I thought some of the manufacturers of these sheets supply the ends with the insulation cut back, you 100% don’t want the insulation exposed, creatures will chomp at it, definitely needs a flashing over it.

We chased in and fitted conduit, loads of messy work, but I feel it makes the plasterboard feel more solid, by fitting the boards directly to the icf without a void. if you use sodal squirty foam behind the boards it bonds directly to the icf as well as screwing.

Forget fitting any additional insulation it is 100% not needed, forget the u value of nudura blocks for some reason it just looks poor on paper, they don’t add additional insulation in Canada you certainly won’t need it. you will wonder why you fitted a heating system at all once you move in, sort the airtightness and heating will be the least of your worries.

Why not put the tilting filler under the ply rip a 300-400 mm strip of ply and tilt that up behind the facia, on top of this goes an eaves tray then membrane on top of the eaves tray. I believe you can get eaves tray and vent strip in one now, but I’ve never used them.

Well yea, loads of bits I missed out, but it should get him going in the right direction.

Mine came with a bit heavy duty black neoprene type bung that had a hole pre cut in the centre a bit of a tight fit that I rammed inside the duct.

TBH that drawing is all a bit wrong delete out the two battens at the bottom they won’t be there lift the facia up to 25mm below the bottom tile add an over facia vent on top of the facia to make up the 25mm height.

Easier and quicker to go and buy a new pop up waste and fit it, 15 minute job.

There’s a mini hanger called either a TRIPLE GRIP or MULTI GRIP it’s a small metal plate with a cut in it that can be used in many ways, but by bending it with a hammer you can get 3 fixing points out of it, hence why I call them triple grips. they are about £1.50 each. fix with twist nails.

I used the zinzer perma white, no complaints so far. make sure you properly dust down that contract shite.

I ordered a couple of high end easily damaged things for the house and found out that the company had gone back to employing its own delivery driver in there own van, they said it was far cheaper than all the damaged stuff from couriers. I think more companies should be looking at this.

Been there 3 years now, not a bit of movement, kiln dried timber with a near zero moisture content.

Don’t use a sprayer with the tubular filters in the gun, they last 5 minutes and block up. shultz gun as mentioned above.

gas, glass hob, a bit different. Crappy photo I’m afraid.

You said it was hidden behind the acco drain i personally wouldn’t accept it at all. so get 3 courses knocked off and get it built properly. I think you are setting yourself up to fail. if this was my job i would have banged a stake in on each corner that would have 3-4 crucial measurements on them. checking it after it is built is a bit late.
