I have an expandastore they can be put up and taken down by a few guys. Can be handballed around when in pieces. Don't see how it solves your problem entirely though.

More jobs for the boys. Bureaucracy gone mad.

Every time I've had it done its been less than 500 quid. The cheapest service by far. I think it is subsidised somehow because I can't see them doing the job for that.

I did wonder as you said your windows were made locally. Why could they 3g the windows but not the door?

Why's this?

Was there a bit of controversy with strength and cement content with these ready mixed mortars? Glad to hear its holding up ok. You cant trust these young brickie labourers now I see them squirting the plastersiser in like its water.

What make model?

You're the science boffin whats the theory on the copper?

I'd be tempted to try to copper on a newbuild. It costs next to nothing while you're up there on the scaff. Id guess a window cleaner would want atleast 50 quid to clean them especially full 2 storey. That's a chunk out of your return each year

I just thought for the sake of a few blobs of silicone or something and a coil of copper wire when installing. Would it be effective or is that a myth?

This one as well maybe more SSW but you can see in full sun. Maybe older panels and protective coating wears off?

SE I would say

Seen some panels with moss on today walking around. What's the way to keep this off? Regular cleaning or can you just stick a length of copper wire to the house ridge or at top of panels?

I meant the mist coat super diluted. There must be a way to make it stick to another paint else they are basically saying you need a fresh plastered wall if your going to use this paint ie not suitable for existing walls without re skim.
