  1. I guess next is to foam isolate from the existing foam down towards this front bit and make another dam
  2. So I flooded this bit . Right at the front ; all water will run this way , nothing …..
  3. Hmmmm . 30 mins . I top it up as it drops . But my perimeter probably isn’t 100% waterproof . Inside is damp from previous rain - but no droplets of water …. 🫤
  4. Friday and SWMBO is out . So placed speakers properly and did calibration . All good . I have a slight permanent hearing issue caused by illness a year ago and dialogue in movies can be hard . So I boosted the centre and decided to bump the sub . Found a nice noisy scene in rebel moon . Surprised I didn’t shatter the windows ! Turned the sub down promptly! The spatial noises ( even without ceiling atmos ) are far more pronounced without being over bearing . I’m sure there’s further adjustments I can make - for now this will do !
  5. Dry day . So built my perimeter . leave it a few hours then will test the outside edge to check water tight . If so will fill that little pond of mine .
  6. I’m not going to ask how you found that …
  7. Yeah - unlikely to be 7.1 ! . There’s usually some good stuff like that on YouTube anyway I.e hdr , atmos , Dolby vision etc . Used them to test my projector . In a darkened room the image is incredible . If only you stopped fecking about in the garden and got on with your cinema room ! - it’s far more important!!
  8. I shall use that as a test . Bit of a mess at the moment - speakers in rough positions . Not calibrated yet . Furniture in the bloody way . You know what it’s like . Just wanted to get the basics going so I can then think “ it was worth it “
  9. lol ! No atmos yet - still waiting on those to arrive . But just as is 7.1 it blows away my Samsung soundbar as expected ! Apart from better sound placement ; it’s the dialogue that sometimes I have to ‘strain’ to hear . Not now . SWMBO out so tried rebel moon ( never watched it ) but it’s got lots of explosions , laser shots etc with dialogue in it . So big typical cinema sound . (expletive deleted)ing awesome ( films crap , but I don’t care ) audio . Just aswell I’m detached and under ground ; neighbours be shitting by now 😊
  10. Maybe . But assuming it’s those seams just a load of ct1 in there should do it yeah bro ?
  11. Maybe 5 yrs . Don’t know . Less than 10 though 😊
  12. 4 yrs ish . I was told the felt isn’t the waterproof layer … I suspect those gaps in the felt have always been there as it’s always leaked ! SBS-modified bitumen - self healing ; the felt as I was told was not needed but added to ‘physical ‘ damage to protect the underlying layer . I guess there’s a poor joint around this gate post .
  13. The latest suspect ; these seams . Too wet inside to retest . Tomorrow is rain and storms so no good either . Have expanding foam so will build a little perimeter barrier around this area then fill it up .
  14. Episode 19 - “ that muvver fecker “ Story recap : After witnessing extreme violence and scenes of a sexual nature Pocster decides to take matters into his own hands . The mistress threatens to announce their relationship to the world - causing tension . Pocster concludes the only way is forwards towards his inevitable fate …. Rotten tomatoes rating : 99% Average journalist rating : 2% Isolated further - and made it leak … That gate post asphalt needs a closer look once I get the Ali decking supports up
  15. So kind , so thoughtful 😊
  16. More pages , more content , more fun . Like a Netflix series with too many episodes only to get to a drab finale . Suspense and wonder are the key !
  17. (expletive deleted)ing forum
  18. My best mate chatgpt says it’s ok to use to form a temporary holding perimeter. Any humans agree ??
  19. Watched some flat roof leak finding videos . What I REALLY want is a method to make anywhere on the roof a water tight container around areas to isolate it . For example if I took all the decking up around the skylight and put a 100% water holding barrier around it - that would be magic . But how ? . Can I use expanding foam on asphalt to build a retaining barrier ??? 🤔
  20. Took up more decking . Looks like the surface water does run round to that skylight . But it can’t be flooding around it . Also of course the leaks coming in under the roof not over the upstand . But it’s another possibility ( perhaps roof asphalt damage during installation of glazing ? ) .
  21. Ouch !
  22. So it’s something around this corner . Took up the decking . Nothing obvious . Those overlapping flashings filled with ct1 look fine . Next test once it’s dried up and leaking stopped to flood this corner but not up or over the flashing - just the actual roof . Not sure what else to try .
  23. Still leaks 🫤
