thank you so much, that’s super helpful

Thanks again woody that makes sense. given my internal leaf will be a cls stud wall, in a non building regs garage ‘conversion’ and that my cill is only 150mm deep. What’s the minimum cavity (between external and internal leafs) I can get away with? Would 25mm be ok?

thanks Woody. How would you typically do that? Bellcast bead above the window to divert rain out from the wall above?

cheers! my other consideration is the cill I have is 150mm which I think is ok if the window is fitted to the ‘external’ (in fact only ) leaf. But might me too short if the window is recessed further.

Hey all, I’m converting a single skin detached brick built garage into a gym / insulated workshop. current plan is to brick up the car entrance with blocks (finish will be roughcast) - forming a window opening to a predefined size as I already have the upvc window and cill. I had planned...

thanks again - this was exactly what I needed - picked up and fitted ready for new dishwasher. Just need to figure out how to install the cabinet door now

It’s really tricky to get into, but measuring with a metal rule it looks like it’s 25mm across the diameter of the thread.

unfortunately they uplifted the old one when delivering the new one and before I realised the outlet connections were different.

thanks - this might be the very chap. Existing thread seems to be 1inch. there is a city plumbing not far from me so def worth a go at £2 before I buy a whole new trap / waste. will let you know if it works out.

Hey all, I’ve googled for ages but can’t seem to find what I’m looking for. I’m having to replace my dishwasher - the old outlet hose screwed into the trap/pipe for the one and a half sink (see picture below and yes that is a latex glove acting as a blank). the new dishwasher outlet needs to...

Permitted Development, I think

I’ve actually dug a bit of a trench at the back wall of the garage already. As above the ground level here was above floor level and a patio/slabs had been built right against it. I’ve removed those and dug a trench. I think I can see the top of the founds. If that is them, it looks like...

Hi. The ground outside front of garage Linda just continues on roughly the same gradient as the garage slope. This mirrors the house, if that make sense, ground is higher at back of house than front - for example crawl space under house towards the rear is only about a foot - at the front it’s...
