As long as your floor boards are solid you should be fine Where in the country are you? I have some primer & seal left over from my job you could have unless they included it when you purchased the matts?

I think thats what i said!!! ;)

Treat the ply Lay 10mm insulation board Cover it with primer Lay the mat, make sure you fit the sensor probe in a conduit Cover with flexible self leveling compound Ready & easier to tile

Thank you, Back home this week so can crack on with more work and updates :)

Yes, you can take a tile up without damaging the heating element, i have done it when i wasnt happy with a tiny chip in one of the tiles i'd laid and IF the element is in a layer of self levelling compound and not directly in the tile adhesive! Albeit if your careful you may just be able to get...

Surely you only have to expose the section where the sensor is? Why would you be ripping the whole lot up? It should have only been place in close proximity to a loop and not too far from the control panel itself. Do you know where it was positioned?

Try a garage door threshold seal.... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/231142422628?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&var=530343873971&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Ill be tiling mine soon and finishing with one of these

Im just treating some oak doors with Sadolin clear varnish. Maybe that might do the trick for you. You can get it in a stain colour if you wish too

And finally to bring me up to date... We really didn't like the cheap crap doors Persimmon use on this house and it was about time we changed them anyway, so with my dad having hung the new door in the bedroom, I left it to 'er indoors to tell him 'she' had decided she wanted new doors...

There was some skimming to do and as the brother in law was committed with other jobs, I decided to do it myself, I've done some before during this everlasting project so I was to daunted by it and it was only 2 small areas... for now

The ceilings that were skimmed last weekend are now painted and the electrician is coming over in the morning to fit all the new lighting thankfully as the halogen lamp I bought from screw fix when i started this project has been getting a great workout.. In-fact i have bought that many tools...

So.... At what point do you say "enough is enough" :mrgreen: It seems that overtime I do something, I have to change something else !!! grrrrr :mad: So, I go to thinking that as the rear extension has a fire door into the garage, the garage is predominantly colder albeit its all lined with...

And charge you a lot more than the amount of a UC with a plate welded onto it as was my experience anyway :) maybe not others Shop around too, my local steel supplier (1 mile away) quoted a couple of hundred £'s more than a company 20 miles away! Including delivery.

Also had the electrician come over and remove all the existing lights as they did not line up anymore and will be repositioned which gave the brother-in-law the enviable task of coming and skimming the ceiling after we had patched up all the holes from the existing lights and extractor fan that...

Ive done a bit of plastering and painting where the new wardrobes I'm going to build will go, which funnily enough have arrived and are currently taking up all the floor space in the new bedroom!!!

The front bedroom id practically complete but for some minor architrave and then its all ready for painting albeit I now plan to move the radiator across as I feel a bed would be better position against the gable end wall and head near the window as it would give a much more usable space.

Progress has been pleasantly steady as having not fitted a sliding door before we had to make sure it was all fitted accordingly and as it's not usually done the way we did it (both sides plasterboard and fitted into a stud not against it) just so we didn't cause any damage or attached parts...

I was at Grand Designs last Thursday as wanted to see the Eclisse pocket door in action and see what discount I could get on one from the show. I was pretty happy with the system and its new anti-slam device and ordered one there and then which was delivered the very next day. With family...

So, I've managed to clear up a bit, knock a few more unwanted bits out and generally tidy up to get the wall where the bath/shower was plastered up
