Self builder just entering the build stage after many months in planning hell. Keen on near-passive standard build methods, PV and ESS, home networking. Some DIY experience but first time builder.
Oh, I’m so sorry Geoff. I hate to think of you waiting but admire the commitment. I know I didn’t commit either way but had hoped to come. Unfortunately could not make it.
Yes, mostly excellent. Got a few snags to iron out with the slider (they didn’t install the soft closer and it has paint issues) and with the French doors (not locking quite as well as expected). Their snagging team should be onsite next week to resolve.
Three, though one went home at the weekend. The others worked through. They did a lot of fiddly carpentry to get the base for their air tight inner roof membrane.
I’m sorry I missed you all. My build is going better now that I’ve brought in some proper carpenters to sort my cladding out. MBC’s air tightening team have been here a week now and the difference inside is amazing.
That’s a long run of hose. I’m no expert but your problem may be down to that, and/or the suction from your extractor. Sorry, probably not told you any thing you didn’t know. I’ve just sold my soul for a Dewalt extractor…
Hi all. Please share your solutions for compliant window and door detailing. I’ve gone with Tenmat intumescent cavity closers at the eves but am closing the cavity with timber around windows and doors. These cavities are still ventilated through the eves. What did you do?
Turns out the windows will be delivered with a HIAB which should be fine. 21degrees sent me their generic delivery info which defaults to an attic. Phew!
