Hello guys, I'm looking to buy the lead for my lean to roof. I've read 25mm into the morter joint, theres a 65mm upstand before it hits the tiles. Would 110mm be enough to cover the tiles? Total 240mm or would be 300mm be better? Thanks in advance James

Hello Guys, The only brick acids I can see are around 5-10% from the sheds etc, anyone recommend somewhere I could get some stronger stuff thats not mail order? Thanks J

thank you Nige

Hello guys, Can anyone recommend a skilled brick layer in East Sussex for 3-4 days work ASAP? Best regards James

I must admit it does make sense.

Hello guys, Do you install your soffit and facsia before or after tiling your roof? I was hoping to do it after I had tiled the roof, is there an issue with this? Thanks James

Hello Roofer, I got the 3200mm from laying out the tiles to max stretch, which wasnt much. I'm going to cut the left had tiles in order to get the size required, it will barely be seen other than my neighbours back garden Thanks J

Hello guys, Single story extension, lean to roof. I've got 150mm undercloaks to go on the gable. The total width outter gable to outter gable is 3200mm. 17 redland 49's come to more of less exactly 3200mm with the concrete base connector cut off on the far left tile. To have...

Hello guys, The news was totally unexpected. He had a look at what I had done and said it was okay as long as I used a silica render on one of the walls internally as a belt and braces. Thanks for all your advice guys, I know I came across melodramatic but I was planning for the worst...

Thank you guys, I'll let you know how I get on tomorrow. When I spoke to BCO this morning he basically asked how I would show him the bottom was clear. I'm under the impression that as long as it's below the 215mm DPC line it's okay? Regarding regid boards, tbh your not wrong, they're...

Just checked out that doc and seen page 38. Thanks for the details. How do I work out the area weighted calculation, I can't seem to find it on google. Thanks in advance James

Is there a limit to the u value of walls when using area weighted? Regarding pulling the walls down, we'll see what he says tomorrow :(

Page 15, think I'm looking at the right thing. Edit - That was the new dwelling document. Thanks James

hello tony, Thanks for your response, I was hoping to go down the route to put more in the loft to compensate. Looking at the Part L doc http://www.planningportal.gov.uk/uploads/br/BR_PDF_ADL1A_2010.pdf It states that the highest U value for walls when using area weighted is .30...

Building control called for tomorrow afternoon. Wish me luck guys.

Guess we'll wait and see what he says :)

Hello guys, Cavity wall - 100mm block/ 40 celotex/ 25 air gap / 110 reclaimed bricks I've got three walls on an extension I'm building. You may remember three weeks ago my post about building control seeing cement between the foil and the outside skin. A day later my car engine blew up...

Hello guys, Does anyone know of a full fill insulation that would hit 0.28 in a 75mm cavity? This is working out my options before building control tell me to rip out the celotex thats already in there which I'm sure will be the out come next week. Thanks in advance J
