Ah thought this was in the ground! maybe a sketch of what you are thinking will help everybody.

Manhole- make it easy to rod if there is a problem, make inspection of flows easier..

I would take 1 all the way to the ground connection point, on the other elevation with 3 tapping in as it goes.

Have you considered a joiner on-site making the kit?

They are probably more interested in how many bedrooms you have and how many people live in the house

I know but who cares? likewise who cares about customer care when you just email them and then cancel direct debit

Electrical metal boxes come in 25,35 and 47mm deep. personally I think 25mm are too shallow and if you have flat plate accessories they won’t work. 35mm boxes are ideal for everything electrical apart from cooker, shower switches as the cable is thicker and 47mm. Gives more room to terminate. data cabling needs some room to terminate with the bending radius to be considered cat 6 cables need 47mm boxes. ( but 35mm batten plus 12.5 plasterboard will let a 47mm box be fitted ) you get plastic fast fix boxes but .......

I was looking the other week as I’m due to change and neon reef were 12.something all units and I have a North East Fife postcode. they only do electricity but I’m fine with that and will look for gas elsewhere. Appreciate you don’t have gas.

My walls are made up with 100x47mm because my joiner and I don’t like thinner walls, happy to pay for the extra timber as the walls are more sturdy, and allow for services running in partition without taking too much meat out of the timber. I think if you were to build something out of 50mm it would need sheeted with OSB or similar to give some stability

I know, I just like putting one shot down and then everyone starts complaining about the smell of rotten eggs

I know, he said the sink was running slow too?

I think window cills need an apron under the cill, I think it finishes it off

What about an application of one shot?

Sorry buddy can’t advise if 1 or 2 are needed, I have a SE and architect that I use on all my projects, and follow their site specific advise, my concern was regarding the UFH pipes as laying sheets isn’t a delicate operation.

All good, was just the angle in the first picture, as Dave says hopefully a new plug and fuse will sort it out

Could you post a picture of the plug from a different angle to see the pins please. from the angle don’t see the insulated section?

Or just buy some off the shelf ‘chairs,stools’ and save the time?

Good quality underlay and carpets will also absorb a lot of noise, along with all the measures above. I’m in an end terraced Victorian property, and spend a lot of time in the loft building walls, sealing gaps etc, same in adjoining small bedroom when I insulated, sealing holes etc. Used loads of foam,tape and silicone but it’s definitely worth it. for me it’s a room by room project and I will never reach perfection as too many period features that I don’t want to remove,damage, cover up so a compromise for me.

I would be concerned that the second layer of mesh during installation would damage the pipework?

I always want the trade to purchase materials as there is no arguing about the quality, delays with delivery etc let them store, manage delivery. there may be client specific items, but I suppose everybody is different, appreciate the VAT thing but that’s not my world.

Gilbows are the traditional tool, I.e picture 1. Not a cheap option if they are the brand name Irwin Gilbow. The others stop you pinching your fingers on a regular basis! likewise dewalt being a recognised brand name, with cheap copies available too.

Location in UK? specification of Slate? ready for felt and batten meaning that’s to be priced for too? Bungalow, 2 storey, town house? personally if I was a slater, I wouldn’t be interested, people buying materials not knowing what they are doing and expect trades to deliver a silk purse.

Mine were meranti, routed to make it out of one piece.
