I am well aware of it been on a loop system and my T's would be one on the flow and one on the return!

Hi We have a large bay window (5.5m x 2.5 on each side) and is about 0.7m high, double glazed all above. Currently the only heating in this room (apart from a multi fuel burner) is just a small skirting type fin radiator. We have sized the required BTU for 2 new double panel, double...

Thanks woody that is my line of thinking and sort of what the BCO sugested given that we are not building the extension just sinpley re-roofing. I think given my time frame, I could give a date for them to visit when we have the trusses up before we felt over, as they say you can book them in...

Yes, they do sell it without the twiddly bits, and - the gutter. Just that was the only pic I could get. And a metal roof will be good.

Thanks!

I know!

Thanks for that. But as I said, supect it was due to you building from new the extension. Where you working under a building notice or full plans? We will be using building notice which does NOT require plans. SO back to my orginal question, at what stage would the inspector...

Arg I see, approval to the truss makers not building regs. Yes, they have told me they will come to site (chargeable £50), but for £50 I am happy with that, and get full spec drawing /loads etcs. Based on my basic (but fairly accurate) measurements the hip trusses are about £300, but I...

But I thought the whole point of a building notice is plans are not required? I think yours was different as you where building new. Ours is already there, so been classed as reroof/insulation improvement. Yes we are also using a specialist truss manufacturing company that will also come...

Hi we are planning on converting the flat roof of a 2 story extension to a pitched roof, to blend in with the main house roof which has clay panties on. Reasons been, 1: flat roof is due for replacement (25+ years old and had to patch a couple of times) 2, very poor/zero insulation in...

We are now going with this instead of the dome light. 2 x 4m Will "join" the old and new togehter very well, and look good on the FLAT roof :P

YES!

Thanks Joe. We are realy pleased and the roof dome will help as the current lean-to area could be quite dark as it would in effect be "inside" with no direct light. I know it is a flat roof section, but I see this as more benift than a 100% flat roof extension. For the flat roof section...

We just don’t want a flat roof, they look rubbish! Is a practice to do a compromise? I.e a flat middle section (sort of the area of the current lean-to roof, but then pitching down as hips from there? This will then give from ground level the facing slope of tiles , but at a pitch of about...

I am trying to replace the flat roofs on the other extensions! So no flat roofs please.

As above, save you money on the courts, and carry on what your neighbour started!

Hi As the picture below, we are wanting to create an extension with the foot print as below (6.50 x .50) But I am struggeling as to the roof design as we are (as far as I can see) restricted by the 3 first floor windows preventing us from getting a pitch greater than 12 deg. I was...

Having just picked myself up off the floor (both from laughing and the price) following a quote from Everest to fit a matching window required due to some building work. The rest of the house is in Everest white Aluminium with hard wood frames, all in 100% perfect condition. But we require...

No problem. We have no gas and the electric is over-head to the house! Simples!

Just got my tape measure out....even 750mm is a deap trench! It sounds simple "30mm pipe" but in reality I guess to dig that deap you need to be able to physicaly get in the trench. ! Me thinks a mini digger might help? I will proably need a digger for a nother part of the project, so...
