Ok. You are not putting enough on I suspect. Waterbased paint needs to be applied to the point it's starting to run however, you don't want it to run. People apply to around 30 microns when you want to be nearer 100 depending on the paint spec. You can buy a paint depth comb cheap to test...

What have you painted white? I can only see a small white band and you didn't use a roller for that.

I've never measured as I mix to how I want it. Sometimes really think so it holds in place with no slump, and sometimes thin so I can fine fill large surfaces quickly. Having a wetter mix will slow setting and adding water as it starts to set will extend setting time. I mix to ice-cream...

Wrap wool felt insulation around best you can. I think foam is a bit messy

Ah. 75 to 100mm deep of type 1 gravel which is £55 for large bag plus £10 delivery That's what in paying ATM A bag of sharp sand is £45. So I just paint £45+£55+£10 Prices will very as I live close to gravel yard and they have been around for years. Good family business. Measure depth and...

Need more information. You can buy slab mix in bags so use that or mix your own at 4 to 5-1. That's 2 bags of sharp sand to half a black bucket of cement in a 42lt tub. You slabbing entire base?

I just use a small rubber mixing pot and a silicone cooking spatula to mix powder. Takes seconds and keep mixing in small batches and I hate throwing any filler away. You can sand when dry so probably tomorrow although shallow fills takes a couple of hours to dry

You could get rid of yellow and put in blue. Loft hatch would be wider and the frame could be tight to wall. Whatever you think is best. Not saying my plan is better

I go 10. 7.30 mins in you could watch this might help you see it used although an outside tap...

I wondered if that's fish eye in the paint @opps I've had that maybe twice over the years but I've always cleaned surfaces

You can use a cork edging in gap designed for laminate edging. Cut to shape to fit. Or some white uPVC thin strip along floor edge again trim so it fits.

Never put paint that you have used back in tin. Never dip brush in the paint tin. You don't want to contaminate your paint with particulars picked up on brush. Uee a paint kettle or roller tray. If you have bits in the paint strain it through some tights. Sand. Clean over surface with damp...

Self leveling compound then vinyl flooring. Tiles will be gone though. You won't be able to remove self leveling compound

You are trying to make it air tight. Any could air blowing in could cause condensation inside when it hits the warm moist air

Asbestos tiles are often like brittle thin plastic. Houses in 60s and 70s had them fitted from new and looked a bit like marble effect sometimes. Considered low risk. Often not stuck down very well as I took all mine up in 7 rooms in about an hour. Boxed UK and took to the tip. Carpet fitters...

You only need a handful of filler for that. Like I said I use toupret but Wickes sell and own brand powder filler £6, that will do. It's so small. Just push in. Better to turn power off and move sockets away from wall. Hold this thought. Next time consider. Spacing makes job easier. Neat...

You can use anything at a square. 8x4 sheet of hardboard used to be £5 and I cut corner of to use as a big square as an example

It's the bottom that's the problem as the gap narrows. You need to keep a 50mm space from the insulation to felt. You will need a wall around the edge I guess to block the gap with insulation. Then with vented soffit and vents in the roof near the top the air will blow through. I used therma...

No expansion room required. Use something to determine if the back and side wall is square as you can cut worktop tight but and angle will foul it. 2mm gap I'd say would be tight. You can have 4mm so 2mm either end as tiles or silicone will cover..
