Timber supply issues due to brexit
Pocster replied to Pocster's topic in General Self Build & DIY Discussion
I’m also hoping the Mars probe landing today can bring some timber back . Probably requires less paperwork than the ‘frictionless’ boarder we have . Might be quicker also ! -
Timber supply issues due to brexit
Pocster replied to Pocster's topic in General Self Build & DIY Discussion
Oh dear ! I guessed it wasn’t just me but national . At least my walk on glazing will increase 10 fold in value as demand exceeds supply . -
Just spoke to my BM . No CLS timer and no idea when they’ll get some . Luckily before brexit they ordered many tons of the ‘round’ edged stuff - so went with that . If you’re going to need timber - best to get your order in .

First almost whole sheet up . Will add noggins to ends . Cut it to short ! Typical , I always think things are longer than they actually are !!

Nope. I let all the mistakes / changes /mess up's go. Then a few days ago I tried to open one of the small sliding doors. It's jammed solid. Nothing I can do to open it. I've sent a nice email as you can imagine. At the time I never though anything of the 12 month warranty - but that's really really crap i.e. they are out of the warranty period. Current quote from IQGlass is 390+vat to look at it and "maybe" fix it on site. All the little things I let go because the guy I was dealing with ( better not name him ) f everything up - he has since left the company.

Apologies to admin. If you wish to delete I understand. AVOID IQGLASS

BM said 12.5 . It’s on-site so using it ? For reference the water resistant pb on bathroom / ensuite ceiling is also 12.5

Pb for ceiling is 12.5mm Collated screws 45mm Will support all ends !
-
PT guys arrived . Oh well work will have to wait . After that it will be lunch time
-
Yeah that’s what I thought . I’ll use more noggins and put the ceiling pb up first . Then at least the sloped pb will offer some support at the joint ( ceiling to slope ) . Probably over thinking it as it avoids doing the work ?

I’m putting in noggins ready for the plasterboard ceiling . What should I do where sloped plasterboard meets horizontal ceiling ? A noggin at the top ( and bottom ) for the slope . Another noggin at the top for the ceiling ? . Just seems wasteful and awkward - or is it simply the way ?
