    Moss and lichen removal

    You are parading your ignorance here. All "safe medications" as you call them are chemicals, which you seem to be worried by. And all "safe medications" have side effects, some of which are very bad indeed. And I am not comparing two different things here. Benzalkonium chloride is used in moss...

    Moss and lichen removal

    Patio Magic (which I have used) and Wet & Forget (which I have not) are basically dilute forms of benzalkonium chloride. Something like 7 or 8% and you dilute it down to 1 or 2%. I bought a lot of BAC 50, which is a 50% solution of benzalkonium chloride and use that on my rather ratty front...

    Replacing asbestos roof

    You ask a question, I answer it and when the answer is not what you like you get upset. If you don't want answers or are going to refuse to even think about doing what is suggested then don't ask questions.

    Replacing asbestos roof

    But he clearly has not bothered to even try what I suggested. It looks like he has seen a page on the council website and just given up. That seems to be based on local councils always doing everything they are supposed to do and always communicating it correctly.

    Replacing asbestos roof

    As I said "That was a decade ago". So I can't remember and even if I could a 10+ year old price from London would not be very relevant in Norfolk today. You said that your council will not take this and that was the only point that I was replying to.

    Replacing asbestos roof

    I don't think that is right. AFAIUI councils have a duty to accept a 'reasonable' amount of asbestos material per year. We had a small outside lean-to re-roofed and the roofer told us, correctly, that it would be much cheaper for us to dispose of the old asbestos cement sheets than paying him...

If you search for recent posts about moss you will a number recommending Patio Magic (which I have used) and Wet & Forget (which I have not). Both...

    Cold Lay Tarmac

    I used cold-lay tarmac (and a rammer) to fill in some gaps in my front yard. I didn't check it that much but after a couple of days it seemed unchanged from when I had laid it. The stuff is a mix of stones and 'tar' and it can be made to fit the hole because tar enables the mix to spread. The...

    How to insulate a single-skin detached garage wall? (Ed.)

    If you click on the post in Your Content then it will take you to it and you can see what group it is in. Presumably you just asked the mods to move it and did not specify a group. Picking the appropriate group would have been more useful.
