  • About Me
    40 years in IT, then made redundant, which has helped enormously in building. Helped with building renovations and extensions, but it was always a dream to build our own energy efficient house. Well, here we are having started (properly) in late 2020, and very proud of what we have achieved (so far!)

  1. Don't go into business without a very good accountant 😀
  2. This might do the job but there is an ambiguous picture in the listing. The phone call is needed to clarify whether it will work before forking out a sh1t load of wonga https://www.drainagesuperstore.co.uk/product/accesso-ic160-600mm-reduction-cap-350mm-circular-access.html
  3. @Mike, either would do, as long as there is some reduced diameter riser before the cover goes on
  4. Talk to someone. That's a radical solution. Hope I'm not met by a bot!! 😉
  5. Mike, the 600mm Risers are already there 😀 Thats what I want to reduce from
  6. Yeah, seen those, but it seems there is no ability to then add 320mm or 350mm riser on top of it. Something like this: https://www.tradepipes.co.uk/320mm-diameter-chamber-riser-135mm-high?source=googlebase&msclkid=d5cfa3ce6b6b1d0776b3c94ae6007d73&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Shopping Campaign&utm_term=4577816667752085&utm_content=Underground Drainage
  7. I have two installed inspection chambers of 600mm diameter both of which are to be reduced in height following a landscaping design change. As part of that change we're also looking to reduce the drain cover size to 320 or 350mm still allowing access for any required clearing. I can find plenty of access restriction or shaft reducing caps, but none of these look like they are designed to allow a change from one riser diameter to another e.g 600mm to 320/350mm (hope the next diagram explains it a bit more) | | ___| |___ | | | | Anyone know of a suitable "riser diameter changer" product?
  8. Love the exhaust and radiator setup on the orange triumph 😀
  9. What is this talk of only using at weekends? Blasphemy! Probably just have a Willis heater and timer setup on a 12C setback temp, with a 15C working temp. Did I mention the proposed 4 post lift 🙂
  10. UFH loops in the slab already with 100mm PIR underneath 😀
  11. For clarity, currently the floor is the foundation slab, poured with C25 concrete. It was covered with plastic sheeting in the warm weather, and will need grinding and levelling (or the other way round) before I do anything. Tiles? I'm bound to drop a hammer or spanner when working in the car/s 😀 probably give this a miss. Which i think narrow MY choice to a 2 part (2k?) epoxy. So, any preferences on 2 part (non slip) epoxies?
  12. @Great_scot_selfbuild, curious about what the 110mm pipe coming through the wall is for?
  13. Which make? We used one as a temporary measure and parts of it are still tacky after 3 years
  14. Its getting close to the time for the garage to get its floor covering 😀 Epoxy resin. Product recommendations please. Can it be DIY'd?
  15. But then I wouldn't have had the headroom I wanted inside
