Terraced houses are housing units that are terraced together. They are normally very similar to their neighbours and it can look as if they are tiled in a row. You'll know that you're looking at terrace houses when you see a whole row of identical looking homes on one street.

Semi-detached homes are essentially homes that are connected to another home unit only on one side. There are some pretty interesting architectural solutions for semi-detached houses, including splitting a typical house building right down the half to yield 2 separate homes.

I would think that the homes would depending on where in the world you're looking for homes that come from this era. In general, I think there was a certain fashion for using brick, but there will always be exceptions. As  what the other poster has said, it does depend on a lot on the … Read more

If you are asking about a cup, then storing hot liquids in styrofoam cups would let them retain their heat longer. This is opposed to the ever-contradicting metal which many think is the material that lets liquids retain their heat the most. However, that is not the case. I have tested it myself and the … Read more

I assume you are talking about storing in plastic and glass products that can withstand a high level of heat. If yes, then plastic would allow liquids to retain their heat much longer. This is because plastic is an insulator, meaning that it does not absorb heat. However, glass does absorb some of the heat … Read more

I have always thought that storing alcohol in plastic containers might have some kind of a reaction which would make the content inedible. However, after this clarification, it would be really handy should we have any leftovers after an occasion. We used to dispose off any leftover alcohol because glass containers are just too dangerous … Read more

It is interesting to learn of new things every single day. I have only seen 2 stacks of cars being transported but on land, on the road, perhaps from a storage facility to a dealership. However, I have never thought of how they might be stacked when on ships. I guess it is the same … Read more

A home needs a heart and the people that lives in it give it that! It's what people do to personalise their bedrooms and the pictures they hang up in the living room and the little eccentricities that differentiate one property from another. That's the soul of a home.

A house is generally an asset. The mortgage associated with the house goes under the liabilities. You need to make sure that your home is also in good condition and that it is properly maintained. It's a good idea to get your house valued regularly if you're intending to sell it anytime soon.

I find it hard to believe that the house and the car would be in different states of cleanliness but then again a car is a more personal place in comparison to a home where the whole family shares a living space. Very possible that a messy person owns a car that's short of trashed … Read more

I think like the definition implies, the houses are mostly detached except for one point or location where they actually are linked. It is probably not the main walls of the home, probably an external garage that shares a point on the perimeter of the property. Best to look at examples on Google images to … Read more

I think that it's the people and the experiences as much as the things that go into a building that transforms the place. There has to be a feeling associated with a home - a sense of belonging and familiarity and that takes time and effort to create. It's the emotions that are vested into … Read more

Is there a meaning to Pucca and Kutcha? It would be interesting to find out if there was any history in the naming of the type of homes as based on the materials that are used to build it with. Seems like a Kutcha house is more of a natural material type building as compared … Read more

Thanks for all the replies here guys. I haven't needed to show my working for conversions of the figures for a LONG time! These days you can actually just type the numbers you need converted into your search bar and Google will calculate it for you AND get you the link to a site that … Read more

I would say it's the people. Without people, a home is just a house full of things. People give meaning to the items that go in the house and you can tell when there is life and love in a building.

I should think that you can use a storage bench for cleaning items and all that if you don't have a broom closet for the cleaners. I don't foresee any of your customers using it in the changing room since it's hardly going to be very secure in there along with everyone else's things. Best … Read more

I really think that the question answers itself.

Yes they have all the necessary rights to do so but they still need to inform you of any viewings prior to any visits as a form of courtesy. This provides them with the opportunity to inform the new tenant of your belongings in the unit and whether or not they will be left behind … Read more

Storage heaters are more economical if you require a heating system for the whole house. However, they take a much longer time to heat up so it is best to turn them on a few hours before you take a shower. You need to make your own prior calculations depending on your usage timings.
