    Building/Party wall regs for the thickness of a party wall

    Is there a minimum thickness required for a party wall? Iv got a flat where the party wall is just timber frame and plasterboard. Its terrible for noise. I can't seem to find a thickness requirement when the party wall construction is timber frame. Thanks.

    travertine tiles general advice

    Re: pit marks its personal preferance if you fill them or not. Make the customer aware that pit marks can "appear" in time as the stone degrades and crumbles. shouldnt be to much of a issue with mosiac tiles but some could crumble or lose edges.
