  1. point 1 - cost point 2 - cost point 3 - cost point 4 - cost
  2. @Ferdinand it sold really quickly, obviously the appliances were a big part of that.
  3. well if 27k is too much, perhaps this is better value, unfortunately now sold. we'll probably be buying from here. check out original price. https://www.usedkitchenexchange.co.uk/shop/sold/very-very-large-smallbone-of-devises-used-kitchen-wolf-sub-zero-miele-gaggenau-kitchen-appliances/
  4. wouldn't buy a house with a shared drive, too many problems can be encountered, tell vendor to sue his solicitor.
  5. @Nick1c it depends on whether you want to hit or exceed building regs. if you wish to acheive min insulation timber is the easiest to source, find a joiner to buid a kit and insulate. if you wish to exceed regs, as many of us do, I beams are one of the ways. choose 350mm to get .1u value with blown cellulose, so no air spaces. you will still have an external cavity so damp shouldn't be a problem. this is the way i'm going though i'm having a service void to alow me to insulate then run water/elec at my leisure.
  6. buy an Austin seven, simples.
  7. looks fine to me, how often will you be looking at it?
  8. @lizzie i'm presuming you don't want to remove it to do it properly

  11. a hank of 5mm rope from b&q and a quick look here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0KJuqsJJ_k i would aso look to rotate the starter so it doesn't rub as it pulls as this was the problem i had, now no wear
  12. hefty for charging batteries, if i were you i'd get one with a 110v socket as well, may never use it, however, if it ain't there and you do need it.........
  13. depends on size, i bought one from costco, has started fine. only problem was it wore through pullcord very quickly three times, i rotated pull position and has been fine since
  14. instead of putting into powerpoint i put mine into publisher, when saving you can then increase dpi to 300 and save as jpeg

  16. this one https://earth.nullschool.net/ is quite good as well
  17. this one https://earth.nullschool.net/ is quite good as well
  18. EDPM roofing material is far superior to the felt roofs of old, however, i have fitted many torch on felt roofs and found it to be a good product. i did burn the felt to the osb as opposed to sticking basic felt to the roof by pouring hot tar over the osb and then torching felt to that. 'but that's the way we've done it for years'.............
  19. at least we should all have a hard hat for when the sky falls in. ?

  22. we did the same in Edinburgh self build, he came down to see us and discuss the project. A sad day indeed, a genuinely nice guy who will be sadly missed. As with others, our thoughts with family and colleagues.
  23. appreciate not the same window maufacturer but install vid https://velfac.co.uk/domestic/Installation/ colleague is fitting some in the future and was looking up 'how to'
  24. if the opening is wider than the space between the joists it's a bit more than that
