  1. No - it’s more likely my fault for piss poor explanation. Enlighten me about fibre glass angle though !
  2. Yes . But I’m a gambler . Think I’ll win this round …
  3. How many skylights have you got in yours ?
  4. I think that’s what I said ( badly ) 1 post back . Might solve the issue for skylights . Stairwell and different ceiling heights are other issues
  5. Actually . Wouldn't it be better/easier to fix some straight 'L' angled steel from the top of the recess straight down vertically? i.e. say a length per corner? Have to be careful with thickness though as got to aerogel/board/skim. If this is a sensible idea - then what steel for this??? ( too much thinking today as it's Friday )
  6. So what's the best way to build this using metal stud? I've just got a bad feeling it's going to look pap ......
  7. Still think you'll find the fusion reactor makes no noise.
  8. Don't be so Goofy
  9. This just the metal stud I use for walling ? Was going to use aerogel for insulating
  10. Little with lots of useless attachments?
  11. My original SAP is futile anyway . Has a pellet boiler in it ?
  12. And of course you NEED this forum !
  13. There’s an awful lot you can do when you have none of the above ?
  14. With zero knowledge and zero skill I have almost single handily built an entire mainly underground house . So that tells you everything. You can do it all . I estimate in Labour savings ; I’ve saved maybe 500k ( if I had to employ to build today ) . Taken 7 years - not finished it … You have money then get it built . You have time and tenacity- then you build it . You have no money and no time , you sell the plot .
  15. Too big for me. Would hurt my back. The other 3 all at once - be ok though.
  16. And some glazing yes?. Perhaps I can watch your pair grow also?
  17. What are you *really* ? F me - to get an F !!
  18. What's a builders band? is it like LittleMix? ( I love them, though not the fat one )
  19. But ; of course I can't complain as my RHI payment will be more. But it shows what a mess of dis-functional nonsense it is. I'm kind of happy getting a 'D' and kind of annoyed - if you know what I mean.
  20. I intend to keep them; even with suspend ceiling going in. Took me many years to grow those babies.
  21. I needed an EPC for my MCS installed air source heat pump. As we all know the worse the rating the better my payment - which quite frankly is ridiculous . Anyway he rated my new build as D. Reasons for 'down grading it ' were ... he didn't acknowledge ( or understand maybe ) the MVHR, Tesla battery not a valid point , PV no mention. More interesting ... because no obvious room thermostats rates it 2/5 ( no understanding of HA ) Hot water also only gets 2/5 To give some context. All my rentals are 1930 terraced houses with double glazing ( my build has triple ) and a gas boiler - yet they are all 'D' So 'efficiency ' wise on paper my new build is no better than them. Perhaps he did it to increase my RHI . I did ask him to down grade it before he began with his response being " I can only do what I see". So , it's a complete mockery. In real terms I am probably a 'B' - the system is a joke
  22. Like these ; that I already have .
  23. Yes - this sounds like a good approach
  24. No , no , no . If you could see what I can see you’d understand. I could put an access panel every 1m I suppose .
  25. Ffs ! Rubbish game anyway ! You win Zoots heating system
