Many odd jobs from external brick repair to wallpapering

3 stipulations: 1: I won't be paying a deposit 2: I will be paying cash on completion 3: I am on a budget so I might do one job at a time if it's too expensive so could do with 1 or 2 quotes for all the jobs and then small quotes for each job if my budget is no where near enough --------- Small end terrace requires many jobs in order of priority: OUTSIDE: A) Locate route cause and repair leak in brickwork B) point up bricks where they are bad on wall (possible further pointing up if price is good) C) supply and fit small metal gate to front of property D) paint top half of front cream wall paint (this is on top of old cream stipple paint- needs brightening up) only 1 floors worth as downstairs is bare brick E) replace loose tiles on roof and straighten up ones which have moved. Including replacing front plastic guttering from grey to black (3metres worth) F) quote for new wooden gate and surround for bcd alley- NOTE it's a shared gate so I'll need neighbour to pay up half so this job might never happen) INSIDE: G) strip 2 downstairs reception rooms and decorate with cream plain wallpaper on 3 Walls and patterned on 1 wall. 1 of these rooms includes stair wall upstairs. Include ceilings in quote but might just ask for a White paint coat on ceilings instead to save money H) either supply and fit or I'll supply a remnant and require fitting for a Lino floor in bathroom I) same as H but carpet for stairs and landing. Will need 1brass door clip as got 2others already. J) house is already rewired but I broke a light fitting- have a new one so just need it fitting -10min job but no idea how so could be done while decorating if knowledge of electrics. Local tradesmen only- if you are based more than 25 miles away please do not contact me as I will know of you and so will have no recommendations or word of mouth. Thank you
