Right ! i can feel @Nickfromwales breath on my back already ! In the below ground domain we are having a wc . Its quite possible it’s location downstairs has to be moved . It will be under the parking area and on the opposite side to all the drainage ( typically ). As it stands the macerator would have to pump up 2 metres - then ‘around ‘ the stairwell , then horizontal for maybe 8 metres , then possibly vertical again ( less than 1 metre ) !!! Directly below this ‘exit’ point is the below ground kitchen sink ( which of course has a macerator) . I’m assuming the run for the wc is too long and convoluted ( diagram might help ) . So ! Could the wc macerator feed into the kitchen one to ‘eject’ waste ? ???

Skills !

Gave in and ordered it . relatively small groves in each board . Surprised not T&G ! Anyway spent the cash

Hey @Onoff fit one of these ! Dead nice I think !

It will fall off one day for sure !

Not oiled yet

Well ! The lead flashing looks spot on !

What is lot20 ? Electricians thinks maybe pcb duff

Why so bloody expensive!? Got one in a rented property that’s bust ; electrician’s suggested replacement... https://www.heatershop.co.uk/dimplex-xle-150-storage-heater?gclid=Cj0KCQjwj9LkBRDnARIsAGQ-hUfwN5jr78fTy3xlNl-OeLK-1aR9lWVDkPHngQN5nu-YzuXqCCLVeCgaAg-4EALw_wcB So expensive!!! ?????

Ah yes . Some ‘proper’ reviews ?

Still seems to get mixed reviews . Might be ‘user’ error ...

Which model ?

So what’s the next best tile cutter at a considerably lower cost ? The rubi 200 etc . Seem to get mixed reviews

The dye did say 5g to 100 litres. I did 5g to a bucketful of water ? ; then did 2 bucket fulls. It was certainly VERY bright!

Hosed the wall throughly Lane still a bit pink from yesterday! ?

Think we had a bit of rain last night . Track marks look pretty much the same . Not a hint of the red dye . So today’s check is inconclusive. Will hose that outside wall again later

So it’s a question now of waiting for rain . Took photos of the track marks today ( should of taken photos yesterday doh ! ) . Can compare tomorrow...

Well I put red dye along the lane floor right next to my wall . 2 bucket falls . No sign of any red inside yet . Yesterday I mixed some cement and filled any holes in the stone work .

Look for an aggregate recycler . Basically he will dig out the rock ; clean / grind it into chippings . So should work out cheaper . This is what I did .

Oh I avoid the council don’t worry ! Neighbors will keep the council informed!! ?

Maybe just re tarmac the lane ???

Yeah . It causes a few problems though . i have to assume all 3 sides of the slab ‘leak ‘ . 2 of which are on my property. The 3rd though is this lane - owned by no one but caused all kinds of problems during planning . I can’t easily ( or cheaply ) close the lane . But ! I presume I could in theory did a narrow trench against the wall down to the 100mm original slab ....

I THINK I may have found something. Ordered some Dye to prove it. Here's what I think is happening... Today I decided to hose down the outside of the lane wall - underneath was damp and showed water track marks as usual. Someone turned up - so I stopped hosing and spoke to them for 15 minutes. I then went underneath and it was I THINK far more clamy and damp on the ceiling. Whilst all track marks (apart from 1) seem to go to the edges and the water appears to come in above the original slab and in the 'void' i.e. where the insulation is ; got me thinking.... The below ground blocks etc. were all poured as one. But the 100mm slab and 35mm reinforced concrete were done after. What's to stop a hairline crack being between these separate pours? . There's no detail in the architects design for this. But at the edges what stops water getting 'in-between' the layers?

To be honest ( from memory ) i’m Fairly certain that corner has always had that fault and track . Tried to find an old photo but couldn’t . I’m 99% sure the corner ‘leaked’ when just the slab was down . Obviously as I had holes everywhere I didn’t worry about it

Refitted 2 frames with structual silicone . Although external timber in the upstand for peace of mind treated them
