Do these apply to freeholders, for instance if in the lease for the property that the freeholder owns it says something about flooring materials required to be used ... does that apply to freeholders or can the freeholder void anything in the lease at will? I don't quite understand their...

@Designs.3DR It's not the motors, it's the fact that we lose privacy because it was the quiet part of the property now there is a 2mx1m skylight opening there so all thenoise from the flat downstairs come straight into the flat, the noise transfer from the other flat is the problem - the...

Neighbours have installed without planning permission a arge skylight 2m x 1m that opens, its on their ground floor extension roof. It's literally 3" from my bedroom window round the back. Previously there was a skylight which did not open. Needless to say it's made a lot of difficulty for us...

I don't get the logic of warm roofs. Is it just to convince people to completely change their roof design and make a lot of money ?!! (that's a joke okay) If you put a vapour barrier down above the ceiling ... okay where is the vapour in the dwelling gonna go? Anybody think about this? It's...

Nobody knows why these problems occur, even from large companies and professionals ... and it seems nobody is doing any actual testing of different roof systems. For instance what is the change in temperature on the outside and inside of the sheet materials as the sun hits it? Is the problem...

That is exactly what it is, and I would as the utter garbage called "OSB" is another one

OSB doesn't look strong enough to take a deck resting on it. What about doing half thickness ply, half thickness OSB ?

Thanks for the answers ... and the balustrade can be fitted as part of a deck without further support as well? Another question is, is there a better surface than GRP that is fireproof, for BBQs etc..? Is there a flexible concrete with membrane or something like that? Cheers

Planning is no problem there are a few of these in adjacent properties. What would you recommend for the easiest way to convert it into a balcony? Cheers

Only got photo right now, there's a tiled roof with attic space. I'm thinking to strip it down put a grp roof on and turn it into a patio. I am thinking about how to fix the decking balustrade so it's solid. If piers go through the roof to connect with the structure below, how to waterproof...

Hi. If a 1st floor patio is done over a fibreglass roof, and it has decking ... does the deck just rest on the fibreglass and bolted to ... in this case it would be a patio 6x3m and the deck could be bolted to 2 walls in an "L" shape ... is that sufficient, or does it need to be bolted through...

Thanks but the heads are very flat ... do you think if I put a crowbar under I could lever it up gradually?

Hi, and Happy New Year. I have to get under the Victorian floorboards to lay insulation, but there are hardboard sheets on top with about 30 nails each. Is there a way to get these sheets off without destroying them that anyone can recommend? Thanks

I don't know what you mean? They do generate power ! Perhaps you can explain.

Ha ... you have nothing to say. It is after all not very common for people to put their cosy view of the world on the line. It is easy to stay under the duvet and imagine everythign is going to be alright !!!

@flameport Countries that have ordered new nuclear stations include: Slovakia, Turkey, UAE, USA, Bangladesh, Iran, Korean, Russia, India, France, Bangladesh, Argentina, Pakistan, Finland, Belarus see https://world-nuclear.org/ All this virtue signalling just means nothing when the bank...

Do you know that france has 60 nuclear power stations and China is building 150 new nuclear stations. Do you know that ? All countries are. So ... we are going to do the same. All this Greta nonsense means nothing. We don't need to stop breathing to save the goddam "environment" (wherever...

Thanks for your help

I hear the Government is now run by Great Guilttrip Thunberg and so we all have to have the L.E.D insect lighting in our homes. Anyone else hate this lighting? Is this going to revert to sanity in the future, or is this part of the Great Reset Generation Insect?
