Your local decorator centre trade paint will be the best bet. Dulux, crown or Johnson, or independent like Brewers etc but you need a proper trade account to get a good price. Crown own Farrow and Ball so might be a good choice if you want a lot of their colours as they have the recipe on computer so can match it exactly

Also i thickened the stud wall, partly for sound deadening and partly to get an exact fit for the 1700 shower tray

I didn't bother with a premoulded tray. Just moisture resistant plasterboard, tanking kit and then tiles and grout. Although I did use epoxy grout as I can't be doing with dirty grout

Usually double rafters around a velux, but depends on size of velux. Has a roof truss company supplied this? If not worth getting a quote from them

Visually it looks better and you don't want to spend time and money making an air tight insulated house then put loads of holes for pipes in it

To fit ufh pipes you definitely don't need the house to be watertight

Use a screw from an easier switch/socket until you can replace it e.g. single light switch

I looked at a few online calculators and 16mm² kept coming up. I unearthed the incoming mains and it looks like 16mm² swa. At 2pm on a Saturday most electrical wholesalers are closed, except one which had 19m 16mm² 4 core SWA, so that was just long enough and has gone in!

If it was a fairly straight line I would put a duct with a rope in, but I don't want to risk it with the route the cable will go

Its 50ft from the house incoming mains to the proposed garage

Our existing 3 phase electric layout is as shown in the attached diagram. I am planning to demolish the existing garage and build a new one elsewhere on the plot and am digging a trench for water and electric. I'm trying to decide what size of armoured cable to run. I don't need 3 phase (for any tools etc), but I am wondering about future ev chargers Mains Supply Design.pdf

Advice Needed - Bonnet Hip Tiles
bassanclan replied to ProblematicPanda15's topic in Roofing, Tiling & Slating
