I’ve a 8 way booster in the loft and intend fixing an indoor aerial Ive looked online loads to choose from prices vary Is it worth paying a premium Or are they much of a muchness

Like others on here Ive built in a small alcove in the showera My wife has decided she would like it lit I can easily fish a wire down and Conections to the downlights But I’ve looked online and can’t seem to find the lights we want Small as possible and waterproof

I would also remind him that he’s had a good earner out of the rest of the job and been paid on time Even if he only manages 15 mtrs per day it’s not a bad earner Problem is that everyone is still busy

Not a the moment sorry I suspect that is why your tiler is trying you with a high quote

My dream job if all the falls are done and correct £2500 would be plenty This time of year

Thanks

Can anyone recommend a wired intercom with a viewer So many on eBay

I’ve a friend who instals for a living He uses CAME auto kits great price and never has any call backs

I get asked for quite a lot of this kind of render now The golden rule was never to render to the floor as it would act like a sponge I’ve got over this by base coating and wrapping the whole wall with a fibre mesh and top coat with K rend The wet on the top doesn’t seem to bother the render You can continually jet wash the render without it doing any harm If it was to stain in a few years It’s not a big job to roller a K rend colour enhancer on Its a nice look and can see why you like it

No he’s actually a local independent The owner is a nice guy Simalar products to Roccoa ctd But they undercut both Accept for adhesive I have accounts at all three plus another independent I wouldn’t exspect them to give the same discount to a one off order it would think you could negotiate somewhere inbetween I normally buy the tiles and adhesive and pass 50% onto the custerner

I paid 300 for foundation design for a five bed house plus two double garages Try another SE

Just a word of warning I called at the tile supplier to pick up tiles for tomorrow’s job A couple had bought the same tiles that I was collecting and paid £31 per mtr I will be billed £13 per mtr plus vat Bargain hard when you are buying

When I have put land drains in i have packed them with pipe bedding or simalar Above and below we are on clay at our current home I put land drains at the front and back as the garden regularly flooded still working fine some twenty years on Only draw back is in dry spells Yellow lines spear on the lawns

20k is a ridiculous figure SE is a must We paid £300 for a visit and foundation design and a further £200 for steel calcs I wouldn’t use an architect again We changed no end of things on his design Roof floor B&B were designed by suplyers We paid the Architect £2000 So shop around

We’ve no household contents to store but we use our newly built garage age to store tools and equipment to a simalar value to yours we checked with build one and they told us we would need to fit an alarm Which we did to comply withere conditions

100k is a big ask we are doing most of the work ourselfs and quickly spent a 100 k on materials We spent 50 getting foundations and drainage in yiu are best costing the raw materials to get the structure up

Contacting Openreach directly is like trying to contact MI5 directly Only harder Im just in the process of get a phone line While I’m not as remote you We will have to use overhead wire Crossing a busy road I spoke to BT They have an offer at the moment Commit to 18 months broadband £30 per month Think that’s including line £59 new Conections Regardless of distance or difficulty

All the above are good points But most of all you must like the look of the frames Your going to be looking at them for a long time

I don’t think this will even affect mainstream house builders You will have private company’s desperate for their business That won’t want to rock the boat

I just wondered what you guys are doing The bathroom rated lights I have are quite bulky

I have fifteen bathroom downlights I intend insulating the loft with 450 insulation My electrician friend has sugested that it isn’t a good idea to cover the downlights and to cut round them even though they are LED Leaving fifteen cold spots I think I can rember Dave perhaps suggesting covering with a plant pot Or is it safe to cover with insulation

Some great ideas As you say they costings seem way off

Italian Spanish Turkish& Portuguese vitra are miles ahead ahead of the other Turkish tiles They tend to follow the Italian designs

Quite bit more than that But it well worth paying the exstra £300 As they will look as good in ten years time

I’ve an account at ctd The more exspensive ones are Italian Reall hard waring and great to cut The others although Turkish are from the largest Turkish factory Vitra But the print isn’t what the Italian ones are Roccia have the best of the Italian at £48 They will come down to £29 for volume and they are super flat and easy to lay
