Oh - some stuff’s disappeared! Naughty @Onoff !
-
I ordered some of the crystal dehumidifier pots from eBay . Worth a shot . Gut instinct now tells me condensation. ?
-
No . But I have seen that before . Air gets ‘stuck’ almost in a corner . What’s the best eBay type dehumidifier / condensation absorber I can buy her ? ( I’m kind like that ) .
-
Just cavity wall . Never happened before . House has 1 Covid positive tenant - so I can only do a basic look tomorrow. Wondering ( as everyone is in their room ) if condensation from lack of airing the room .
-
Guttering issue ??
-
My tenant just sent me this photo . This wall is to the left of her window . There is a loft room above her with ensuite - so I would assume an issue there . But the specked pattern confuses me - doesn’t seem like a ‘normal ‘ leak ...

Is insulation *outside* studs considered unconventional?
Pocster replied to lineweight's topic in Timber Frame
Yes . Foiled backed stuff . All around the timber frame externally ( with either cladding or a thermolite wall beyond that ) . Then pir in the timber studs . Also in between ceiling joists .Then 50mm pir over all of that and foil taped all joints . You can only insulate once ...... -

I’m no expert ( as others will confirm ) . I put insulation outside my timber frame and also between the internal timber frame . -
Going to lose then !! ??????

No wonder he wants to visit me - we can fight !

Decided to persevere with my home made beading - until I ran out of trim . Got the mitres as tight as I can .

Fibaro switch wiring lack of knowledge!

Bought a small relay . Wired this up and it works properly I.e as I would expect it to work . The software though leaves a lot to be desired - but I can work round those issues . So now I have a video doorbell using no cloud , no subscription and good luck to anyone who wants to hack it ! -
You tried my friend - that counts for something

Did a dummy setup with silver ct1 See how it looks tomorrow Actually might just be easier and look ok if grey grout goes in there ...
-
Decided to do the beading around the bathroom window . Fraction of a mm out shows up on the corner mitres . Will silver ct1 hide this good enough ??
-
SWMBO does cleaning ?? If I found a really small quadrant / curve that would be ok . But because it’s not flat when I get to the opening I’ll have an end showing

-
Yeah . Kind of things I was thinking of . Will get some 10 x 10 L trim and just sit it in there - see what it looks like .
-
Yeah fair enough . But I’m not going to scrape that lot out . Hardly get my hands in there . Still tempted to order 10x10mm L and just stick that along the Mastik joints .
-
It’s a collection of shapes For the edges I’m definitely go over the expensive bead with the corner protector .

What A state

I have a special delivery of this - I think @joe90 would appreciate it ?????????????????????????
-
yes - some eBay rubbish . Though as I said on nice easy access corners ( as Demo’d on the sink corner ) I was more than happy . Must admit - it’s ocd ; which I never had until I started tiling . Agree , once filled with female crap you won’t see the tiles let alone any silicone ?
-
Yeah . I should of just used internal trim to start with .... Really temped to just literally stick ‘L’ trim over it - hides it all
