you in advance for any advice. Rob
