Not necessarily. Has it gone up in value or down? Not forgetting you've pinched half the garden

Yeh tell me about it I tried to fit hers on my own had to get a hand. They're a lot more than standard wall extractors aren't they. Is there any benefit or all aesthetic? If I hear one more of you lot of a certain age tell us how high interest rates were and how hard it was zzzzz!

What's your flush overhead extractor cost @nod? Built a bulkhead for a woman before she realised how expensive they can be!

Probably easier to do way no.2 anyway. Not sure how it will effect the usability/feng shui?

I might go. Is it worth it or just a jolly

Would the capital gain be calculated on what you paid or the rise in value since you moved out? I would guess in this case if op has split the garden then perhaps there is not such a big gain regardless?

I agree is worth it however paid more like 130 cu. Did away with need for pump we pulled it 8m with rakes easily

Think you're good to go. Just double check the time period. At worst the new bungalow could always sit "empty" while you still live in old house while it sells

Just seen bull float mentioned we have only ever raked then dabble barred

Used it quite a few times now. Brilliant stuff does self level to an extent but needs skilled bloke to get spot on. Never had to latex a floor done with it yet. Tarmac have binned all their reps round here. I've got a 9m3 pour next week using a competitors product. Paying an ex tarmac rep 35 per cu to lay with me.

God help us

I tried to get quotes without zoning. These people are off their heads if they think you could have any noticeable temperature difference in a well insulated house. For some reason they don't seem to agree with this school of thought. I think the expanding tape will be good for around pipes, but you could pick up a small roll from a merchant yourself.

OP just as an aside if you check your planning a lot of the time it will be worded such that- IF gates are installed. Do you actually want the gates? Not seen many conditions insisting on gates. It's more to do with the setback.

Neat boarding

I always water test. Bit of a luddite but you know what you know. Just remember to put some longer stubs on when doing as your supposed to create 1m of head. I don't think I've ever had an all plastic system lose any water yet. Pretty much foolproof. Even those flex seal couplers are pretty much 100%

Cant tell if joke or...

Id have thought 100mm gravel be fine but by the sounds of it you want your surface water drains deeper to mitigate any protection on top of these

Bit strong surely. Don't we all have enough to do? With respect @JSHarris you might have found it easy to prepare all the technical details and sap but for us mortals it's harder than you make it seem! I prefer to send the technicians drawings back to him constantly for revisions. Think I've made it to revision G before now!

It's the rulers which allowed for metal expansion/contraction which my beef is with!

Your place is a tardis isn't it

@Roz how has this progressed? Any pressure tests since installation. As an aside, how come dpm detailing is so finicky then you can go and bang ufh staples in?

Might help if you give location I know it can be done remotely but still

Pleasant welcome @nod?! Hi @Laith J were not all that blunt. Even some Welsh here!

I set out some joinery in a workshop once with a pattern making rule. It was only on something small as the rule was only around 300mm. What a cock up that was. Old boy was a pattern maker in his day, why he bought that rule into a bespoke joinery workshop ill never know.

They do try and bully you into adding water nearly had an argument on last job. Was being pumped as well. I'm sure less reputable firms do it because they know their mix probably isn't up to scratch anyway, so they want you to add water so you sign the disclaimer.
