HOSPICE SEEK SUPPORTERS FOR CHARITY WALK Taking in some of Poole’s most attractive scenery, LewisManning Hospice is looking for participants to take part in the sponsored 14km Poole Bay Walk on 3rd August. The charity, which is based in Lilliput and gives free care and support to local people with cancer and other life-limiting illnesses, is looking supporters to help raise funds with a walk through some of the area’s most beautiful places, including Poole Quay and the harbour side, Branksome Chine and its pine covered areas, Whitecliff Park and Evening Hill, past the hospice itself. The walk will start and finish at the Fish Shambles in front of the Jolly Sailor pub on Poole Quay, beginning between 10.30am and 12.30pm, and is mainly on level ground, although for parts of the Chine there are a few gentle inclines. Parking is available near the start of the walk at the Quay Visitors multi-storey car park on Strand Street BH15 1SB. Designed and run by Rotary Club of Poole Bay, with the help of other local Rotary Clubs, willing participants should visit the Poole Rotary Club Website (www.poolebayrotary.org), follow the link to the event and complete the online registration form before the day - upon registration, simply chose to walk for Lewis-Manning Hospice! For further information call the Fundraising Team at the hospice on 01202 708470.

WINKWORTH WESTBOURNE HAS MORE TO OFFER Winkworth are celebrating yet another record sales month and the long standing team based in their recently refurbished Westbourne High Street branch are working harder than ever to strengthen their position as the areas market leading Estate Agency. Fergus Naylor, Manager at Winkworth Westbourne comments: “We are delighted with our latest sales figures and I strongly believe that one of the main reasons behind our recent success is attributed to the wealth of experience our sales staff have to offer our clients. Between the five members of our sales team we have 63 years experience of working in this area! Local knowledge and honest advice is hard to find in this industry these days and we still firmly believe in the old fashioned values whilst ensuring we constantly stay ahead of the game with regards to marketing our properties and complying with the latest regulations”. Partner, Ben Jesty commented: Fergus and the team have worked exceptionally hard over the past six or seven years through what has been an ex-

tremely tough market and now the property market has finally found it’s feet again, the hard work is paying off. Our Westbourne branch currently has 55% more properties to offer for sale than our closest competitor in the area we cover meaning we have an excellent selection of properties to offer our buyers. As a result of this, the number of applicants we are registering looking for properties in the Westbourne and surrounding areas are at a record high” Winkworth Westbourne are always happy to provide a free valuation whether you are considering selling or are just curious as to the value of your home.

Specialist buy-to-let business, Platinum Property Partners (PPP), says that the proposed income restrictions announced by the Bank of England to curb risky mortgage lending is a positive move. The new rules mean that borrowers will be denied loans on residential mortgages unless they can pass a ‘stress test’ proving they could still cover repayments if interest rates rose by 3 per cent. Steve Bolton, Founder and Chairman of PPP, says that not only will the planned measures help to curtail the house price boom, but that they will prevent first time buyers getting into unnecessary debt if they struggle to meet repayments. He commented: “PPP fully supports the Bank of England’s mortgage lending cap and have already seen evidence that it’s cooling the market. In the last three months, our team of property experts have seen a much higher volume of ‘sale agreed’ homes coming back onto the market and less sealed bid and open house viewings. “It also means that it won’t be as easy for home-buyers to take on too much debt. While many first time buyers will continue to benefit from parental support or schemes such as Help to Buy, shared equity and deposit incentives, a considerable number may now chose to stay in rental properties. “Fortunately, there is an increasing volume of high-quality, low-cost shared housing available for key workers and young professionals. This not only enables tenants to save a greater part of their income towards a deposit, but introduces them to the idea of renting out a room, which could contribute significantly to costly mortgage payments if and when they buy. It also allows them to live flexibly in the medium term to help them get to know an area and see if this is where they want to lay their roots. “The new mortgage rules may, at first glance, seem to hinder first time buyers in the short term. But in fact, they will go a long way to protecting them against borrowing above their means and will increase their education about money management in general.”

YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT SOMEONE WILL FALL IN LOVE WITH. So at Winkworth we make sure we spot the little things that make your home unique. Call our Westbourne team today to arrange a free market appraisal, and we’ll show you how we see things differently.

BOND’S GENTLEMEN’S BARBERSHOP NOW OPEN 95 OLD CHRISTCHURCH ROAD, BOURNEMOUTH, BH1 1EP Bond’s, a new concept in gentlemen’s barbering, is now open in Bournemouth. The spacious new barber shop, located on Old Christchurch Road, has been newly refurbished and tastefully decorated throughout in a traditional gentlemen’s library style. Offering a range of services including classic wet and dry cuts, beard and moustache trimming, shaving, nose, ear and brow waxing, Bond’s provides a relaxed and friendly atmosphere with highly trained, professional staff. Specialising in all aspects of men’s barbering, the Bond’s team is also experienced in the art of open razor shaving which gives a super fine, close cut; the ultimate luxury with indulgent hot towels. With an innovative online booking system, extended opening hours and easy access town-centre location, Bond’s provides a convenient one-

stop shop for a man’s every grooming need. Bond’s is the brainchild of Poole-based Mike Taylor, founder of the British Barbers’ Association (BBA) and co-owner of five barber shops across Dorset and Hampshire.

Mike recently celebrated when he was awarded the first ever Master Craftsmen status by the Hairdressing Council in May – an accolade he’s hoping will be achieved by many others. Mike said “We’re really thrilled to open our first barber shop in Bournemouth; the bustling, vi-

brant town centre is the perfect setting for our mix of classic and contemporary services and style. Our goal at Bond’s is to provide a first class traditional barber experience, with all the benefits of a modern service. We really pride ourselves on our range of specialist barbering services, unique setting, skilled staff and industry expertise – all tailored to meet our customer’s needs.

SHORTAGE OF BUNGALOWS FOR SALE IN THE SOUTH WEST Sixty-four per cent of estate agents across the South West are experiencing a shortage in the number of bungalows currently available for sale. This is followed by semi-detached properties,with 60% of estate agents believing there is a deficit. The research, which was conducted by CLIFFTONS, in conjunction with Move with Us also found there is a shortage of two and three bedroom properties in the local market. The research also showed that three bedroom semi-detached properties have sold the best in the last six months in the local area. Forty-four per cent of agents agreed semi-detached were the most sought-after properties. James Scollard,Proprietor of CLIFFTONS commented:“The age of the first time buyer has been increasing over the years and with the 5% deposit brought about by the Help to Buy scheme, many local home buyers in the South West are now opting to purchase three bedroom properties as their first home. They’re skipping the first rung of the property ladder, forgoing the starter home and moving straight into a property that they can grow into. Bungalows are as popular as ever popular with downsizers and have also increased in popularity with first time buyers and second steppers, making them more sought after in the current market.”

Opening Hours: Mon, Tue, Wed & Fri: 9.30am – 5.15pm, Thu: 9.30am -7.15pm, Sat: 9.30am – 4.15pm. Prices from £4.95. Gents Cut priced £13.95.

KEY TRENDS IN BATHROOM DESIGN Victoria Lombard from Ripples, gives us an expert guide to the key trends in bathroom design.

Tall storage cabinets with shelving and pull out drawers

PLAN STORAGE CAREFULLY Savvy storage is key to a clutter-free bathroom. Make a mental note of all the things you need to keep in the bathroom, from towels and robes to toiletries and children’s bath toys. Next, consider whether you want fitted or freestanding. Fitted storage will make the most of every inch, and is ideal for awkwardly shaped rooms, loft conversions and even en-suites. Freestanding elements can also make life easier, as you can move them

SELECTING THE SHOWER Showering has become much more of an invigorating experience in recent years with fixed overhead, drench or rain showers providing a variety of spray patterns for powerful or softer flow.

around when needed and update the style in years to come. Most of us want space-saving storage so look to dual-purpose products such as mirrored cabinets, under-bath shelving and vanity units with pullout drawers below.

If you have the space, a fully tiled walk-in wet room is one of the most popular options but if space is limited then look to an over-bath shower or separate shower enclosure with either bi-fold, corner entry or single-panel screen.

Wall-mounted designs will make a small space appear larger while recesses and niche shelving can be integrated into stud walls and wet rooms.

FINISHING TOUCHES Once you have all these elements in place, it’s time to consider the little touches that will complete your new dream bathroom. Think about the flooring and window dressing and consider whether you want something that blends in or makes a statement. Make sure both are suitable for bathroom use and always use bathroom paint if painting the walls. It’s specially formulated for high moisture rooms so will be able to cope easily with a steamy setting.

Burgbad Bel collection includes a space saving mineral cast washbasin with under cupboard and pull out drawers.

Blues and greens have traditionally been popular shades but the latest schemes are seeing bolder colours taking centre stage. Finally, treat yourself to the fluffiest towels and a pretty soap dispenser, toothbrush holder and tumbler set and you’re ready to relax.

A frameless design will create an ultra modern finish. For the shower itself, make sure it has thermostatic control to prevent scalding and consider whether you want a separate handshower. Digital showers are the latest trend, with remote control operation, pause functions and timer settings. Many manufacturers now offer water-saving solutions with aerated flow or eco settings while others have ‘rub clean’ nozzles to prevent the build-up of limescale.

Specialists in all aspects of LED Lighting

THE FUTURE OF LED LIGHTING THE FUTUREâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S BRIGHT There are a variety of reasons why we should all be using LED lighting as an alternative to the standard lighting used in our homes, offices, hotels, retail, clubs & decorative environments. Look around and you will quickly find that the inefficient, high maintenance light sources, including filament, Fluorescent, Halogen and Neon are still used in abundance. You can change this now and begin making serious energy cost savings by using LED-ZIP Lighting systems. With these new ecoâ&#x20AC;?friendly lights you will also be improving the light quality in retail, offices or at points of sale.

HOMES FROM HOME

GET THE LOOK Bespoke shelving unit at Victoria Smith’s home.

You’re truly pure of heart if you’ve never wanted to snoop around other people’s homes, lingered on the street to peep into a lighted room, or viewed a house, with no intention of buying - just to satisfy your curiosity about what it’s like inside.

community of passionate enthusiasts, who love sharing what they love and can give you an undiluted dose of style, as well as an intriguing glimpse into their lives and what makes them tick. Frankly, what’s not to like?”

Go on, admit it, you’re into property porn. Thankfully, the easiest, guilt-free way to deal with a decor addiction is to browse online home design blogs, which can open the doors to homes throughout the world, as well as being inspiring, entertaining, and informative.

Two of my favourites are designer Abigail Ahern’s, which highlights trends and tricks of the trade and features shots of her rich, dramatic decor, and Apartment Therapy, which is informative and illustrated with stunning photographs. Beginners - be warned, just like dipping into a box of chocolates and finding you’ve scoffed the lot, you can find that blogs are a major distraction and you can’t get enough of all those yummy rooms.

“Online, there are no limitations, no boundaries, you don’t need a passport, a visa or a plane ticket, just sit back and log on - a whole world of inspiring interiors awaits your arrival,” says Ellie Tennant, who’s travelled the world visiting 15 design bloggers and their homes for her book, Design Bloggers At Home. “The world of interiors and design blogging is a close-knit, friendly

While it’s fun to check out bloggers who have a similar taste to your own, it can be inspiring looking at the online scrapbooks of others who follow their own stylish path. Try these for starters.

INTERIORS

SCANDI ROCKS Inspiring images of light-filled, uncluttered rooms in beautifully styled homes fill the blog of Niki Brantmark, an English marketing manager and mother-of-three living in Malmo, Sweden. A fresh and simple take on Scandi style is offered in a delightfully presented blog, and she gives her followers an opportunity to admire converted barns, beachside villas, and to explore trendy getaways and fabulous architecture. “I’m in a corporate world most of the time, so my blog provides escapism into a dreamland full of things I’m passionate about,” she says.

HER HOME: Spacious and sociable openplan living areas have been cleverly zoned using lighting and furniture, ample storage

ensures it’s calm and uncluttered, and it’s living proof that you can have a childfriendly home without sacrificing on style. “Originally, our house had green ceilings and red skirting boards,” shudders Niki, as she recalls the home they moved into five years ago. “It was horrific but the windows were massive and we loved the location, so we just painted everything white to give it an airy Scandinavian look.” The living area features vintage teak furniture, monochrome accessories and a hide rug. “I love textures so I throw sheepskins over chairs, put rugs on the floor and scatter cushions, pillows and blankets everywhere. I hate the immaculate look - well, to be honest, I just can’t do it!”

CORNISH CHARM Design writer Rebecca Proctor marries her love of cutting-edge design with her penchant for a more traditional, rustic approach to home-making. It's presented in a refreshingly clear style that makes it easy to browse and is interspersed with stunning art, photos and homes she loves, as well as her own in Cornwall and her two small children. "Living in a remote, rural area can mean sometimes I feel a little isolated, but the upside of blogging is that it's made me feel much more connected to the rest of the country and the whole world," says Rebecca. "I'm part of an online design community, which keeps me in the loop, despite my location." HER HOME: Two 18th century cottages minutes from the coast which she and her partner, illustrator Andrew, have lovingly renovated. "When we moved in, they were divided into lots of small, cramped rooms but we've knocked down walls, made them into one, and now the house is flooded with light," she says. Flagstone flooring, exposed brickwork and inglenook fireplaces have all been retained, but wood burning stoves and a new kitchen have been incorporated to bring the home into the 21st century. "I love recycling and would rather make things for our home than buy them. I've used pages from old books and magazines for wallpaper in some rooms, and sourced replica Bakelite light switches to enhance a vintage atmosphere."

ASK THE EXPERT Matt Annen Director Pure Town Planning What can I do to my listed building without consent? The safest approach is not to do anything without first obtaining specific advice! Any works which are deemed to affect the character of a listed building as a building of special architectural or historic interest require Listed Building Consent. Carrying out any such works without consent is a criminal offence and individuals can be prosecuted. A true listed building, not a “Locally Listed Building”, will be one of three grades depending upon importance: Grade I for buildings of the highest significance, Grade II* and Grade II. Most listed building owners are likely to have a Grade II building as these make up 92% of all listed buildings. It’s now easy to find out online if a building is listed – find a link on the Intelligence page of our website puretownplanning.co.uk. As all listed buildings are unique, what is actually covered by a listing varies. The protection usually covers the whole building, inside and out, and includes any attached structures including later extensions or additions. It also can include any permanently attached fixtures such as a chandelier or a shop awning. Finally be wary of buildings within the curtilage of the listed building – anything pre-1948 is protected as if it itself was listed. Seemingly minor works to a listed building are quite likely to require consent - such as installing an internal wall or painting over brickwork. It is best to always seek advice. It may sometimes seem like listed buildings are best avoided but often they have fantastic potential and just because consent is required doesn’t mean it won’t be given! We have recently secured permission for works to the upper floors of the Grade II Listed Royal Arcade in Boscombe which have been vacant for years. The works included the addition of an external cast iron Victorian-style gantry and the conversion of the interior into 28 self-contained apartments. Pure Town Planning undertook extensive pre-application consultations on this project with Planning, Conservation, Building and Highways Officers with regard to the internal and external alterations; the number and type of dwellings proposed and access arrangements. During the application, through negotiations and justification, we were able to convince all involved that the scheme would sensitively restore and revitalise the dilapidated first and second floors of the Listed Royal Arcade and help return this building back to its former glory!

ASK THE EXPERT Bournecoast Property Agents Buy-to-let: What you have to tell the taxman and how to reduce your bill Becoming a buy-to-let landlord has been known to reap a decent return above interest rates or savings accounts, but it can also add to your tax bill. If you can find a property in a decent location with good tenants then then you should be able to build up a good income from rent. But the taxman will want to know about any returns you are making. To help, we run through the taxes associated with buy-to-let. Stamp duty All property transactions worth £125,001 or more are subject to this tax, which is due to the taxman at the time of purchase. The rate starts at 1 per cent for purchases between £125,001 and £250,000 then 3 per cent up to £500,000 a, 4 per cent up to £1million, 5 per cent up to 2million and 7 per cent over 2 million. This means if you buy a property worth £250,000, you will need to pay £2,500 in stamp duty. Income tax on buy-to-let You will have to complete a self-assessment tax return to pay income tax on any rent you receive. The amount you pay will be determined on your income tax banding. However, you can reduce the amount of tax you pay by offsetting it against any ‘allowable expenses’ that HMRC will let you claim for. You can claim for interest on buy-tolet mortgage payments, as well as any arrangement fees. Any maintenance costs on the property, as well as letting agent fees can also be claimed for. You can also claim for buildings and contents insurance, council tax and utility bills if your tenant is not paying them. Capital gains tax When you come to sell your buy-to-let property, there will be capital gains tax to pay on any profit. Capital gains tax is paid at 18 per cent or 28 per cent, depending on the type of taxpayer you are - low or high-paying. Everyone has an annual tax free allowance so you may have nothing to pay if the profit falls within that. You can reduce your capital gains tax bill by deducting the expense of buying, selling or improving the property, including outgoings such as stamp duty or estate agent and solicitor fees. You may also be able to offset losses on other property against your capital gains tax bill.

Inheritance tax When you die your buy-to-let portfolio will form part of your estate. This means whoever inherits the portfolio may have a tax charge to pay of 40 per cent if the total estate exceeds £325,000 or £650,000 for married couples. There are ways to reduce your inheritance tax liability by making gifts to relatives and putting bits of your estate in trust. It is worth noting that there are some HMRC tax reliefs relating to Furnished Holiday Letting. Always seek advice from an independent financial adviser or solicitor in relation to any financial matters.

Alternative Lending What happens when you have a mortgage too good to give up and you need to raise funds? Many stop there, not wanting to lose their rate. This could leave you frustrated that your plans are being thwarted. This need not be the end though. There are other ways of raising finance. Let’s take a look at the most common methods: Further Advance Your current lender may well allow you to add the extra amount you need to your existing deal at current rates. The problem with this is that if you are on a very low rate such as a lifetime tracker with a rate around or just above the Bank of England rate then your lender is as likely to want you off that rate every bit as much as you want to stay on and would try to encourage you to change your whole mortgage. At current rates, this would be the least expensive option. Secured Loan Next, you have secured loans. They are similar to mortgages but are classed as a second charge. They only get paid after your primary lender if the property is repossessed and there is sufficient capital to pay them. This is why they are more expensive than a standard mortgage but with rates starting at 5.7% they can be pretty competitive, especially as these days the early repayment charge is likely to be just 1 month’s payment. This type of loan can be status or non-status. Status means that it can be subject to all the rules of a mortgage such as affordability checks, income references and credit checks and non-status is less stringent but the risk the lender takes is reflected in the rates offered. Non-status loans are generally used on investment and commercial properties but they can be used for residential properties also. The Equity Loan I recently did a feature on the no interest equity loan and will recap it for those who did not read that article. The equity loan allows you to in effect “sell” a portion of your property for a set time and pay it back plus a premium. For example, you get an equity loan for 10% of the value of the property. After a set period agreed with the lender, you pay it back plus 20% of the increase in value of the property during that period. As I said, I have explained it previously and may well revisit it in more detail so if you want more of an explanation, give us a call. Bridging loans Finally, there is the bridging loan. “Aren’t they expensive?” is the usual question. It depends on what you can achieve using the loan. With rates now starting at 0.6% per month, they might well be in range if there is a good profit to be made. For example, we did a bridging loan for a client in Branksome Park. He wants to sell the property but it needs work doing to make it more marketable. In its current state, it’s worth around £1.2m. With around £200,000 spent on it, according to agents it could be worth in the region of £2m. The loan will cost him around £25,000 for 12 months and this is where his focus lay, believing it to be too much. Once I had explained that it was like buying a case with £800,000 in it for £25,000 he got the message. If the profit is worth it, forget about the cost. If you would like to know more, give us a call or contact us by email or on the website.

OUTDOOR LIVING

BRING THE INDOORS OUT Lounging and dining outdoors is one of the pleasures of summer but it must be done in style, because a poor setting will dampen spirits faster than a sudden downpour.

A patio should be furnished as carefully as any indoor space and, ideally, mirror your interiors taste so that there’s a harmonious ‘flow’ from house to garden. Fortunately, it’s now easy to create an area which impresses, as there’s a huge variety of affordable good-looking quality furniture in high street stores and DIY supermarkets that competes well with the high-end designer ranges. “Gardens are fast becoming an extension of the home with more and more people embracing a Europeam lifestyle - eating and entertaining outside, even though the weather sometimes doesn’t cooperate with our al fresco aspirations,” says Sarah Quilliam, head of product design for conservatory blinds and awnings specialists, Hillarys. “We’d all like a sophisticated, beautifully furnished area which seamlessly blends with our interior, and where we can enjoy an informal, laidback lifestyle with al fresco meals and spontaneous, impromptu gatherings on balmy evenings,” she adds. “Advances in design and technology mean there are plenty of ranges in weather-proof materials, such as synthetic rattan, so that pieces can be left out all year round and require minimal maintenance. “Awnings, lighting and sound systems, and stateof-the-art barbecues and stunning furniture - that wouldn’t look out of place indoors - are transforming our perception of garden spaces. These truly are now ‘outdoor rooms’ that speak volumes about our taste.”

Patio perfection is easy to achieve; follow the experts’ advice and choose from a selection of patio kit to suit your budget.

COLOUR STORY Colour’s a given in interiors and is featuring strongly in patio collections. Those zingy shades can instantly brighten a small space and could be the answer if you lack bright, blooming borders or yearn for an exotic lift on dull days. “People are putting personality into their patios by using colour and texture to express their own individual style,” says Karen Wichard, designer at Alexander Francis. “They want to create the atmosphere of a ‘vacation spot’ characterised by splashes of colour, particularly Mediterranean reds and oranges which add a spicy touch, reminiscent of sunscorched days.”

Just as desirable is the Resol range at John Lewis which packs a mighty colour punch. Red Bob Sofa, £600, and coloured Fiona Armchairs, £115 each

ASK THE LETTINGS EXPERT Sharon Canning Move on Rentals Our tenants have just left the house we were renting to them. They had lived in the property for four years in total. Prior to them moving in we had new carpets put in throughout and have invoices to prove this. At the check out it was noted that there were some heavy stains on the lounge carpet, an iron mark in the hallway and hair tong marks in one of the bedrooms. My question is that as the carpets match throughout, are we legally entitled to ask them to replace the carpets in its entirety or just the rooms where the damage is caused? It is unlikely the tenants would agree with this and if no compromise can be reached you can use the adjudication service via your deposit scheme. This is where a good inventory is vital with dated photographs and your invoice of the new carpets will stand you in good stead. The schemes say, ‘The landlord should not end up, either financially or materially, in a better position than he was at the commencement of the tenancy or as he would expect to be at the end of the tenancy.’ In other words the deposit in not like an insurance ‘new for old’. We have to look at what is fair wear and tear or beyond fair wear and tear and the most appropriate remedy. Appropriate remedies could be; 1. Replacement of damaged item where it is either severely or extensively damaged beyond economic repair or its condition makes it unusable. 2. Repair or clean. 3. Compensation for diminution in inherent value of the item or the shortening of its useful normal lifespan. With the damage of the iron mark and hair tongs to the carpets, this is negligence and if heavily marked should be replaced, if not heavily marked then compensation may be more in order. With regards to the stains, can this be professionally cleaned and with regards to the carpet being replaced throughout, highly unlikely? That said, replacement for ‘like for like’ costs will not be given. The adjudicator will take into consideration the life span expected of the carpets in question. For example if the carpet should have a life span of 10 years and your tenants have brought that forward by six years then the cost will be divided likewise. For example: Cost of carpet £500.00 Actual age now 4 years Expected lifespan of carpet 10 years Which means; £500 divided by 10(years) = £50.00 £50 x 4 (years) = £200.00 £50 x 6 (years) = £300.00 Therefore the Landlord pays £200 towards the cost and the tenant pays £300 as he has shortened the lifespan of the carpets life. Remember failure to protect a deposit in the relevant scheme will result in your Section 21 not being recognised in court and a fine of up to 3 times the original deposit to be paid back to the tenant.

DIY EXPERT

WALL TO WALL ADVICE

Get those jobs done with a little help from ‘Big Al; our resident DIY expert.

THIS WEEK: MAKING THE FRONT OF YOUR WALLS Wallpaper as a concept may have come back into fashion - but that doesn’t mean every design of it is. So if your home is a nightmare of swirly, flowery or textured wallpaper (unless that’s your taste, of course), what can you do about it? Painting over the wallpaper is the easiest option, and using a basecoat emulsion - Crown Paints does a good one - will make it easier still. Basecoats are designed to cover patterns and strong colours in fewer coats than it would take with standard emulsion, saving you time and effort. The problem with painting over wallpaper, especially if it’s been up for years, is that it will eventually start to come away from the wall, often at the seams. If it has already begun to do this, you can remove the affected sections of wallpaper with a craft knife and cover the missing bits with filler - although this isn’t a great long-term solution.

You can also simply paint textured wallpaper, but this only works if you like the texture. Textured wallpaper was often used in the past to cover up less-than-perfect walls, so if you do decide to get rid of it, be prepared to do some replastering (especially as plaster can come away with the wallpaper when you strip it off). If you can’t face the cost and mess of replastering, filler (or, in the worst cases, plaster repair and skim products) can work wonders, but this filling and then sanding can be very time-consuming and will only go so far. Some walls are beyond repair, unless you line or replaster them, and even then you often have to fill and sand, especially if the plasterer before you has been a bit sloppy. Newly plastered walls and ceilings can develop hairline cracks, especially over lath and plaster or if the plaster is ‘force’ dried with heat, in

which case lining paper or wallpaper will hold in the cracks. Alternatively, Polycell Flexible Gap Polyfilla (£2.89, amazon.co.uk) is the best filler I’ve found to keep hairlines cracks looking at their best. If you opt for lining paper, paste-the-wall ones are the easiest to use, as you simply apply wallpaper paste to the wall with a brush or roller and then hang the paper. You don’t have to wait for the paste to soak into the paper and you don’t have to grapple with soggy lengths of paper. While replastering gives a better finish, thick lining paper can be used to improve the appearance of lumpy walls - that said, the lumps and bumps will still be noticeable if light falls across them (lamps are one of the worst offenders).

be held in place with lining paper, as long as you don’t put any weight, such as tiles, shelves, or coat hooks, on it.

Blown plaster (plaster that’s spongy and moves slightly when pressed on) can also

If your walls have seen better days in terms of smoothness, the best way

PRODUCT OF THE WEEK TOPPS TILES WAREHOUSE STORES Think Topps Tiles don’t do ‘posh’ tiles? Well its brick-shaped crackle-glaze Chic Craquele tiles (44p each or £39.11 per metre squared) are very similar to an iconic range by a more glamorous rival, but are almost half the price. These tiles are a design classic, sure to make any bathroom or kitchen look amazing. For a pop of colour, Shibori Blue and Shibori Green (91p per tile or £80.89 per metre squared) have a rustic, handmade look, and for retro style with a modern twist, dramatic Diamante Teal tiles (£1.27 each or £42.33 per metre squared) would make a fantastic feature wall. 120

to enhance uneven walls is to use a chalky or flat-matt emulsion. Paint with any kind of sheen, such as silk emulsion, will emphasise the flaws, so avoid it at all costs.

FIND YOUR MATCHO STYLE MATCH

BOYS BUYS Retro’s still in vogue and a Retro Bowler Hat Cushion, £37, Great British Designs, is a snip.

Time was when decor was a girly pastime, and men who were enthusiastic about interior design were warily regarded as being a little too in touch with their feminine side. How things change; nowadays men are unashamedly style savvy and are blazing a trail with a rough luxe look which appeals to women as well. It features textures - beaten, rusted metal, loft-style unplastered brick work - which combine brilliantly with dark tones and leather and create a hard-edged industrial/ luxury gentleman’s club combo. “The lines are becoming more blurred over what style suits a ‘men’s space’ and one which is shared by both sexes,” says Maurizio Pellizzoni, a designer at architecture and interiors firm MPD London. 124 “Undoubtedly, a rough luxe industrial di-

mension incorporating leathers and metallics which is striking without being overbearing, a characteristic of rooms that appeals to men, is becoming increasingly popular generally.” The key to creating a successful male-orientated space is to create an environment which is stylish, refined and inviting, says Pellizzoni, as men want areas where they can instantly relax and unwind. “Fun and playful elements which distract from the everyday pressures and preoccupations of work make an interior interesting and add to the chill-down feel,” he says. “In a recent project we created a sophisticated entertainment room for after-hours entertaining, which had a gentlemen’s club flavour. It had a large cinema screen, a pool table and bespoke Hollwood-style bar. It’s all about a space which isn’t too serious in

tone but speaks volumes about the client’s style, taste and design credentials.” Another designer, Timothy Oulton - who has new ranges at Barker & Stonehouse which combine elegance and comfortable style accessorised by prints of historical sporting heroes, perfect for a unisex space - describes his style as “ rooted in vintage British designs, but with a twist of the unexpected”. “I like mixing bold combinations of authentic materials, like rich leather with shiny steel, or clear cut crystal with rusted metal,” he adds. “Your home should be a source of energy, an inspiration for life’s journeys and adventures. It should become part of your story.” What better time to encourage the man in your life to embrace his inner decor diva? Here’s the experts’ guide to rooms for the boys (and girls!) and the best kit around..

Why not give your property a facelift? Absolute stone and brick use a DOFF based cleaning system. It’s unlike any other steam system and can achieve temperatures 150°C. The DOFF system will remove dirt, paint, moss, algae, fungi, some graffiti, soot and smoke damage from almost any surface. The system uses steam so there is no need to use a chemical biocide during the removal process and the surfaces are dry within minutes. Unlike jet washing, DOFF uses steam rather than preasure to clean so it wont damage the surface being cleaned and also the steam kills any moss, fungi bio matter so the surface stays cleaner for much longer.

ASK THE RECRUITMENT EXPERT Matthew Edge-Wilkins Platinum Property Partners Ltd Highly commended at the 2013 In-house Recruitment Awards, Matthew is the Recruitment & HR Manager at Platinum Property Partners Ltd. He is also the Founder of myinhouse recruitment; a separate division of the Platinum Group who provide a unique, virtual in-house recruitment service to SMEs, new business ventures and property companies.

Job Adverts – How to make them work Thanks to the internet, job adverts can now reach thousands more potential applicants than ever before – but as with anything, volume rarely means quality. For those of you who have used myinhouse recruitment, or have spoken to me in the past will know that rather than advertising jobs, we prefer to target passive candidates using the latest online search techniques, social media and CV databases. However this doesn’t mean I am against advertising jobs all together. If done in the right way job adverts will not only attract some great applicants, but also help your company raise brand awareness. My tips on writing a great job advert (online or hard copy) are: • Grab attention – either by using a catchy slogan (this doesn’t have to be the job title itself) or use a graphic backdrop (this isn’t always possible online)

• Advertise it in the place where most of your targeted applicants will be looking (ideally in more than one relevant place). For technical roles, consider specialist websites so you know the right people will see your advert • Keep the text ‘punchy’ and succinct – don’t write lengthy paragraphs….less is more! • The three main ingredients to your advert should be – 1. Make your job/company sound attractive. 2. Say as much as you can about the role using the least amount of text (like writing a great tweet on Twitter!). 3. Be clear and concise on what the successful candidate needs to have in order to be considered • Use a realistic salary range on the advert to reduce timewasters • Request a covering letter/email in addition to a CV • Set a closing date for applications to be received by Once your advert has been published, I recommend you also do some searching for passive candidates to ensure you’re not relying entirely on applicants from the job advert. Before the closing date of your advert, put a plan in place for how you will shortlist the applicants in readiness for first stage interviews. This is best done against the essential and desirable criteria on the person specification for the role. If you don’t have a person specification, think about the most important aspects of the role and qualities/attributes that the successful candidate will need to have.

ALL OF OUR FITTER THAN FIT CLASSES ARE DESIGNED WITH THE SAME GOALS IN MIND TO IMPROVE FITNESS BY STRENGTHENING HEART & LUNGS TO TONE & STRENGTHEN MUSCLES TO BURN CALORIES & FAT

WE CAN HELP YOU GET THAT SUMMER BODY... BUT DON’T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT I wanted to get down a couple of sizes before my holiday and I had seen my friend loose almost 2 stone after going to Fitter Than Fit so I decided to give it a go. The first class was free so I had nothing to loose except some excess fat!

As someone who has always struggled to motivate myself to go to the gym I’ve always been on the look out for a better solution. I stumbled across Fitter Than Fit by accident and thought I’d give it a go. Fun, friendly and most importantly, no egos.

What I loved about the classes was everyone was so friendly, Charlie and Mike who take the classes were very supportive and made it fun by throwing in some Thai Boxing exercises that have not only toned my legs and bum but also taught me some helpful self defence techniques, I couldn’t be happier with the result which took about 7 weeks!

You really do only get out what you’re prepared to put in, but to have people there to motivate you towards your goal makes all the difference. In the first six months Fitter Than Fit helped me lose well over a stone in body fat. No two sessions have ever been the same. It’s hard work, with a firm but fair mentality, but you will not find a more engaging, enjoyable and rewarding way to exercise. It’s changed something I used to dread into something I can’t wait for.

I am more confident, have more energy and feel great.

MOTORING NEWS The latest news on all things motoring. By Nick Fletcher

MOTORWAY BREAKDOWN ADVICE Road safety charity the IAM is offering tips from Britain’s top advanced driver, Peter Rodger, on what to do if your car breaks down on a motorway: Plan ahead: keep a reflective jacket, warm waterproof clothes and a torch in your car. Put the number of your breakdown company and your membership number in your phone. Some breakdown services offer free mobile phone apps, often even if you are not a member. Use the phone’s GPS system to find your precise location. Get out of the vehicle by the left-hand door and make sure all your passengers do the same. If you have a high-viz jacket, put it on and make sure everyone is standing well away from moving traffic. If there is a safety barrier, wait behind it. Where possible, coast to an emergency telephone. If you use your mobile phone, you may be asked to give the number on the nearest marker post, located every 100 metres or on a square blue sign every 500 metres. Don’t attempt a repair on the hard shoulder of a motorway, call your breakdown company. Be safe and be patient while you wait for help to arrive.

IAM chief examiner Peter Rodger said: “Breaking down is stressful, but be prepared by knowing what to do and when. Thinking about these things in advance will place you in a better position in case it happens and relieve some of the strain.”

The 208 GTi 30th builds

The 208 GTi 30th features a new Euro6 1.6-litre THP petrol engine developing a symbolic 208hp. Mated to a six-speed manual gearbox, it has exceptional traction using a Torsen differential, specific suspension and steering settings.

The suspension is lowered by 10mm, the track widened by 22mm at the front and 16mm at the rear, and larger wheels are specified giving it a pronounced sports car posture on the road.

The exterior can also be distinguished with an optional paint finish where the rear is separated distinctively by a sharp dividing line from which the colours are cleanly divided. It will be presented to the public at the forthcoming 2014 Paris Motor Show, with sales starting in November, and prices will be revealed nearer that time. “The 208 GTi 30th builds on the virtues of a strong identity, great attention to detail and in the style of the 208 GTi, and takes on a more radical and brutish fashion, making the link with the incisive character of its dynamic

ROAD TEST - TOYOTA VERSO Changing lifestyles and social patterns have boosted the popularity of compact multi-purpose vehicles in recent years and most of the major manufacturers have a contender in this busy sector, and while the Toyota Verso may perhaps not be the first one to spring to mind, it has plenty of attractions, writes NICK FLETCHER. The first plus point is Toyota’s strong reputation for excellent build quality, which means robust re-sale values and overall dependability, hence its five year/100,000 mile warranty. Equipment levels are also quite generous which adds to the value for money. Verso models start at £17,700 and have power windows, air-conditioning and hill-start assist among their features, but many buyers will opt for the midrange Icon trim grade which adds 16inch alloy wheels, climate control, Bluetooth, rear electric windows, a rear-view camera, digital radio, and cruise control among extra kit. The Verso is available with 1.6 or 1.8-litre petrol engines, and a 1.6-litre diesel unit, and my test model – an upper range Trend – had the 1.8 petrol engine mated to Toyota’s Multidrive continuously variable transmission. The Trend version has touch-screen multi-media and satnav, front parking sensors, 17-inch alloys, and various other kit and is

priced at £22,800. The test model also added a panoramic sunroof (£550) and metallic paint (£495). Top speed of this model is 115 mph and the 0-60 mph time is 11.1 seconds., Fuel economy is 41.5 mpg combined. Visually the Verso is sleekly styled and with its big dual front grille wide headlights has a rather potent road stance. Inside the cabin is attractively designed and laid out, with the speedometer and rev counter offset to the left rather than directly in front of the steering wheel. The auto gear shift is simple to operate from a smaller than usual centre console, which creates more space. The Verso is a seven seater and offers

good versatility in terms of load and occupant options. The middle row of seats can be slid, folded and reclined individually, and if you are mainly using the car for no more than five occupants, then there is plenty of space for all, and decent luggage space too. However, like most compact MPVs, load space is restricted if the third row of seats is used – just 155 litres of space remains. The Verso is smooth and relaxing to drive in town, and handles well on twisty country roads, with minimal body swap and a compliant suspension set up which copes with rougher surfaces with ease. With a long list of plus-points, Verso has to be on the short list of anyone seeking smart, practical easy-to-drive family transport.

was extremely handy, and on walking through the entrance was amazed at the scale of the premises. The salon has recently been refurbished and was very bright and welcoming. I was greeted by 2 lovely ladies at the front who showed me in to the seating area adorned with information booklets and magazines. I was immediately offered a drink and was shown a lengthy and impressive refreshments menu. I sat on the large leather corner suite sipping on cranberry juice and eating the complimentary chocolate crispy cakes! I was already very happy. Very shortly I was met by Sophy, a highly experienced L’Oreal colour specialist who showed me to my seat. Sophy spent a lot of time with me discussing my usual colour and what visions I had for this new look. I felt completely confident in allowing her to come up with an idea for me as she seemed to know exactly what would suit me and look good. She explained that she thought a new combination of vanilla blonde with streaks of cool, icy blonde tones would work well so she

ASK THE EXPERT Harvey Reid Laceys Solicitors Neighbour disputes Neighbour disputes are notorious for running up huge legal costs. Here are some points to help you avoid these sort of disputes:

• When you sell your property you will answer a form called the Property Information Form. If you fill those in incorrectly or give a misleading answer the buyer may make a claim for compensation. • Boundaries as shown on the Land Registry are general boundaries only. They are not necessarily definitive. If a query or potential dispute arises, you should immediately offer to share the costs of appointing a joint boundary expert to determine the boundaries. You should also offer mediation. A court process remains available in the last resort but can be hugely expensive. • If you do any underground work within 6 metres of the neighbouring building, you may have to serve a notice on your neighbour giving them warning of what you are intending to do. This is called a Party Wall Act notice. You will need the assistance of a Chartered Surveyor. • If someone appears to be occupying land belonging to you, you should take it up immediately with them. You may have to take action to remove them. If those people remain on the land long enough and comply with various requirements, they can acquire title to the land.

• You should have trees on your land inspected annually by a tree expert to remove dangerous branches and advise whether tree roots might be penetrating the neighbour’s drains. That will prevent actions for compensation for damage done.

• If anyone goes across your land for any purpose, you need to prevent a right of way arising. You should immediately post notices saying that this is a permissive right to enable you to block it up whenever you like, or you should block it up straight away anyway to prevent people using it.

You should always discuss these problems with your neighbour first before starting any precipitate action. It is always best to take expert and legal advice.

REVIEW

REVIEWED SMILE AND SPARKLE OK, so I think we’re all a little sceptical of wild claims when it comes to health and beauty benefits, and certainly teeth whitening is no stranger to the ’10 shades whiter in only one treatment’ kind of statement, so I was more than intrigued when Sebastian at Smile ‘n’ Sparkle ask me to get my gnashers out and put them to the test. Smile ‘n’ Sparkle are Bournemouth’s number one teeth whitening company and the only dedicated teeth whitening clinic in the whole of Dorset, making them a must visit if you’re serious about achieving a set sparkling whites to show off. Boasting instant results in just one session I was a little sceptical but keen to put them to the test and with my love of a Starbucks Americano my teeth could certainly do with a bit more sparkle. I was slightly nervous about how it all works, but on entering the clinic I was greeted by the professional team and introduced to my (fully qualified and insured) technician for the treatment who instantly put me at ease. There was some paperwork to do and then Louise talked me through the process, which involves coating your teeth in and un-harmful non-peroxide whitening

gel and then exposing them to an ultraviolet lamp to activate the whitening system. Smile ‘n’ Sparkle use only the best natural products and this was certainly evident from my experience. The process was completely pain free and there was none of the often quoted sensitivity to my teeth afterwards.

The team recommend a shorter top-up treatment every 3–6 months to keep your smile nice and white and I’ll definitely be back for that. I actually think this is something that will now become a routine for me, and my treatments costing only £95 and £40 for a top-up I’d be mad not to. In fact you’re mad if you don’t call them and book an appointment right now.

I sat through three 20 minute sessions under the lamp with a fresh application of whitening gel before each. This sounds like a long time to be sat with your mouth open, but Louise my technician offered the perfect level of bubbly chattiness to keep me entertained. It is a bit tricky to reply with any clarity, but they’re used to it there so we chatted constantly and the hour flew by. So with an hour of my life spent under the lamp was it worth it? Did I have a fresh set of sparklers to show off? In a word, yes! I was absolutely astonished to have teeth that were now a full 16 shades whiter than when I walk through the door only an hour before! Honestly, I could not believe how good my smile now looked, I left with a huge grin to go and blind the world with!

REVIEWED BONDS BARBERSHOP Bond’s is a refreshing look at a gentlemen’s barbers. Bond’s offer the highest standard of barbering, all of their staff are trained to the highest level and take their time to perfect their work. At Bond’s you will find a relaxed atmosphere and a clinical clean working environment.

Bond’s aim is to deliver the work of a top barbers with the customer service of a top class hairdressers. We sat down with the guys at Bonds and asked them a few questions to find out what all the fuss was about. What’s the best thing about being a barber? Chatting with the clients, being a part of the fashion industry, wearing what you want to work. Who inspired you to get into the hair industry? My older brothers friend was a barber and I thought he was a cool guy with a cool job. What’s the craziest thing you’ve ever seen in your years in barber shops? I have had doormen asking me to shave a bald patch like a scar on the back of their heads. Who’s your style icon? A mixture of cool Hollywood classics including Steve Mcqueen, Clint Eastwood, Jonny Depp. Tell us about your personal style? Laid back, at the moment I have a cast away style going on bleach blond hair overgrown beard and beads If you could cut any celebrities hair, who would it be and why? Has to be Beckham, he is the style guru for men, plus he is a nice guy, I would also love to have Karl Pilkington in my chair for a moan with me. Any trends you’re noticing for men’s grooming these days? It’s all about the retro look, at the moment every one is having parting and quiffs, this is cool and classic, also the kids are getting what their parents want for a change. How would your friends describe you? Honest, to the point, laid back, quirky.
