Good to see that things are progressing well. That DPC and insulation looks the nuts

Welcome. Have fun with your build.

Finished, after a few false starts.

Here's that post I made reference to above

Chased in with a hot knife - I posted a video on here when I did it. Most services are in our web joist ceilings. We also have the standard 0.24 U blocks. We didn't go bonkers with AT and got a 1.8 result. I've since blocked up some major known leak points but can't be bothered with a retest. Our heating was not on much last winter.

About 300mm in my case

That is a neat solution. Maybe a bit OTT even for me 😀

Youtube has answered A plate between the top of the wall and the panel, then the eaves flashing goes over the top. The water falls between the two.

Anyone there? The hub seems a quiet slow place these days. Either that or I've upset you all 🙂

Good for you.

After a frustrating time getting damaged deliveries of channels, I scrapped using a recommended supplier from this here hub and found a new supplier closer to home where a perfectionist could collect and transport the good themselves. Also, the top rail came in one piece (5750mm cut to length) which was an interesting 27 mile drive on top of a Volvo V50. But we have started... First piece not quite vertical as two wedges missing from kit. Being posted out to arrive over weekend

On our old house the tarmac drive went tight up to the concrete garage floor, just a little lower, I guess to minimise water being driven into the garage. The drive sloped away from the garage. Just poured our garage slab/floor and I went for level, but didn't achieve it. I need to self level a portion to stop liquid collecting at the back of the garage. I guess that is DPC showing? In which case any concrete should end up below that anyway. What is the channel? Sounds like you may need a step at the fire door.

Eurocell? [Called Bill and Ted 🙂 ]

I want to use an insulated box panel system to roof the new garage using something like below (single pitch about 5 degrees) and am thinking about how to finish the ends of the panels, in particular the gutter end. I can only seem to find "flat" eaves flashing which talk about it being installed underneath the roof panel. Anyone fitted similar product? How have you finished the gutter end?

In my case, the handrails came in such cardboard tubes. However, in this particular case all three have started to come apart. I've decided the whole lot is being returned for a refund and I'll go somewhere else here in Kernow that has been recommended. In a strange way, I am happy to hear that there are many other examples of crap packaging and delivery techniques happening across the country
