Plenty for sale on the internet but a lot look quite flimsy. Any recommendations on where to buy new. Thanks

How much timber cladding is too much timber cladding?
mjc55 replied to JCL's topic in New House & Self Build Design
Need a bit more to go on than just a question! Full timber cladding? Half brick, half timber? All elevations? Etc. Etc. -
I built a concrete pad and put external box on top. Will remove next year when house is built

Week 15 - UFH, screed, and render base coat

I'm so impressed on how efficiently things are running for you. Of course there are always things to think (and worry) about but tbh you are making great progress. -
Or run in safe zones (within 150mm of corners or horizontally/vertically from switches etc.)

Proposed flat roof warm deck build-up: request for comment
mjc55 replied to bmj1's topic in Flat Roofs
No comments on this question? Anyone have any views re the tissue v foil faced insulation? -
30 sq. m. Is related to building control, not planning. And that is dependant on proximity to boundaries and construction type.
-
So what part of building regs is concerned with such things? You need to ask them what you have to conform to in order to live there. Load of old bo**ocks as far as I can see.

Are you likely/able to change the internal layout without affecting size/position of windows/doors? CIL can be a complete pain by all accounts so be very careful.
-
I don't agree that we are saying the same thing but there you go, let's agree to disagree!

@Spinny I think your logic is flawed! The part from outside your property to the drain on your land is indeed public sewer, from the drain to the boundary with your neighbour is 'Lateral' therefore responsibility of water co. Everything else, from the drain on your land to your house is your responsibility and from the fence onwards is the neighbours responsibility.

The first house that connects to the drain run will still have private drains, it is only the subsequent connections that are public. i.e. the property where the run commences.
-
You haven't looked at the diagram. The neighbours drains are private.

Could have a look here Includes the statement On page 7 there are diagrams indicating how this would change the ownership of various parts of the system.
