When to change build insurance to home insurance
nod replied to Gaz Bancroft's topic in New House & Structural Warranties
You need to switch the day you move in Insurance company arnt interested in when you get your completion certificate -
Yes The effected units will need replacing
-
It won’t make any difference wait 12 months
-
You can get the plumber and plaster in any order But most will get the plumber first Easier to run wires around pipes than the other way round Your plumber will put the pipe work in for the boiler and put the boiler in with the Rads bath etc on a second fix after plastering and paint

We’ve had this twice The installer is out tomorrow or Weds He seams to think it’s air between the pump and the buffer tank He said in any case it’s a flow problem man’s will be easy to find I’ll keep you posted -
Restraint Type Joist Hangers
nod replied to Paul Sweeney's topic in House Extensions & Conservatories
Use one of these hooked into the cavity 1500x2mil thick are best They need to span three joists Take a 2 mil notch out of the top of the joist to stop the floorboards rocking You will also need to nog under the strap and nail or screw the strap down -
If BC insist You can always put a slit in afterwards
-
No I never have Some BC insist in this But I can’t see any good reason I’ve asked the last two BC and they have said it’s up to you
-
I’m guessing you’ve tried the installer They really should come out on the day you move in Id a similar issue a few weeks ago Went round in Circles with the manual Called the installer who was home with Covid He just said let me face time you and reset everything Ten minutes and it was all sorted Your ok if your like John Mo and know what you are looking at Ours was something to do with outside temp compensation Yep meant nothing to me either So annoying when it’s probably something really simple
-
As long as you leave a clear air passage It will be fine
-
Fine as it is I let tha cavity insulation rise above the wall plate an act as a stop end for the roof insulation Giving a continuous 50 void

nod replied to Benpointer's topic in New House & Self Build Design
We decided to vault three ceilings and have the DS ceilings at 2.8 Absolutely no benefits But look bloody great 😊 -
Ideally you want the points of the pattern facing you as you come through the door

We didn’t want to cover our beautiful slate roof with horrible solar panels As stated our buyer has decided to put these things up The salesmen has predicted around £700 per year saving 12 k supply and fit If the saving is correct and I’ve no reason to doubt a salesman 15 years to break even is a long time and the batteries will probably need replacing by then Definitely not a no brainer
