    Scaffold options

    This is my problem area, I may just get a quote for this side of the property. It's in the pictures (google maps crp sorry) The apex starts 3/4 over the side of the house so a cherry may work and I could work on the tiles, not preferred though. Hire for a platform for 19 days is 500 odd, on...

    Gable verge pointing

    I was intending on patching up, I went in a bit ham fisted on the first tile here and it manifested. On the dry verge option I am looking into this and on how to install these on existing tiles and I am not sure it will work based on the battens only running up to the end of the fascia.

    Gable verge pointing

    Doing fascias and guttering and tried getting the Eaves trays on....just crumbled like fudge. I'll be filling in the gaps as I'm a DIY'er. Is there a particular method to removing tiles (shown) to get eaves trays on? feels like buddy hard work to get them off at the moment. I'm working at...

    Fascia & Soffit work

    Yes, it's possible to do that but it slants at the difference in the batten and bottom of existing fascia. It looked a bit heath Robinson when I've done the back of the garage. Not too bothered about two storeys up though.

    Fascia & Soffit work

    Sorry I apologise, I've not given the whole story as I'm rushing around. I originally ordered normal soffit but have now gone with Hollow to tounge and groove it. Reason being it's lighter and I wasn't sure normal soffit would sit in the trim weight wise. So I'll be using hollow soffit...

    Soudal glue

    Thanks, maybe I'll seek an alternative. 2 hours bonding is a bit too long. it was more to ensure it's in place right.

    Fascia & Soffit work

    Still not sure I want to do the soffits this way on the roof of my house, drilling in it a pain in the arse and I'll need to do an awful lot of it for the four sides of the property. Should I just put screwed battens down between existing batten on the wall side and the existing soffit ?

    Soudal glue

    Wow, this stuff instantly cured when doing some testing with it. Worries me tad I won't have any working time with it. Do you need to use the activator with it? It seemed to not be instant cure and bit workable without it. OR do I need to know what I'm doing for once lol.

    Fence Leaning. Uncertain of Responsibility.

    I had this issue of ownership after the last big storm. I thought it was a shared fence as my post end was connected to his fence run.... He thought different and he had already waved the deeds that apparently exist in front of me the Minute I went round to let them know It was down. Overall...

    Bath tap replacement

    I need to change over an old mixer/shower head on the bath. The bath is original for the house so nearly 20 years old. Are distances between holes likely to be suitable for tap sets available today?
