project
A project (or program) is any undertaking, carried out individually or collaboratively and possibly involving research or design, that is carefully planned (usually by a project team, but sometimes by a project manager or by a project planner) to achieve a particular aim.An alternative view sees a project managerially as a sequence of events: a "set of interrelated tasks to be executed over a fixed period and within certain cost and other limitations".A project may be a temporary (rather than permanent) social system (work system), possibly staffed by teams (within or across organizations) to accomplish particular tasks under time constraints.A project may form a part of wider programme management
or function as an ad hoc system.Note that open-source software "projects" or artists' musical "projects" (for example) may lack defined team-membership, precise planning and/or time-limited durations.
Folks, hope you can help.

Customer came on here a couple of months ago looking for a solution to rectify the loose tiles and water coming back up through grout joints.
I went to have a look and it was decided on close inspection that the tiles needed removing but unsure what next step was until what was underneath was...
This will no doubt turn into a very long thread, as I'm determined I'm going to do the whole lot myself. I'll start with a picture from about 12 months ago. I was attempting to clean my very leaky garage roof and the inevitable happened, I fell through it! Rather than repair it, which would have...

It's a...
Hi Guys and Girls,
I'm looking into redoing my bathroom at home. I have been and got some quotes but unfortunately they are coming in well above my budget. The quotes all seem to be quoting RRP on all the bits when with very little effort I can save 30% to 50% and on some parts 80% just by...

I am a DIY self-renovator, running out of cash to pay the builder and therefore needing to take on work myself. I've tiled whole bathrooms and floors before, successsfully, but using basic DIY tools. Now, with a three-bathroom plus other tiled flooring project to complete, I thought my meager...
