    large shed / play house, don't want wooden floor?????

    I'll have to measure it more precisely and see how many sq metres, but I think it will all be fine. It isn't going to be intrusive and my left neighbour already has a huge shed alongside the fence! Once the weather permits I'l get cracking with the bricks first. Am planning to build it as an...

    large shed / play house, don't want wooden floor?????

    Ah, I know what that is kind of, well I do when you refer to a house. So Now it's going to be brick, then a membrane, ie DPC, then wood on top. Secure the wood to concrete base so the shed doesn't ever move and Bobs my uncle? :lol:

    large shed / play house, don't want wooden floor?????

    Thanks OLD :D Stupid question, but is there a particular brick that would be better then for fixing to? And I guess anchoring right through the brick to the base in a few strategic places would be good! For the rest would masonary nails suit? Thanks again!

    large shed / play house, don't want wooden floor?????

    Ahh, I have concreted right to the edge of existing fencing, so cant 'shed' the water over the edge of it....... :cry: Maybe that was my first mistake already! Plus I dug down so the base is even with gravel in front of it, although the gravel has excellent drainage, so shedding water in...

    large shed / play house, don't want wooden floor?????

    Hi all, hope you can shed some light before I begin, as this question begins the rest of the project! I am going to build a T&G large (around 20x9ft) shed come playroom. I have already laid the base in concrete. I want to build up the thing and then tile the floor on the inside, much like...

    I broke my heating

    Cheers gas4u. I was thinking of following the pipe from small heating tank down until it joins main pipework and undoing it to see if the tank is blocked. But now you said about cutting pipe I think it must be a soldered connection not compression :cry: Is the T that blocks in the airing...

    I broke my heating

    Yeah cheers :roll: Didn't work though the back fill thing. Pump still dry (behind screw) and the heating still no good. So basically the pipe from my tank in attic runs straight to immersion heater then to pump then to radiators? I will carry on tomorrow night and check water getting from tank...

    I broke my heating

    OK just made sure pump off. It was making shuddering sounds earlier through pipes like water was there then not. Does that screw on front of pump suppose to hold water back? Mine has no water when undone so if should be wet then at least I can check if system has filled after back fill...

    I broke my heating

    Wow, quick reply, thank you! Downstairs + upstairs not working, although downstairs does have water come out if I open bleed screws, upstairs doesn't. The system / house is only 11 years old now, so I think that's quite new? Anyway, my tanks upstairs (attic) are plastic and covered with...
