The mix isn't wet. It's more like a kerb mix. Set your fall up with conc bed then put pipe on the fill around and on top

Could do with being similarly priced here might be a bit more sustainable then

Property is cheap there isn't it. That's like half the cost of Midlands

Furniture is a massive variable too. Forget that unless it's built in

Another vote for testing it at your end now if it takes you a day and earnsyou 2 grand it's a good day. What's the difference in cost between 32 and 25 connection?

@Declan52 you got aircrete?

How often is rain this heavy up there. Doesn't look a common occurrence to me. Low tech water butt below gutter on days like this!

What score did you get then @nod I thought conc weren't any less air permeable than thermals

Looks like aircrete can be a bit of a headache where large is concerned. With his is mind whats the best lightweight block 3.6n option to receive either parge coat or wet plaster finish?

Building regs wouldn't refuse you permission as such. Planning may be a different matter. Do you have alternative off road parking?

Totally agree

Developers don't plaster walls because it's more expensive!

What about normal house PIR style ones @PeterW do these get accidentally tripped?

Any one put a sensor in their garage? I'm thinking of pulling some cable through so sparks can add a new sensor in there. Possibly have it programmed to a different circuit so can be set at night? With the temperature differences and draughts in a garage does this cause false alarms or don't these detectors work like that?

never liked those hangers prefer a saw slit and sit normal ones in, don't have to do the whole birds mouth

My door sits around 10mm higher than slab and around 20mm of slab is exposed. In driven rain the first couple of hundred mm gets damp but generally stays dry because door is fitted behind 9" brickwork

expansion of slab. Your edging blocks will be haunched with concrete below gravel level. Mine is flush with edging blocks at top, probably 30mm higher than the block paving outside, then this ramp goes down over a meter or so to probably 150mm below ffl

If you ever fit rubber threshold under door it would span this also

Thats what I did with foam strip in between for expansion

Sorry missed that thread last week

Wouldn't a wider steel help eliminate the problem?

Could someone please quantify in laymans terms the real world difference of a wall u value between .18 and .2 for me? Single storey dwelling with around 90m2 of walls exc apertures. It's the difference of 25mm on chosen wall make up and I think the gain of 25mm would be better.

What i am saying is one run is inbetween two fixed points. Its obviously harder to fit than a kitchen with 2 free edges. Like I say if the dims are tight you may have to rip some units narrower. For a joiner it's probably a 3/10 difficulty if I have to give it a number?!

Depends how accurate dims are. Could well be ripping some off back of all l/h units

Id leave tiler to prime it. Not your fault if fails then
