Internal blockwork: spec feedback
Simplysimon replied to bmj1's topic in Bricklaying, Blockwork & Mortar
yup, unless you want to go back to using cut nails -
looks like wet rot but need more/better photos and detail as to where the stairs are to help you

looks good, should have gone with hooks though, nice and easy to replace any. bend hook, slide slate out slide new slate in on a slate ripper to catch the top of the batten, bend hook back, job done. try that with double nailed slates.

New series of Grand Designs 31st August 2022
Simplysimon replied to Thorfun's topic in Property TV Programmes
some of us don't broadcast our mistakes, but it's good people have the spheres {yellow?) to do so -
looks good cleaned, however, with the moss covering i think roofs blend into the landscape a bit more especially in the country, home for bugs and food for birds but obviously gutters need cleaning.
