    Reduce joist height

    Why do you think that response helps me in any way? Why do people come on here to moan rather than try to help. What do you think the obvious reason is? Because the ground floor was built 3 years prior and I wasn’t going to knock through my house.

    Reduce joist height

    The house was built in 2008. I moved in and built a rear extension. The joists in the rear extension were sized to accommodate a second storey in the future which is what I’ve now done. The joists new joists were 245mm by 45mm (nearest match to the original house to try achieve same level...

    Reduce joist height

    1. Yes I know it’s madness but it’s really going to pi** me off and 2. Yes there is plenty of joist depth. What would you do with it? 20mm is to much to lose in my opinion as the original room is only small, less than 2m and the floor is already un level and not in my favour

    Reduce joist height

    Morning, I have just built a second storey extension on top of a ground floor extension (which was done 3 years ago). I’ve knocked through in to the existing bedroom and the new floor is 20mm higher than the existing. I don’t want it ramped, feathered or existing raised creating a step at the...

    Planning for a porch

    Ok cool, well I’ve done that process before. I just didn’t anticipate it being the same. Annoying really. I might just build it and wait for someone to grass me up and get retrospective planning

    Planning for a porch

    Hi all, I want to build a timber frame porch. It’s within 2 metres of the boundary and probably over 3sqm also so I need planning. Does anyone know what application I use? Looked on my local authority site and couldn’t see what I’d have to use. Any guidance will be appreciated

    Replacement immersion heater for unvented cylinder (Ed.)

    Seriously fella, have a day off. They are a unique size and I can’t find it so I’ve asked here. I’ve now asked in the combustion chamber where the comments are not all people trying to flex their muscles about being qualified. It’s so “bread and butter” that no one has been able to give me a...

    Replacement immersion heater for unvented cylinder (Ed.)

    I reckon it is as it says a 50mm box spanner is recommended. The usual size immersion spanner is surely bigger than that. I will take a look when I go to the van

    Replacement immersion heater for unvented cylinder (Ed.)

    I am G3 I’ve just never replaced one this size and can not find a replacement. A normal 1 3/4 does not fit because the brass nut section hits the plastic housing on the cylinder that the immersion is in.

    Vauxhall combi 1.3 66 plate injector issue

    I had an injector spitting fuel (noticed from build of of black tar kind of substance on engine and smell in van) I had the injector washers changed and ever since the van has lacked acceleration and the kick between gears. If i now drive in a higher gear at low speed it gets a little constant...

    Ply wood delaminated on warm deck roof

    I agree a leak would be noticeable. Surely Spotlight cutouts wouldn’t be sealed otherwise you could never change/maintain them. I would go with i have most likely fitted the Vapor barrier poorly and gaps in the insulation……. Naively not knowing the importance but surely would have damaged...
