  1. Why can't u mix 2 lots at once
  2. They estimate 90 pcm whereas I gov octopus 55 and just recently had 600 back in credit how do I get the kwh figures?
  3. It's unlimited referrals with octopus. Jeremy I might use your link and switch. I'm pretty sure the price difference in energy will not swallow the referral up in a hurry. I plan to move soon anyway
  4. Is 2 blokes at slightly less than a week quicker than traditional slating?! What's the cost for the system
  5. @ProDave stop trying to Nick my commission!
  6. You think that your going to get 22m2 of panels fitted cheaper than the equivalent amount of roofing. With all the fiddly flashing?!
  7. Looks great. So far along before the scaffold comes down.when did you start?
  8. 50 quid a lining what's a whitewood one now 15? You could veneer your own I've done it before. However longevity would worry me with veneer
  9. I think the tide is turning @recoveringacademic University degrees losing a lot of credibility in my eyes. Young tradesman out there earning a grand a week with no debt and some students saddled with debt working in a supermarket as jobs market is saturated with degrees. Obviously the two extreme sides of coin but not heard many trades moaning lately it's rich pickings at present.
  10. Got a similar height at one side of my eaves. 1200mm. Works well for a desk then also have bath along this wall as you propose. Seems to work fine but where you position your beds will be important and think about wardrobes
  11. Fwiw I had a similar situation with planners and they let me use a non material amendment to explain walls were growing but internal volume remaining the same
  12. I'd still let floor designer specify ledger board and fixing schedule. Just tell them how you want it and let them do the math
  13. Thanks too Jeremy. Still scrambled however. Do sunamp do a product to melt the ice on my windscreen or does it stop working when windscreen is 52% de iced
  14. Might be easier to spec joists with 2" longer top chord and use that detail. Possibly cheaper too
  15. Bolt ledger plate onto wall. Nail Joist hangers onto plate
  16. I understand so little of this debate. It's almost a different language. Pcm 32 vs 58. My brain is scrambled
  17. That's passable tbf! For me it's either that or redwood and painted. Anything with a thin veneer such as ply is asking for trouble in such a high traffic location
  18. Looks good what kind of money per m2? Does this replace need for parge coating?
  19. glues/nails are what squeak. Having said that if you're motoring along they help to keep things in check. I usually pop a nail in each end on first run and pull a string line between nails. Get first row to line up with the line, glue, nail bang away you go
  20. Might be best to go 400 centres in your case. At least if you make a mistake setting out studs your not wasting too much of a board. Ie using just over 800 no instead of just over 600mm.
  21. Cheers both
  22. Not if it's going cheap. But has that person made the same mistake?
  23. Quick question if the boffins on here wouldn't mind. Is there any reason why I can't use kingspan tr27 under a floor in a renovation? Got one room to renew slab in and want to insulate. It's for flat roofs but what's the difference once it's under concrete? Not suitable for underground? https://www.kingspan.com/gb/en-gb/products/insulation/insulation-boards/therma/thermaroof-tr27-lpc-fm
  24. Does anyone remember the house that John built or was it rebuilt. Years ago on discovery
  25. Preventing a developer muscling in only to build a house on said plot! As said above take a breath and see what your options are on the financial side
