  1. Ask them to lend you £12.67 and see what happens
  2. You have what you have, so let the SE come out and advise you accordingly . Just relax and follow the process.
  3. If you need to borrow a pukka Milwanky router / hinge jig kit for when you go to do the doors and linings just PM me, and all you'll need to cover is just the P&P both ways if so. Router / batteries etc all in the kit too, so plug 'n play
  4. Do you have some pics, as it is possible you are worrying about nothing. We can see if there's defo an issue if we can see it
  5. It appears to be ‘blown’, eg the surrounding render / dash is all likely going to need to be taken back to something solid, as restoring that (without trusting the issue) will just lead to it failing again. Issue is, when rain gets in to the cracks etc and it freezes, further blowing the render. Needs a bit of extra TLC
  6. You can make up (or maybe buy) a union that reverses 3/4” male to a female (3/4” coupler) and then have 2x hep2o manifolds to the same thing, so the first facing up, and the second facing down; the hep units link male > female, and sit in the same direction, hence you’d need to rectify that so you could go male > male or female > female, whichever works better. Obvs you’d have an issue creating the looped feed to both ends, but tbh with good pressure and no 28mm pipework, I doubt there’s any need to create the looped feed. or which will allow you to flip the second one 180°
  7. I thought we were close....but now I feel like I don't know you at all. You stole my OCD, and all the tray, the damage is done. 😭
  8. With loss of dexterity etc a shataf would be impractical vs a Geberit / other “hands free super-loo”. Those wash and dry your undercarriage, however you still need to press buttons on a panel or remote control. Still, designed for folk who are least able or have assisted living.
  9. List them in the marketplace here https://forum.buildhub.org.uk/forum/47-market-place/
  10. Not 45's, use a pair of 15's Just don't tell @Russell griffiths
  11. How hands on are you in terms of heavy graft, 1st & 2nd fix carpentry, boarding, floor coverings etc? @nod is a 1 man army, and multidisciplinary, hence his very low costs. Good to see you’ve gone through an estimator as that’s always a sobering process, obvs with the aim of deleting what / who you can and replacing with your own time and skills.
  12. Tell them they shouldn’t have paid the damaged tiles, end of, and simply ask that they take those back for e free exchange. They’ll whinge that they’ve been fitted so can’t be returned, which is where you say “you should have returned them upon inspection” and stick to your guns. Explain that any which are damaged, further, from no use of a roof ladder, will also constitute damage / defect. Can you tell them asap so the scaffold stays up?
  13. Put it back together and take another photo lol.
  14. Quickest and easiest thing for you to do is to mix up some drywall adhesive and fill it in, with a bit of DPC laid down first, as @nod states. Leave that DPC long, do the filling, and then cut the excess off when you've skimmed it all. 12.5mm PB with skim is 30 min, no need for 15mm PB as that gives 30 min when no skim is applied.
  15. I would have thought that relates to changes in legislation for commercial food hygiene perhaps, as for domestic nobody would care 2 hoots how / what you strained tbh. That's my only guess!
