  1. I’m doing work on an old barn that’s being timbered out like you describe I can take a few pics if you drop me a reminder
  2. If it doesn’t cause the render to wag off you will be left with a massive clean up job after the rendering is finished
  3. Yep We render right through the winter The render will stand cold temperatures But frost is the worst enemy It needs to be 2 above and rising through the day Ideally scraped the same day Better to have your gutters on Even in summer
  4. The Senco ones are the cheapest and do the same job
  5. It would depend on the quote If a detailed quote costing and listing every stage You should be fine
  6. They would be mad to do this He just need to do the obvious Go round at the end of each day Make the site is secure Holes are covered Scaffolding is safe for the following day Accident book diving in book First aid kit Lots of signs Contractors won’t care about any of the above
  7. Unfortunately As the the client Most of the HSE will fall on your shoulders If there’s a serious accident HSE will come looking for you If you where to employ a main contractor They would take this on
  8. I run a render company and would never run the render directly against a ally window Joiners or builders for that matter wouldn’t really know If you contact K or Webber or who ever is supplying your render They will all spec a stop bead where the render meets another material
  9. It is needed It also makes it much easier for the renderer Mesh first then bead on top unlike the photo
  10. I’m doing some micro cement at a job in a couple of weeks Walls and floors Similar cost to tiles I’ve also some engineered flooring at a job I’m at today Glued down But you will still need perimeter expansion gaps
  11. Unfortunately it is
  12. Which ever you decide to do Use a rotating sponge float It will bring the fat to the surface and come up like glass
  13. It’s crazy how rules can be so different between the two
  14. I’ve never been asked by LA BC on either of our builds Still don’t understand why the site doesn’t publish location Saves all this nonsense I help moderate two unrelated sites and add the region to everyone’s Avatars
  15. Yeah I think it applies more to large scale urban renewal Most new developments have thousand of ton of waste taken from site But that’s mostly Clay and isn’t effected by this FOR NOW
  16. I keep saying it But I can’t understand why we all don’t have our location shown Would be helpful Guessing Scotland
  17. No £4 a tone now Going to increase I didn’t here the whole interview But I think the argument was that housing built on redeveloped sites would increase in price Which seems at odds with this government’s housing policies
  18. nod

    Bull floats

    The smaller ones are hand floats Hire a 1200 and a swivel pole
  19. I was listening to Andrew Marr and he was discussing it Not yet legislation But as likely as a wealth tax Sounded like a done deal for next month Is there going to be anything left for Nigel
  20. Tip of the iceberg
  21. My thoughts exactly
  22. If stupid was an Olympic sport This government would win a gold medal
  23. Forget the backer board Use a a Ditra Matt Bombproof
  24. I built them out of plasterboard and skimmed and bought the doors to match the rest of the house from Howdens The inserts are from Amazon
