Nhbc won’t do a private warrantee Though there are plenty that will We took a Protec as we new we would sell within the ten years and most of the lenders have them in there top three Some of the lenders won’t accept an Architecht cert HSBC being one As Joe has already pointed out A warranty is not worth the paper it’s printed on Though if there’s another lockdown it may come in handy if the shops run out of toilet roll

While they say that the filter needs replacing every 3 years Ours needed cleaning after six months Very easy to take apart and clean Wouldn’t be without it

The quooker warrantee is pretty poor Parts only?

All in

Round here NW of England most sites are paying £20 plus m2

I wouldn’t beat yourself up about paying upfront Most want payment upfront We ordered a German Nolte kitchen Four items badly damaged A 5 mtr stainless finger rail was badly scratched But wrapped anyway I don’t think any of the kitchen suppliers cover themselves in glory when it comes to Customer service

Your most efficient way regarding CGT would be to live in the bungalow Build the house Sell the bungalow and move into the house Six months down the line you can sell the house if you wanted to

If you contact K Rend Give them the colour They will send you a repair tube free of charge Two minutes for you to gun fill it

No it’s no overkill If it’s a wet room you must tank the floor OSB 3 wouldn’t have been my first choice for a wet room floor

You will get patches that are in the shade showing brownish As the k Rend is porous Probably worth dealing with the nasty crack before the frost sets in

BC perhaps isn’t sure what he is asking you I supply fireproofing and labour to sites The site manager and inspectors have little or no knowledge of this They just make sure that the spec that I have prepared is followed to the letter and trust that what I’ve put my name to is correct Your BC will need the same thing Accompanied by a report from your contractor giving the fire ratings Perhaps a comparison comparing the rating for the multi with and without OSB Which would amount to the same rating It would be very difficult to check the work without knowing what he is checking If your contractor isn’t familiar with all this The suppliers Technical department will help As Liam has already stated there won’t be a Fire Certificate as all buildings are different BC just needs that bit of paper The next one he comes across he will tell them This is how I want it done

I do the fire ratings as part of the tenders I submit If you are using an experienced contractor he should be able supply all of this as part of his quote While he won’t give you a certificate as such He will be able to supply breakdown of the fire rating and something to say the OSB isn’t needed Hes probably not come across this and wants something in writing You will have to fire seal all joints on the multi

You can usually tell the quality of a trade by the finishing Your right to be concerned

Doesn’t inspire confidence

Your ok with quite low temperatures But both need to be bone dry

I used fibreglass which is virtually indestructible Most commercial use GRP

I built tradition and have been doing the costings for our second I’ve looked long and hard at TF Both build types I’m very familiar with If I use TF It will cost me around 25% more

I’ve Hitachi in first and second fix Same gas and nails as Pas Half the price of Pas Do exactly the same job 12 months guarantee Tool monkey .com

Only a garage Which I built ours and nest doors with a cavity wall before we started the main house I kept things pretty plumb But keeping the trusses off the wall gave me a little wiggle room Hope this helps

It is a wall plate strap 1500 in length Spanning three trusses the l hooked into the cavity Then built in Four on either pitch 8 in total

Short answer is NO If you can find a decent taper Not just a plasterer that doesn’t a bit You will find the materials are quite a bit more expensive than multi finish You can get a decent finish with Tape But you do need to seal it when it’s all sanded down We spend about half an hour spraying the sealer on BUT the sealer is fifty quid a bucket 3 buckets on a standard 4 bed house Think the issue here is cost It’s no cheaper to tape Possibly slightly quicker in hot weather

Short answer is NO If you can find a decent taper Not just a plasterer that doesn’t a bit You will find the materials are quite a bit more expensive than multi finish

Normally jam an off cut of 3x2 leaving a 50 mill gap If you butt it up tight You May have trouble plumbing the truss

I employ two tapers and numerous plasters My wife and myself did most of the building work on our house I chose to skim ours out myself rather than tape it Taping is ok if it is done correctly But Skimming is a better finish Picture is the 8 floor staircase I taped over lockdown Due to lack of multi finish The client rejected it due to it not being as durable as Skimming Four days wasted We had to spend nearly a week over skimming
