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.

Are heat pump warranties 10 years or more like a boiler? Genuine question I've never looked in to them

What about if super diluted? Still same?
