I have used 9” DPC before now 🤷‍♂️

Never heard of this before but googled it and it’s sounds good to me.

Maybe worth trying this. https://septictank-shop.co.uk/category/septic-tank-bacteria/

Plus @zoothornif this is a local damp atmosphere thing like you say then that is not a building regulation fail!!

Or beads poured in (as long as it’s not windy eh!). All I know about them is they are glued together in the horizontal but there appears to be no “glue” in the vertical joints, yes they are staggered but not air tight so draughty???

I used an old socket end with the rubber removed as a guide and a handsaw, flapweel on angle grinder to chamfer..

BUT 🤷‍♂️

Read that as “inconsistent”, Jeremy had the same problem, found fault with every little issue (which Jeremy usually won), mine was brilliant, just nodded and said “you obviously know what your doing” 😎 (I wish).

Beat me to it 👍

I agree with the above, shop around, you may find something cheaper when it is in stock rather than them ordering it in.

I have two immersions in my tank, when/if I fit PV I would feed excess into the lower one to heat a greater volume rather than hotter at the top!

Interesting but not all roofs are at the same angle surely 🤔

I and others here heat our DHW to 45-48’ with heat pump with a decent COP, why go any higher?

That logic comes with age and maturity, I bet most of us (when younger) rushed into jobs, lost tools, slid about cussing and wasting time when trying to do it quickly, perhaps it’s because I am retired but I have found that better organisation and slower working ends up with less stress, a quicker job in the end and a better job 🥳 I had no stress during my build because of this attitude.

IMO the door on the left (and others if the same) need lowering by a couple of mm by loosening the fixing screws into the frame and sliding the hinge down in the slot) the bin door needs raising (using the slot like @ProDave says above) to match the height of the other door(s). Simples 😎

Not if the bottoms don’t line up like @Radian says above 🤷‍♂️

Yes.

I would not do all that internal work without felt. Not if you just put some batten or insulation over the roof joists before renewing the battens over felt! Raises the roof a couple of inches and I doubt the planners would even notice, but as you say budget dependant eh 🤔

Such a good job, well done, so sorry to hear about your wife and hope she is on the mend. It’s times like those that puts life into perspective.

Ask the supplier! (But I doubt it).

You will need to maintain a 50mm air gap behind those tiles so some pir between rafters then whole sheets over it then plasterboard (with long screws). Are you going to strip the tiles and felt the roof whilst your at it,? May give you the opportunity to raise the roof minimally to give you more insulation (and/or headroom) but so the planners don’t notice the difference.

Temp is right, just apply for planning like the others, if it’s refused go to appeal on the basis planning was granted for the neighbours 🤷‍♂️

Just tell the BCO that the building is still drying out and as it’s a stone building will take some time. My neighbour had similar as (IMO) he moved in too quickly after building, after a few months and re decorating it was all fine.

What’s she done now 🤔

I think your balustrade needs to be inline with the inner edge of the parapet wall, best to talk to your BCO and see what he will accept as there is no continuity in thinking amongst them.
