There's some interesting stuff about increasing loft volume in the permitted development guidance. I was looking as I'd like to convert the hips to gable ends.

I did wonder seeing the orange juice on the pub table the other day. Knew it wasn't yours!

Let's hope the council aren't reading this! ?

However many pages, I'm sure 50% will be pi$$taking!

Congratulations!

Have a look here at the bottom of the link at the installation bit if you want to add legitimacy to the idea. I used the red Polypipe panels btw as did I think @PeterW Not sure if I would again as I reckon I'm au fait enough now to clip straight to the pir but it's damn quick and easy! Pretty cheap too. https://www.polypipe.com/housing/polypipe-underfloor-heating/solid-floor-systems

The ballast is just sitting there waiting to be mixed! Hardcore at the ready. There's a new wind in my sails at the moment seemingly!

I know you have to be bloody careful what you stick on glass to avoid it cracking. Especially if you stick "it" to one leaf only on commercial DG units.

I was given a free shed and didn't stop to think! I merrily went ahead, picked a spot out and excavated it. I build a base with a decent slab with a DMP underneath. I then built dwarf walls from some left over stocks and Celcon blocks and erected the shed on top. Tbh I should have chopped the thing up for firewood and sold it at the gate in bags putting the cash towards a proper shed! Given the available area it's not big enough to swing a cat in. But we are where we are... Looking then to, as cheap as possible, add a small side extension on. (Tbh I want to knock down the treehouse and wendy house elsewhere and build a 30m2 passive esque shed come garden room with green roof but that's for another thread). I'd put the little extension in the excavated bit where the water barrel is: The site slopes so I was thinking maybe cast a waterproof concrete wall on 2 maybe 2.5 sides and key a new slab into the existing one. If I cast the base first with some rebar sticking up around the edges then the walls later I assume I'll get seepage through between the new L shaped wall and base? Or do I cast floor and walls in two hits then just paint the outside with a liquid DPM? This is tbh only to store a few garden tools, old knackered cement mixer etc. I'll strap a sturdy door post to the existing shed side and make some double doors. As to how I integrate with the existing felt roof...

I'm convincing myself that minimalist is the way to go and that the cupboard will provide ample storage! The only thing is SWMBO is on about having a dirty linen bin in there. Seems a bit wrong to store fresh towels in there too.

Are people fitting just plain tinted film or photochromic transitional film? https://www.windowfilmdepot.com/product/coolvu-transitional/

That reminds me, I must sort the ventilation out or there'll be things growing on the blind...

Earth tape is always an option for peeps digging trenches.

Must admit it crossed my mind as I'm not a fan of the existing basin/pedestal combo anyway. Veering towards a tall pocket over the wall. That'll be fun as it's a solid brick wall. Maybe when I gut the room next door!

Pretty sure similar was suggested to me for the pockets but of course, me being me I took heed of the words of Lindsey Buckingham.... Don't want towels over the wc and impractical in the wet room corner: White painted wall too high? No good on this wall: Over the bath maybe?

@JSHarris, what would the payback be if you were to retrofit Sageglass?

Really screwed up with the new bathroom storage wise I think. Just got the big cupboard. Would have liked some inset towel shelves for effect. Hindsight etc!

Have a read here:

Nor do extended pub lunches!

Bicester would be a day out?

Aim is to mock up the bog roll dispenser on the bench with a Perspex side to observe the action and tweak as required. I'm bringing power down into the cupboard anyway so can tap off for any "rolls left" counter, auto retracting holder etc.

More like "The Last English Iris" Cool though.

What is this? I like it.

Gotta love Viz:
