Thanks for the info! I actually went ahead and bought a snap together system from these guys; www.nick-gray.co.uk The guy who runs it replied to my questions and was really helpful, they have a self-adhesive foil strip for the joint between roof and brickwork, I'll let you know how it...

That looks like a great system, thanks a lot for the link Is the sheeting held in place by the glazing bars snapping together, or do they need screwing down at all? Did you need to use any sealants or aluminium tape at all? or were the trims and flashing enough? Does the "self-adhesive"...

Hi! This winter I made a sort of pergola/lean to on the back of my house, it's about 2.5m high, 5m wide, 3m front to back. I put a white tarp roof on just to get me through this year, and as expected it's sagging and going green with moss etc where the water gathers I'm going to take it...

Just had a look down the end of the garden, and this pathway doesn't go the full width of the garden i.e. it stops about 12 feet short of the boundary on one side, and four feet on the other, so the higher ground continues right down to the back edge of my property in like a 'C' chape, with...

Ah I see, thanks I think I'll also speak to the council about getting permission for a higher fence from the lower ground, especially in light of the fact it's them that are changing the use of that ground which is quite a drastic change from when I bought the house

Hi Tony So I could build a 9 foot fence here?

Hi There It's my understanding that you are allowed to build to the standard fence panel height of something like 6 foot. However, at the bottom of my garden, there are some steps down from the level of the grass, about 3 foot, to a gravel pathway that goes from one side of the garden to...

Cheers guys Spoke also to a builder friend of mine late last night and he said we'll cut the ceiling away in the kitchen to get to it and put a new waste in, as that's so much easier than taking the tray out and perhaps disturbing the tiling I'll give this fix a go to see if that works and...

Ok me again, sorry for rambling away here, but I might as well have a bash at this as it will take a couple of days to get a plumber and I can't make it any worse. honest :shock: :shock: I just saw that the silver insert on the top, if you remove the "hair trap", will act as a "key" to...

Not patronised at all! I don't even register as a novice.... I'm not sure what you're saying about connecting the underside after using sealant around the top At the moment, the tray is down, sealed, screen on top, floor tiled etc, so all I have when I unscrew the top piece is the waste...

Thanks for that John Would the rubber seal not do enough of a job to just cause a drip drip leak at worse though? What I'm getting at is, whilst I will re-seal that part once I'm happy with it, does the fact that the water is leaking fast mean it's probably not that at fault? Would it...

Hi There Bought a house last year and put a new bathroom in, Dad fitted everything and it's all been great. However, we lost him last year just before he was going to finish a few bits in the bathroom, one was some sealant around the shower waste which needed re-doing to tidy it up So I...

Worked a treat guys, many thanks
