    How to repair the decking and supporting posts?

    Wow. Firstly, when did I complain? I thought I was being quite polite and being understanding to the advice given. I was simply talking the cost difference between renewing the decking and porch rather than pulling the whole thing down and building a new (at which time, no mention of not using...

    How to repair the decking and supporting posts?

    yes, totally get that and I did think it. but guessing the cost of timber to replace entire decking, base frame and couple of posts would roughly be £100-£200 as decking area is actually quite small. Cost to get someone to demolish the entire shed would be few to several hundreds? (if not over...

    How to repair the decking and supporting posts?

    I know it looks bad but is it not rescuable? I am looking to replace all decking, middle two posts and probably beef up or replace where needed the base frame. I just didnt know best way to jack up the roof.

    How to repair the decking and supporting posts?

    sorry to bump, but was hoping to get materials this week and get it done for the weekend. could you expand on how to set up and fix the inverted L support please? would seem unstable if not fixed to base and roof?

    How to repair the decking and supporting posts?

    Yes, it's sagging as the centre-right post is completely rotted and doesn't actually bear weight!!

    How to repair the decking and supporting posts?

    Just to be clear, is that two timbers (c16 ok?) joined by a bracket. And the screwed to the underside of the roof? Should I screw the bottom to the base frame to be safe?

    How to repair the decking and supporting posts?

    Hi all, Looking to replace rotten decking and posts which support a porch roof of my shed. I was wondering what the best approach in doing so and if it's possible to decking whilst temporarily supporting the roof. Please note the posts in the middle are not that supportive and one provides...

    Fitting bath/shower screen over siliconed bath.

    Thanks. By profile you mean cutting a small angled section off the wall profile? I would need to do that to the screen profile(metal hinge section) as well I presume. Just seems a little risky to do that. Yeah, I gathered the smaller screw is for the attach the hinge to the channel and my...

    Fitting bath/shower screen over siliconed bath.

    Thank you. ONe I dismantled before had 3 screws. But this one's only got two which is a little worrying especially the screws is like 10mm long. The manual says not to drill the face of the screen profile. Does that mean I should just drill the wall profile and then screw through the screen...

    Fitting bath/shower screen over siliconed bath.

    Also, might now be a while before I can install it. Manual says drill a hole in the wall profile approx 100mm from the top and bottom. However, just noticed the wall profiles already got holes drilled but at about 34mm from the top and bottom. Have contacted seller and manufacturer. Also, the...

    Fitting bath/shower screen over siliconed bath.

    Sorry, just reread my post and grammar was horrendous. I meant if I was to cut a notch. Then silicone around the notch whilst I put the profile in. Some of it will naturally seal the inside of the screen at that part. I guess I just be careful and try my best to wipe away silicone so it...

    Fitting bath/shower screen over siliconed bath.

    Thanks I'm hoping thats the case too. The only other is is. Manual says not to silicone inside of the screen. But having the nitch and resiliconing up to would mean I am? I understand not siliconing the inside is so water can escape when water inevitably gets inside the profile. So should I...

    Fitting bath/shower screen over siliconed bath.

    Hi all, I've siliconed the bath tiles and bath edge already. Decided to go with a shower screen now and to install the wall profile bracket so it can be flush to the wall, is it best to: A) cut the silicone at the point where screen will go and remove all(as much of) the silicone and...
