Hi I have 2 runs of council pavers (the heavy **** ) sitting on a type 1 base with gravel infill, providing a driveway to my Garage. The Garage sits on a large slab, and just in front of that slab is an additional slab that the Garage manufacturers made us add before construction. This was...

Thanks All .. Tried again today using the advice from ajstoneservices , i went slower and zig-zagged . I also used a pva water solution and it worked like a charm. Thanks Woody , i was using to fill a gap , albeit a fairly shallow one The gun definitely makes things easier and cleaner .. a...

Cheers will give it a go

Cheers for the quick response ajstoneservices ... possibly i guess. but only doing a thin bead and moving down the wall... i guess the same as if you was applying caulking or glue.. going to try again tomorrow.. might apply some pva first as that usually helps with getting other stuff to stick.

Hi All I have a bit of foam applying to do . I bought a decent gun on ebay, and wish i had done that years ago as it certainly makes things easier... However i am having trouble getting the foam to stick to concrete walls , some bits are fine but half of it just seems to slip off . I have...

Hi , I have a precast garage with a fibre cement roof, which suffers from the usual condensation issues. I have been working this year on sealing , insulating and boarding the walls, but now need to look at the roof. Height it restricted so do not want to do what i have done with another garage...

Thanks for the replies. Yes Brigadier thats what i was thinking ,i only did one spare panel , so the rest i will leave as is. Cheers

Hi I have fibre cement roof sheets, from a 5yr old precast garage I have bought and have customised into a new garage. Before i refit it i was considering cleaning up the roof sheets. I have jet washed one as a trial , and it has cleaned up really good and looks like new. but I am...

They are not that bad Sittingbull, to be honest, I have only had a 50p coin size hole , which i filled with no further problems. but coupled with the condensation, and the fact that I am also going to redo the interior walling and make it into a proper room , it just seemed to make sense to do...

Yes thanks Xenon , thats a good point. not actually looked at any before , so not sure what its "spongeability" ( i am claiming that word ) is like.

Hi , I have a pre-cast concrete garage (c) 18ft x 20ft. It is about 13 years old and the cement fibre roof panels are beginning to deteriorate. Additionally these roof panels cause condensation. So I have decided to replace them. It might be a bit wacky, but I was considering...

Thanks , yes i think i am heading towards that idea.

Hi i have a double precast garage, the standard bolt together type with metal beams holding up corrugated roofing ( the cement type that looks like abestos but isnt.) Would anyone have any idea what kind of weight it can take ? I am just wondering if i could put some large planters on the...

About a year ago I started a light kitchen renovation, which became a full floorboard up rebuild.... My partywall had kitchen cabinets on the floor and wall, with ceramic tiling in the middle. This was removed, and as i was no longer having tiles, i decided to re-plaster the wall. I...
