Do you have a soil pipe terminating in the loft? Check all vent ducting and that the insulation isn't blocking the vents

Much the same framing as mine! Yes, just screwed into the MDF; the lid is fully supported so the hinge isn't taking any load. I also skipped the stays, sometimes it's annoying mostly it's fine. I also didn't have to be too 'pretty' about the top as I had a seat cushion made to cover it all...

Given the state of that install I'd seriously consider removing and reinstalling. If you're set against that, then check the drain works ok and isn't somehow going inside but mortaring seems a must

Do you have a pic of the install? Pilot the screw holes and it should be fine using a thin longer screw. I made mine using studwork for the frame and boarded with 22mm MDF then panelled with softwood and all painted. How are you supporting the lid? Mine rest on the studwork framing, hinged using...

The paving looks high / too close to the dpc so consider lifting the ones against the walls. I agree on the drainage in general, get it checked out. For the existing air bricks I'd clear what's in place and add new vents in addition. Wrt 6&7 they were clearly blocked intentionally (one for...

Is that window seat insulated or have any ventilation?

I'd be using somewhere between 2k-2.5k per new m2 assuming the foundations and rest of structure is sound

Looks like the corner of those tiles are tilted outward rather than inward which will help pitch the water over the guttering which looks like it should be extended.

I would. I never got on with the tape method. If you really want to use it get a low tack tape (someone should be able to recommend one on here but some like Frog tape) and make sure whatever you stick it to is dry and sound

What's inside that room? Has it been dry lined or battened and boarded?

Practice! Also you could try an angled brush, but definitely practice

We've got an insulated cafetiere which works really well keeping the coffee nice and hot . Good for a Saturday morning. We also have a sage barista express for in the day. Great machine but you need to fiddle a bit before getting it just right. Ours was about £450 a couple of years ago in a...

Personally I'd find another sparky

They terminated the soil pipe under the floor? That sounds wrong. Any access chambers you can look in?

Don't forget the pics when you're doing it!

The fan exit pops up through the centre and the ducting fits over the lip you can see. The water collects in the tray and drains through the boss
