As in a leak? The structural deck is completely fine so maybe through the top?

The rest of the build is fine I fail to see how installation of lights can affect a Vapor barrier that is about 250 above it with firrings and structural deck Inbetween I assumed you meant heat

There are lots of down-lights below but they are very rarely all on. I think it’s poor VP install by me, only used 100mm insulation and gaps wasn’t filled or tapped. I’m a heating engineer …. Done a self build for the first time. All came out fine except this

I have just read up a little about interstitial condensation. It is over the entire roof so I’m guessing this is what it is. What can cause this? Here are the things I think I could have possibly done incorrect. 1. My vapour barrier sheet was in 2 sections due to size and the taping...

Hi woody, it wasn’t marine ply but it was definitely an exterior grade ply. I’m fairly certain it wasn’t water ingress and did appear to sweating/condensation but what would cause that? The first layer not being put down correctly? The first layer was that with holes in this supposed to make...

The felt all looks water tight and it was more sweating.

Hi all, I built a ground floor extension 3 years ago with a warm deck roof. It was 18mm OSB, vapour membrane lapped up at all sides of 100mm rigid insulation on top. Then 18mm ply and a 3 layer felt system. I did everything bar the felting. I whilst making a material list for a second storey...

Yeah Didn’t work

The change oil service light has come on. I have oil, ands service a couple of weeks ago. how do I get the oil light off or reset the service? Can’t find it anywhere online

I already took the 4K fire stick back after unpacking and repacking neatly. but…… on a plus side this fire stick plugs in directly to Tv and now works I’m sure the 4K one didn’t which is why I couldn’t do it. Different size maybe But at least it’s sorted!

I’ve got a chrome cast somewhere I thought that was to just mirror from phone to tv Stick doesn’t fit in without adaptor there is all sorts of supposed fixes online Nothing works

I haven’t configured this one. I configured the last one that I took back thinking it mustn’t be working Reading all sorts on the net, it’s the Samsung TVs ffs

The only other HDMI device I have is a mag254. The box appears but remote doesn’t move anything. I assumed the box was nackered but maybe a TV issue ‍♂️ Its an UHD 4K Samsung which is annoying cos I took a 4K fire stick back thinking it was due to the tv not being 4K. the stick works on my...

Hi all, I have a Samsung Smart TV. It’s probably about 8-9 years old. just purchased a fire stick and it just gives a blank screen after the initial fire tv logo. I am reading it might not be HDCP compatible …..but surely all smart TVs would be….. can anyone help please

Surely a concrete block laying down ain’t no getting blown anywhere ‍♂️ Like Notch said, pointless having blocks the entire perimeter, and if I’m not doing that and the level isn’t massively an issue then surely it’s pointless bedding them down. The sole plate will be screwed down through the...

Toppled? They will be laying flat....

I think I’m thinking far too much about it. The slab isn’t massively un level. Can probably just space concrete blocks around the perimeter (not bedded, unless a levelling issue) maybe a couple through the centre. DPC between any block and timber, maybe doubled or tripled up to aid levelling...

I didn’t even think about adjustable pedestals.... I saw the plastic strong enough to take the load of the walls and roof ‍♂️ Have you done lots before?

Any links? The only durabase I know is tiling matting

I wanted to bring the cladding down to cover the blocks so it’s not unsightly. If I leave say 50mm at the bottom of the cladding and finish the breather membrane at the top of the blocks. Would that be ok? So really I only needs blocks on the sides the joists will sit on? And could just close...
