Is a letting agent a trade ? Just wondering .....

Thanks . So is there so magic line at which tenant turn over becomes ‘trade ‘ . I can turn over 4/5 tenants a month - is that ‘trade ‘ ??? . Appreciate it’s all rather vague and grey . What concerns me more is when is a property an ‘investment’ And when is it a ‘living’ i.e a job ( dare I say it a trade ) .

I hear you !

I go the neighbors garden ...

Couldn’t agree more !!

Here’s what I used https://www.screwfix.com/p/ced-galvanised-all-round-band-12mm-x-10m/18298

I had this concern also . My sparky did conclude that if a timber frame is burning then you shouldn’t be worrying about cabling but need to get out . So I have just metal ties screwed to the timber supporting cables . He was happy with that .

In theory you should be ok . But who knows ; guess we wait until June and find out !

Can you explain how 'income' from property is devised ? i.e. being a 'landlord' ( which anyone can be simply from renting out a property' and being a self employed landlord ?) I know HMRC treat these differently one as an investment ( so no help where SE or not) and one as a trade/business . What 'defines' the difference?. Obviously if you work full time and have 1 property let through an agent that looks clearly like an investment.

Need to check what item c is

Yeah I have watched that . Can’t tell if he has that other slidy bit in the rail - I’ve removed mine anyway for now !

I just don’t get how the anti slam works . I don’t see how the plastic white clip part ‘catches’ anything to cause it to work .

Ok . Trying to lift a 45kg door onto these bolts ( that slide ) ain’t going to work !

There ! Took slidy rail out ( on the left ) this was in the rail on the right so naturally assumed that was correct ; as it was supplied like that . But as I have seen Eclisse send more stuff and variations of instructions because they presumably don’t know what you need . I actually was sent 3 anti slam kits ( 2 of the ‘doubles ‘ ) . Countless frame instructions synthesis line ,vitro ,bias . Dead helpful !

Quite possibly ! Also the sliding vertical track confuses me . You’ve got the sliding bits . But there’s another track in there that moves - don’t understand that at all . Also have the ‘double side ‘ anti slam . It shows a single door ( not double ) so assumed anti slam on opening and closing ... I’ve gone with the Rallenty one for now .But the sliding metal has a ‘bit’ that stops the runner .... Better photo of slidy rail inside rail . Also the bump that stops everything !

Or they send me 2 anti slam kits - so I have no idea which to use ( or how exactly it works ) - both different lengths f ing Eclisse - hate them . Even their technical support didn’t seem to know - of course they are all in self isolation now ffs !

Like this . On the left shows an ‘end’ stop type thing in both pictures . Then beneath it shows the end clip crossed out . So need end clip don’t need end clip ? Perhaps it’s me ( probably) or perhaps it’s just confusing . Trial and errors going to be a dog as door weighs 45kg

Reluctantly back at this . The multiple sets of instructions and complete confusion is a nightmare. Understanding this is more difficult than building the f ing house . Doors beautiful though ...

Hmmm yes . I was taking short route method - but take your point . Still can’t find 112.5 soil weld - I must be looking wrong intend to add support later anyway

I’m a pro now !!!

https://www.plastics-express.co.uk/soil-vent-systems/solvent-weld-soil-system/solvent-weld-soil?product_id=902 Not clear to me how it adjusts . Must have flexible type pipe inside ?!? ?

I did guess flexi was bad !!! ? In 110mm soil weld I can find 90 , 135 but no 11/22 socket thingy .

So a flexible 110mm solvent weld pipe ?!?! https://www.ondemandsupplies.co.uk/magicflex-flexible-soil-pipe-connector-4/

Hmmmm - next issue . I assume there’s some trick here but google doesn’t yield it . How do I line these up ?? Rubix cube seems easier !!

Ok - but either arrangement is ok ? . I assumed for an AAV it didn’t matter as much as it’s airflow rather than liquid .
