    Screed

    19 cube in 27 deg, not funny! will try to put pics up if i don't fall asleep.
  3. digger swings round and oops, sorry. we'll rebuild as it was with proper foundations. happens all the time.
  4. that'll be the boys who power wash upwards and paint to 'protect' it, a few hundred in the back pocket and 'thank you ma'am'
  5. have good ventilation!
  6. we've a jura bean to cup from costco, used daily and produces a good cup of coffee. we use taylors espresso beans £14/kg though local sainsburys are now stocking their own 1kg bags at £9 will try to see how good. one of the nicest coffees was lavazza crema and something but haven't found it recently. type of coffee makes a bit difference to crema
  7. we were 7-10m asl in the previous house, going to be 90m when built, will be nice to have a house near the beach.
  8. like noddy up here. (fish wife)
  9. i could never understand sandtex, as an outdoor masonry paint i would want as smooth a paint finish as possible. having it smooth doesn't allow dirt to accumulate, sandtex on the other hand is a rough texture which dirt will adhere to. in the past we used weathershield masonry paint
  10. poystyrene insulation as opposed to kingspan. different materials and different u- values.
  11. if you need them relatively soon,within next 6-9 months, don't bother. i asked for a quote and months later got a response. it's a good job they are busy as their communication is almost non existant and i would not recommend them
  12. not on mine they wont!
  13. a camera on a phone, what will they think of next, i thought i was doing well with a titanium case ?
  14. obviously a thick brown envelope changed hands ?
  15. £100 discount for requesting a brochure ? be quick!
  16. depends if you are going readymix or volumetric, volumetric will give a consistent mix every time and to the consistency you want but will be more expensive. i've used these guys before https://www.dandmhaulage.co.uk/
  17. @Anitha have you looked at sold prices in the area to give you an idea as to what they're going for
  18. keeps the air from drying out. your house will have a humidity, which will vary between rooms, a dry room will be unpleasant.
  19. takes the moisture out of the stale air and puts it back into the house rather than down the drain. https://www.zehnder.co.uk/products-and-systems/comfortable-indoor-ventilation/enthalpy
  20. out of curiosity, can you walk on the pipes whilst concreting? i'm clipping into trays not to the insulation
  21. glad i read this, i have seen enthalpy mentioned but not researched it. i think for the additional cost (£200) i'll have it fitted.
  22. give your drawing to wunda and they'll design it for you
  23. well going by the the shower screen post, at least you can look down on them.
