  1. Or use Doncaster EV Ultra that has CAT5e inside https://www.yesss.co.uk/ev-ultra-cat5e-cable-4mm2-3-core-data-pvc-steel-wire-armour-black-0 They do a 6mm2 and a 10mm2 version.
  2. Did you find anywhere?
  3. He is looking to measure pressure not air pressure.
  4. If you need any advice on VAT reclaim speak to Andrew at VAT431.co.uk

    Bull floats

    Have you thought about using self levelling concrete, CEMEX have Evolutuon.
  6. Yes, use normal glass then get it toughen.
  7. A visit to the National Self Build and Renovation Centre (NSRBC) in Swindon is a good place to start.
  8. Yes, helical piles are a solution. They are often used to underpin, but you do need SE advice.
  9. Yes, I used CEMEX Evolution self leaving concrete on a project, worked very well.
  10. I prefer something home grown raspberry pi, pi pico etc
  11. Copper Sulphate will damage zinc, so definitely a no no from me. There are Lichen Removal Agrents available as it’s a known problem.
  12. You are spot on. All bolts need a torque setting plus additional notes on washers, thread locks, etc to ovoid over engineering and costs.
  13. Jeremy, who used to be on this group, had a simplified version. https://forum.buildhub.org.uk/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=76599&key=beb16589ffeb7656a272e8a689af6cac
  14. You will get a small voltage drop, but nothing to be worried about. Max load for both is/might be more of an issue.
  15. I have just pointed "notebooklm" to BH and it works OK, but it gives more of a summary, but with links to the sources.
  16. Costing a build per sq metre is not a good way to build or manage. There are so many variables and what do you include. Estate agents don’t use it.
  17. A camera is a better solution and I used a Wireless Logic circle.
  18. That's not true at all. Having a uniform temperature in every room is the best way to have a comfortable home. And UFH (with a slab floor) and MVHR is the best, and IMHO, the only way to achieve this.
  19. ICF with a SIP roof is a common pair.
  20. you’re over thinking and over engineering the problem. You want a uniform temperature everywhere. Do you have MVHR?
  21. There is absolutely no need to have a gas hob or oven in 2024. The fumes alone will reduce your life expectancy.
  22. Once you have cooked on induction you won’t go back. The control ability is excellent and a lot better than gas. It’s a lot easier to clean.
  23. Your architect will have professional indemnity insurance.
  24. I would and have used solid Foamed Glass.
