In the house, we keep the batteries In the house as the cold does them no good, so he always charges them In there.

I only need the lights as my plumber son now puts his tools in there at night and can't see properly.

Murdochcat, I only want 2 led lights, no sockets at all. Just so I can see In there at night.

Andy, so terminate the swa in the metal boxes but run the swa internal 3 cores through the box and house outer wall to isolator?

I have a garage that is not attached to the house and is about 7 metres from the house. The garage has no electrics and so I wanted to just have a couple of led strip lights in there. I was thinking of using an outdoor switched fused spur and running some armoured cable. Not sure what I need...

So forgot to post earlier but I removed about 6ft of the valley mortar, put new valley tiles in where there were ones that were cut to far back from where they should be and finally rebedded the tiles. The rafters in the loft are now dry and have stayed dry for over two weeks. So looks as if...

The sheet was put in by roofer, looks like breathable membrane, there is black roofing felt. Will try and get some better lighting to take some more pics and will strip out tiles to take pics from outside. By the way do you know the right consistency for roofing mortar.

Water on this rafter as well now after I had cleared moss off roof and moss between valley mortar and tile.

There is definitely too wide a gap between the tiles down each side . If you zoom in too the tile with the lead you can see that the mortar and tile are back from the rib if the grp.

Noseall, I just want to get it through the winter at the moment, will look into dry valley in the summer. How easy are they to fit? Is there any change to the batten spacing below?

All the pics I can manage at moment as roof still a bit slippy

Water damage inside has dried out but it was a damp patch down the wall.

Ree because I'm not going back up to take pics in the dark lol I would of done pics earlier bit didn't think of posting on here till later. Will post pics in next few days. One of the rafters running down to meet the valley was wet underneath the edge of valley if that makes sense.

Hi All, Had a leak from one of the valleys on our bungalow. Took a load of tiles off and couldn't see any water marks or wet apart from the batten which the grp Valley sits on was wet. I think the water is getting in through one of the nail holes here which penetrate the membrane below. It...

At nephews House to sort lead flashing where sealant has gaps where the lead goes into wall chase. Someone sealed it with something that was really hard like no nails or gripfill, it was a browny yellow colour. Does anyone know of an easy way to remove this stuff without damaging the lead?

Thanks appreciate the advice.

It's my sons makita and he has 4 batteries. It's just the top row of bricks on about 3m of wall. They've done a really poor job on this row of bricks.
