Home Improvements - Logic Puzzles

After a recent spate of home improvements, four couples were having a dinner party to discuss the additions to their houses.

Alan had not recently had a new bathroom. Kara had not yet done her kitchen, but perhaps would update it next. Brian, who is married to Maud, had not had new windows. Laura delighted in showing photographs of her new conservatory. Neither Charles nor David had a new kitchen. Julie had not had new windows. Alan, who also had not had windows, is not married to Laura and Charles is not married to Kara.
Who is married to whom, and what work had they recently undertaken, assuming that each couple had one improvement and no two couples had the same improvement.

Bungalows - Logic Puzzles

There are four bungalows in our cul-de-sac. They are made from these materials: straw, wood, brick, and glass.

Mrs Scott's bungalow is somewhere to the left of the wooden one, and the third one along from the left is brick.

Mrs Umbrella owns a straw bungalow, and Mr Tidsley does not live at either end but lives somewhere to the right of the glass bungalow.

Mr Wilshaw lives in the fourth bungalow, while the first bungalow is not made from straw.

Who lives where, and what is their bungalow made from?
