  1. Visually I can get a almost identical option in mild steel but I am trying to look a products with a longer life span so potentially less maintenance in the future hence the use of aluminium, ,the property is relatively well insulated along with the complete ground floor having UFH,
  2. My build is at the point where I need to settle on the style, material ,size etc for the few radiators I will need, so a mix of vertical and horizontal radiators are required, aluminium is a option although I have no experience of brands to avoid etc ,mhs, K.RAD, Vogue UK, Apollo, Renia etc, guarantees vary from 5yrs to 15yrs along with varying costs, any thoughts experiences etc appreciated
  3. Thanks for the replies, if anything the British Gypsum boards seem to have very slightly thicker vapour barrier but other than that are identical ,although the Gtec seem to be slightly harder on the board construction, when fixing the screws are easily pushed through the Gypsum board
  4. hi, in the process of ordering PIR insulated plasterboard, used British Gypsum items recently and also Gtec,both seem identical visually, due to quantity required prices have varied but the Gtec ones seem to be the cheapest, any thoughts on out of the two is the better product
  5. Currently waiting on a quotation on origin aluminium window option from a manufacturer/distributor local to me the warmcore alternative was mentioned so interested in price comparison, personally not had experience of either , due to the amount of windows in my build whatever I choose it going to be painful, so ideally looking for a robust well made and durable product for the money, originally I was looking at upvc but due to the non standard shapes of some of my windows it would be difficult to produce a window that would function look right etc,
  6. The composite windows I have also no experience with any brand recommendations
  7. Apologies if subject been covered before but looking for bifold doors and aluminium windows, a manufacturer has bee,been suggested to me called Alu haus located in Nottingham, personally not come across them but would be interested to hear of anyone who as used the warmcore product they produce ,
  8. Thanks for the opinions will stick to what I know,
  9. Had the rep for the Hybris product visit me ,obviously trying to sell the product promoting all the benefits etc also mentioned that its gained NHBC and LABC approval, price wise it's also cheaper per sqm than the make up that I am used to using , so Hybris or Kingspan etc
  10. The limited information I can find regards the Actis product is not the present material ,I think a lot of negative opinion was associated with a earlier product but I have no experience of either ,
  11. Hi probably been covered but here goes, looking to insulate attic truss pitched roof and Hybris insulation keeps being suggested to me but I have no experience of using this product ,my timbers are 175mm so a 125mm Hybris between timbers along with the 40/45mm Hcontrol Hybrid over the top,taped counter batten and plasterboard, in the past used the appropriate Kingspan etc with insulated plasterboard, fitting the Kingspan is a job I don't personally enjoy so potentially the Hybris is a less time consuming less messy alternative, so any thoughts appreciated
  12. Hi all , currently a few months into a two phase project phase one being large extension with attached garages hopefully should the weather ever dry up phase two to start soon and blend existing property with new extension, so plenty of potential material to discuss, look forward to your input
