Come find me

The sun was blinding my screen .

You guys cold ???

Tell SWMBO to be quiet and stop complaining 👍 ( at your own risk of course ! )

Many a time have I heard this threads title whilst at the Blue Parrot

Yeah I’ve got 6 walk on skylights and the price is upsetting .

Yeah - your solutions require skill . So not happening 😁

OK! I think that's it. OSB 'ceiling' and just stick this stuff too it !

https://www.panelcompany.co.uk/collections/ceiling-panels/products/gloss-white-v-groove-6mm ? I presume their weight is nominal so could just sit on the perimeter trim i.e. require no metal wire or any other support.

Maybe a shower panel cut down to size?. 60 quid though ffs!

I've got to do tons of suspended ceiling stuff ( tiles 60 x 60 cm ). I decided to start 'easy' with my tiny WC. It's approx area is 80 x 80 cm. I thought that I could get an oversized tile and simply cut it to fit that. I now see there is generally either 60x60 or 1200x60 Really don't want to do a suspended system in such a tiny room just for the sake of 1.5 tiles. Was about to start the perimeter trim and then realised my issue. Googled - can't find ANY tile that I can cut down to suit. Any other suggestions?. Don't want a plasterer in as he won't turn up for years/months - so was thinking of a simple do-able solution; for a neat simple ceiling.

Got an xmas card for you

Photo wouldnt upload ffs

Thought of @Onoff wiping his behind with me watching

Are you my Jenny from the block ? If you are I’m going to (expletive deleted) you

Lazy ! 🤣🤣🤣👍

Imho nope - floaty float might ‘jam ‘ or as i experienced the actual ball/switch inside the float decides it might stick . It’s not the brand I’m against it’s the ‘float’ method . Obviously you could get it . But get 2 and make sure there is zero chance of either float in motion buggering the other .

When my build was just a concrete hole in the ground ( I’d already run out of money 🤣 ) I decided to try different pumps . The problems I experienced with different pumps were Those loose cabled floats can indeed tangle or jam against the side . Had one of loose floats not jam - water level had raised it but not triggering the pump . Gave the ‘float’ a tap and it started working ! . So the ball / micro switch must of jammed . I wasn’t impressed Pumps with a float in a chamber on the side . Again like a ping pong ball that just rises or falls . Bit of sand / crap in the water it jammed . So I wanted a pump with a float that can move only vertically - but is free ; not contained . Also a float that cannot be caught on the sides . Went through about 6 different pumps before I came to this conclusion ( got my money back on all of them after arguing “ not fit for purpose “ ). Decided to look at USA ; they have more basements etc. than us . Every video had a Zoellar in it ( it’s made in the US so perhaps that’s why ) . Anyway , it’s cast iron . Hit SWMBO with it , it will kill her - so added benefits . Regarding your hole being too small ( oo’er ) you could always break it wider ?

Got a link to that pump ??

Not sure what you mean here ? You do not want those loose floats ; on a cable that bounce around !! Tried many pumps - float sticking / jamming was a common issue . Zoellar. Is your friend !

Many solutions to this ; but what I do … homeseer HA - largely agnostic to type of devices e.g z wave , x 10 🤣 , zingbee etc I have a z wave socket on that pump . I can measure its wattage use . So my ‘last hope’ pump should never be on . If that plug wattage goes above zero pump must be on - I then send an email or whatever .

Nah it's not a bodge - it's an after thought. Look at my photo. I always intended to box the pipes in. Bit of timber, tile backerboard and a few tiles - its disappeared ( or will when I finish it ). Personally I can't see the 32mm pipe being an issue. Restricts flow for sure - but so what?. It's in your ground depression ( cast concrete ); fills up then empties. It's not going to attract so much water that your pump outlet of 32mm can't cope.

Very nice ! I love quality fittings . Kitchen granite / quartz worktop ?

F me - it’s hissing down here . I’m watching my rainwater pump ( from inside the build ) just for peace of mind !!!

I have 32mm mdpe for my 2 rain water pumps - no issues . My sump ( macerator waste and kitchen ) does indeed have 2” pipe outlets . Regarding your current embedded 32mm pipe . Can you not put a new pipe externally in your sunken garden ( box it in afterwards ) and then access the drain ( access chamber nearby ?? ) . Like I did …
