No he didn’t want them in the footings at all

Good advice I was set to use trench block SE said he didn’t like TB with B.B. floor and to use 7n concrete

I’ve been tiling for over thirty years A lot has changed Ive just spent 1000 including vat on 150 mtrs of ditra for ours Due to the UFH Though some people decide against the extra expense and have no problems We normally put expansion joints every ten mtrs Like I hate them on domestic properties Using ditra help with this But you should put an expansion joint in each door opening

We can’t seem to do any better than the two kitchen suppliers Though one has suggested going for Bosch Which takes it down to 5k We haven’t even considered the utility room

Not included

Should read full height freezer and full height fridge Warming drawer and quooker tap a friend has had a Insikerstor hw tap for five years and paid a quarter of the price of the quooker

Fridge freezer two ovens dish washer induction hob cieling exstractor hot water tap I tried appliances online 7400 sand spec

We need to decide between the two kitchens we have chosen One with AEG appliances the other Neff Both coming in at 7k just for appliances My question is Are the above so much better than appliances at half the price ive just replaced an oven that I put in one of our rental 10 years ago Becko Just replaced it with another Becko from bq £140 Are Neff and AEG going to last any longer Or cook our food any better

That’s exactly what my mate said He also pointed out that the UF pipe wouldn’t be effected by heat

I’m just reading through the Greenstar boiler instructions prior to installing ive come across a section that says that I need to install an external blender to limit the water tempriture that is fed to the UFH The fitter that will comision the boiler says it’s overkill Any thoughts

Put a sample floor down in one ensuite un grouted just in case it has to come up?

I ordered through Roccia these plank tiles are lazer cut and a great design I needed 150 mtrs But batches can vary wildly So ordered direct Roccia knock them out at 46 I paid £29 including vat and carriage

Thanks for the offer Ian Should be ok

Yes everything seems so light without the boards im hoping my willing other half will finish work early and help me glaze the bifolds

Waited six weeks for bifolds and tiles to arrive from Italy 150 mtrs of floor tiles arrived at 8am doors ten minutes later On my own today lug the tiles in and see if I can get the doors fitted

As easy as that

What I normally do is ask for a drawing Itemise everything labour materials and try to keep everything standard That way it is easy to work out if a £100 door has been price for and your other half likes the ones that are £150 Labours very often the same Same goes with concrete muck away Agree a rate Its also worth agreeing with the builder that if your not supplying materials that you will stand any price rises If not he will whack a chunk of money on top Just in case

Hi looking back at my invoices The last lot we bought was from Encon about six weeks back We bought 300 mtrs at £9 per mtr that was Naufe 2.4 x900 sheets These are the best ones to use But we are stuck with what the Architect species Always fixed after the roof The odd job we have done before the roof is completed Useally gets damaged by other trades It needs to be glades then finished Scafold down No arguements over any damage

I’ve had cheap osb on the back of mine for twelve months Still ok

The backing looks dusty and weak mix When applying more than one layer of backing You must go weaker with each layer ie start with a very a strong mix and go weaker A 3-1 scratch coat through out Then a 4-1 mix will never shell and give a perfect background for any finish But as with tiling each coat needs several days to dry out The contractors material costs would be much higher Deumidifiers won’t cause any damage Bit of a lame excuse

Ps We love the planters

My wife’s just said putty we don’t live nearer A days work for one £120 on materials Big house Asumibg you have money to burn £1000 is ridiculous

There’s plasters and plasters myself and my son would exspect more than the rates quoted we have started skiming a three storey four bed three bath house today and will finish it on Wedsday Perfect finish Starr at 7am away by 3 each day Massive difference between the one man bands who are happy to run a vehicle no paid holidays for 120 per day

Your bricklayers should be able to do it for you
