    Insulation dormer roof void

    Thanks, I’ve bought one can of spray foam to see how it goes, the access is really right. If it sucks I’ll revert to PIR. Might try to slot some cavity wall batts in above the void to insulate the wall above as after investigating that seems to be insulated with spider webs only

    Insulation dormer roof void

    I have a 1960s chalet style house with dormers. Behind the front wall of the dormer is a vented space which makes the room very cold. I have accessed the void by cutting through the wall. It’s pretty tight and I’d like to insulate the walls of the room from behind the plasterboard. Could spray...

    Coping stones no DPC

    Or mine! There is insulation, certainly wouldn’t surprise me if condensation were or became an issue however, damp only appears when it rains and did stop when i sealed up the joints with CT1 as a temporary measure. I’ll be getting a builder in to have a look

    Coping stones no DPC

    Thanks . There are weep holes in the wall so I assume there are cavity trays. That being said they didn’t do a DPC which seems amateur AF so worth checking

    Coping stones no DPC

    I’ve recently moved into a house with a recent (5yrs) flat roof extension out the back. The extension has parapet walls topped with coping stones. Not long after we moved in we noticed damp at the right angle with the ceiling and after an inspection of the roof it seems there is either no DPC or...

    Ok, so link wire likely not needed. The grey wire went to the room stat though. Is that ok still?

    Its tricky to see but the Salus us the box in the middle. This is before I changed anything. The wiring for the salus is written on the box. The wires with the blue topped ferules joining terminal block are the ones from the salus. First two are the frost stat, middle three L, N, E and final two...

    Are you sure? The instructions state "Power needs to be put on to terminal 1 either by linking from L or a sperate supply". The supply comes from the boiler so my understanding was that it should be there
