GUIDE ... to home improvement

Painting the floor red W

hile painted floorboards look stunning, they’re not generally as practical as varnished or stained boards because, depending on the colour, paint is more likely to show up dirt and marks.

It can also get chipped, which is annoying unless you like the shabby-chic look. However, painting boards is easy to do yourself and the end result outweighs any negatives.

Period floorboards often have modern boards mixed in where repairs have been done over the years, and painting them makes it easier to disguise the new ones than with stain or varnish, although there may be a difference in the wood grain.

If the boards are in good condition, you should just be able to use a wood scraper and sandpaper or handheld electric sander to clean them off and make them smooth.

Remember to bang down any protruding nails with a nail punch and hammer, and remove staples or other remnants of the previous floor covering.

After sanding and scraping the boards, clean them thoroughly with a vacuum cleaner and if they’re still dusty, wipe them over with methylated spirits.

If you leave dust and debris on them, it will spoil the finish, so clean them thoroughly first and also between coats of paint, if necessary.

Top Tip When preparing wooden floorboards before painting them, you may find that patches are splintery and can’t be sanded smooth.

Cover them with wood filler, and sand when set, as you don’t want to injure bare feet once the floor’s in use.

Yellow stains can also be a problem - if they keep showing through the paint, use a stain block, such as Polycell Stain Stop, £11.48 for 1ltr, B&Q. With newer boards, it’s important to seal the knots with knotting solution to prevent the resin in them from bleeding through the paint.

Apply a couple of coats, one horizontally and one vertically. And don’t forget to use wood primer/undercoat on the floorboards (whatever their age) before the topcoat.

Dilute the primer/undercoat with about 10% of white spirit, so it penetrates the wood better.

Contents

– or any other colour! Stripped floorboards are a great look, but if you want to stand out from the crowd and still make the most of them, why not use paint instead? Julia Gray offers her top tips

SPECIALIST: Quick-drying floor paints are readily available Dust and debris will have gathered in the gaps between the boards too. To clean them out, run a butter knife down them.

Alternatively, use a powerful vacuum cleaner, which will do the

job quickly and easily for you - the Bosch PAS 11-21 vacuum cleaner, £114.95, www.diytools.co.uk, works well.

If the boards are in such a bad state that only sanding with an industrial floor sander will do, this is much more of a mission.

Hiring a sander (and an edger) isn’t particularly expensive, but it’s hot, hard and dusty work and you may feel that once you’ve gone to all that effort, it’s a shame to cover the newly sanded boards with paint.

Assuming you are painting them, a quick-drying floor paint, especially a water-based one, is ideal if you need to use the room again soon.

If you can close the door and wait a few days, a solvent-based paint may be better. While it’s certainly recommended to use a specialist floor paint, you could use ordinary wood paint and protect it with clear (non-yellowing) varnish (try Ronseal Perfect Finish Diamond Hard Floor Varnish in Clear Satin, £49.98 for 2.5ltr, B&Q).

However, bear in mind that the paint’s not designed to be walked on, so while it might be a cheaper option, it could be a false economy in the long run.

Going for a song: Your perfect open plan family home

by JANET TANSLEY

I

T’S A house that’s certainly got the ‘wow’ factor – not least because of its fantastic value for money.

Jones Homes’ latest House of the Week is on its Widnes development, Heathlands, and comes with a selection of incentives that make it even harder to resist.

Built on plot one to its Wellington house design, it has a single garage and is ready to move into.

This spacious family home comes complete with fitted carpets but stamp duty is paid for a limited period only, which would amount to almost £7,800.

The Wellington is a spacious four-bedroom detached home designed with the family in mind.

Living is focused around the kitchen and dining room, which merge seamlessly to create one huge living space. It’s that hub of the family home where all the family can meet, greet and eat, and it comes at a price of £259,950.

Prices rise to £389,950 for the five bedroomed Loughborough.

Although new to the area, Jones Homes is expanding within it.

July will see the opening of the developer’s fully furnished detached show home at Eccleston Grange, St Helens.

Being built on land just off Millfields in Eccleston, it will eventually be home to a choice of two, three, four and five bedroom homes, with visitors able to view the Eccleston Grange master plan and find out more about the construction planned.

The site itself is surrounded by several areas of outstanding natural beauty. Originally constructed to provide water for industrial use, Eccleston Mere and a number of ‘Dams’ have been transformed to provide tranquil havens for wildlife and recreational use including fishing, walking and sailing.

Eccleston Grange is set to mirror the on-going success of Newlands Grange in Newton-le-Willows, which has just been voted ‘Best Large Housing Development’ in the LABC North West Building Excellence Awards.

Prices start at £282,500 for The Daresbury four-bedroomed property to £385,000 for the five-bedroomed Landsdowne.

MODERN: The kitchen/dining area in the Jones Homes Heathlands development, above and right. Below: A typical street in a Jones development

For those ready to make the move there’s extra help in the shape of ‘easymove’, aimed at potential buyers who would like to reserve a new home now but are held back because they still have their own to sell. Under this scheme Jones Homes will take a number of practical steps to give homeowners

a better chance of selling their own home and so help the transaction move forward. ◆ Most show homes and sales centres open from 10am to 5pm during the week and from 11am to 5pm at weekends, or visit www.jones-homes. co.uk or ring 0151 257 8845 for more information. >@IC@> '>I$@! :D!&CIG(6EDH

Weeding out Hannah Stephenson talks to Alan Titchmarsh about how to get rid of the gardener’s tough perennial enemies

I

CAUGHT up with Alan Titchmarsh at the recent BBC Gardeners’ World Live show when he was giving advice on how to combat Japanese knotweed, the peril of many gardeners, a weed which is right up there on the list of seemingly indestructible thugs.

“It was brought into this country as an ornamental plant by the Victorians, who thought it was beautiful,” he lamented.

It has an underground network of tough, fast-growing rhizomes which makes it really difficult to control, and in the summer the bamboo-like stems grow to more than 2.1m (7ft), suppressing all other growth.

The RHS advises that if you’re going to try digging it out, remove as much root as possible, then repeatedly destroy re-growth. In this way the energy reserves in the remaining underground parts will be gradually exhausted but this process could take a very long time.

Another option is to place a layer of carpet over it – but you’ll have to leave it a long time before it dies and you can dig it up.

And when you dispose of the plant, do so carefully, allowing it to dry out before burning.

Best Of The Bunch Peony THEY’RE the blousiest blooms on the block, producing huge pom-pom flowers which are hard to beat, even though they are generally short-lived.

While many flower in May, some wait until June and they also make good cut flowers if you can bear to snip them off.

Herbaceous peonies look their best in borders among other perennials. Many reach around 1m (3ft) in height, their weighty flowers appearing over deep green leaves.

Good plant partners include bearded irises, or they can look stunning against a backdrop of climbing clematis.

Tree peonies, which are deciduous but keep their woody stems throughout winter, flower later than the herbaceous varieties and their flowers tend to be larger.

Newly planted peonies may not flower in the first year as they hate being moved, but it’ll be worth the wait for the magnificent blooms you’ll get in the years to come. They should be planted in a sunny spot in rich, fertile, well-drained soil.

Good varieties include the scented ‘Bowl of Beauty’, which has pink flowers with a creamy centre in June’, and ‘Duchesse de Nemours’, a white variety.

ALAN’S ADVICE: Gardening guru Titchmarsh has been making suggestions on how to get rid of the likes of Japanese Knotweed, above, and yellow couch grass, right Whatever you do, don’t put it on your compost heap or into your normal household waste because it colonises without seeding. It might be worth contacting your local council for advice on its disposal.

Titchmarsh, whose second ITV1 six-part series of Love Your Garden is currently being shown on Tuesday nights, says the best time to tackle this incessant weed is when it’s in flower.

“Chop it down to ground level and when it starts to

regenerate and particularly when it’s flowering, that’s the best time to spray Japanese knotweed,” he says.

He says it’s more susceptible to systemic weedkillers such as Roundup later in the season.

“Give it one big blast in autumn or late summer when it starts to flower,” he advises.

If it’s coming through from a neighbour’s garden, you’ll need to put a physical vertical barrier in the soil, digging a trench not less than 2m deep and inserting a tough, impenetrable membrane into it.

My own nemesis is ground elder,

introduced to Britain by the Romans as a pot herb and for its supposed medicinal purposes.

I well recall when I first moved to my present house, one border was covered in it and I ended up putting weed-suppressing membrane on the whole area, left it for about six months and then dug out every bit of root I could see.

Since then, it has threatened to appear from my neighbour’s garden, but I spray emerging leaves with systemic weedkiller on warm days in spring and that seems to keep it at bay.

Things to do this week ● Plant out bulbs of cannas and lilies potted up earlier in the season. ● Remove the growing points from early peas which have finished flowering to concentrate energies on pod production. ● Boost gladioli with a liquid feed every two weeks from now through to the first appearance of the flower. ● Plant ’De Caen’ anemone corms under cloches for flowering in the autumn and winter. ● Deadhead border plants that have finished flowering, such as lupins, to prevent them from setting seed and encourage them to produce a second flush of blooms later in the year. ● Pot up rooted basal cuttings of delphiniums taken last month. ● Propagate strawberries from the plantlets that form on the runners. Plunge pots of

compost into the ground and peg the plantlets down into the pots with bent wire. You can cut them from the main plant when they have rooted well. ● Continue cutting back rock plants such as alyssum, aubrieta and helianthemum immediately after flowering, before they have had time to set seed. ● Layer low-growing branches of chaenomeles, cotinus and magnolia now for good propagation results. ● Continue to sow quick-growing salad crops such as lettuces, radishes and spring onions. ● During dry weather raise the cutting blades on your lawnmower and mow without using the grass box so that the clippings help retain moisture. ● Thin established seedlings of herbs such as chervil and dill to 15-30cm (6-12in) apart, according to the eventual spread of the plants.

garden enemies Good enough to eat Protecting autumn fruit crops ALTHOUGH the warm start to the year initially raised hopes of a good harvest, frosts in April and cold rainy weather in May and June reduced pollination and led to losses of remaining fruitlets. This will mean poorer plum crops this summer and a dearth of apples and pears later, says the RHS. The charity suggests that to preserve whatever crop is left, it’s important to keep down weeds around trees, so that there is less competition for nutrients, especially in dry spells.

Careful control of pests and diseases will also help and there will be little need to thin out the remaining fruit.

Gardeners should summer-prune restricted forms of fruit

Persistent hoeing will weaken the plant but won’t kill it as the rhizomes are brittle and the plant will regrow from any fragment.

If the weed creeps among your other garden plants, you may end up having to dig those up as well and untangle the runners from their roots, then allow time for any remaining bits to regrow and treat them with glyphosate.

Another rampant pest is couch

grass, with its fast-growing rhizomes, which can produce hundreds of feet of roots underground, giving rise to a mass of shoots above ground.

It makes plants look untidy, with long blades of grass sticking out among your flowers, but can be dug up as the roots are shallow, rarely more than 20cm (8ins) deep.

If you loosen the soil as you go,

trees such as cordons and espaliers. With few fruits to support, it’s likely that trees will grow too many branches and leaves.

“Because trees have dropped quite a lot of their developing fruits, gardeners should be wary about thinning fruits, and in many cases not thin out at all,” says Guy Barter, RHS chief horticultural adviser.

“This current warm, moist weather, in the absence of a heavy fruit crop, will also encourage lush growth, so summer pruning will help direct nutrients to the fruit and promote productivity for 2013.

“Adding potassium (high potash) fertiliser to the weed-free area at the base of the tree can help harden growth and promote fruitfulness.”

you may be able to pull out long, intact lengths of rhizome.

Try not to leave bits of root in the soil because they will come up again. If your couch grass has spread from the lawn, create a clear edge between the lawn and flower beds to stop it spreading.

Aggressive perennial weeds are a pain – but planning your attack and patience will hopefully help to eradicate them.

‘Challenging’ economy keeping house prices down HOUSE prices have recorded their weakest annual growth in nearly three years amid the “challenging” economy, the Nationwide said Prices slipped 1.5% year-on-year in June to £165,738 on average, the biggest fall since August 2009, according to the building society’s latest house price index.

The study suggested the decline, which also showed a 0.6% month-on-month decrease, was partly due to the ending of a stamp duty concession for first-time buyers in March, which had the effect of bunching up sales.

It said there were “few signs of a near-term rebound”, as economic conditions remain tough.

Robert Gardner, Nationwide’s chief economist, said prices are likely to remain “fairly stable” over the next 12 months amid a lack of homes on the market,

continuing a trend seen over the past two years.

There are hopes that a “funding for lending” scheme announced by the Bank of England and the Treasury earlier this month could help kick-start lending.

Analysts have said this may put the brakes on recent rate increases although those currently unable to get a mortgage may see little improvement.

Mr Gardner said: “The slightly weaker trend we’ve observed since March is unsurprising, given the difficult economic

backdrop, with the UK economy dipping back into recession at the start of the year and few signs of a near-term rebound.”

He added: “Economic conditions are expected to remain challenging over the next 12 months. However, policy makers’ efforts to bolster the supply of

credit to the economy and to help lower the cost should provide support to demand.

“Moreover, the supply side of the market is still constrained, with construction failing to keep pace with the number of new households being formed.

“Overall, this suggests a continuation of the pattern experienced over the past two years, with prices remaining fairly stable over the next 12 months.”

Nationwide said the volatility caused by the ending of the stamp duty holiday for first-time buyers made it even harder to uncover the underlying trend. Mortgage lending to first-time buyers in March totalled £3 billion, around 40% above usual levels.

Nationwide estimated that PLAN: The Bank of England announced a ‘funding for lending’ scheme earlier this month

more than 200,000 first-time buyers benefited from the concession during the two years it was in place, saving a total of nearly £375 million or around £1,800 each.

British Bankers’ Association (BBA) figures released yesterday showed that mortgage repayments outstripped lending for the first time last month as Britain’s households became more cautious.

Net mortgage lending declined by £73 million – the first reversal in the 16 years that records have been compiled by the BBA. Households have been focusing on paying down their debts, but it has also become more difficult to take out a mortgage in recent months as lenders have been tightening their borrowing criteria and raising their rates in response to the weak economy and the ongoing eurozone crisis.

HE North West region of housebuilder Lovell has scooped a gold award for customer service in an independent national

survey.

The accolade, awarded by Inhouse Research, is given to housebuilders if at least 90% of their customers would recommend them.

In Lovell’s case this was an impressive 96.9% in the North West.

It follows on from Lovell’s receipt of the five-star award for customer satisfaction from the Home Builders Federation (HBF) earlier this year, cementing the company’s outstanding reputation.

Elaine Taylor, regional sales manager for Lovell in the North West, said: “As a region, we’re extremely proud of both this award and our five-star award from the HBF. Customer recommendation is one of the strongest indicators that we are offering the right level of service and to achieve this standard with 96.9% of our customers is excellent. We will use these awards as motivation to continue to strive for the highest levels of customer satisfaction again next year.”

Through an independent survey undertaken by In-house Research, all customers were asked whether they would recommend Lovell based on the whole experience of

HE first housing development to come to market as a result of a strategic partnership between The Peel Group and Barratt Homes will open for sale to the public this month.

Imagine Park, in Speke, will complement the regeneration of Peel-owned land off Speke Hall Avenue, near to where a new Dobbies Garden Centre opened last year.

Barratt will be responsible for the delivery of 268 new, two and threestorey homes, featuring a mix of house styles which are bespoke to this development. The homes are a result of close consultation with Liverpool City Council’s planners and urban designers, and were created in collaboration with DK-A, a team of Liverpool-based external architects.

Barratt is also working with Liverpool City Council to deliver on an integrated employment and training strategy. The council will help Barratt recruit local apprentices, and work will be tendered to local subcontractors.

Ian Hilliker, technical director at Barratt Homes, said: “Imagine Park is our first site to gain permission as a result of our partnership arrangement with Peel. The site will deliver high quality housing,
