    what is the pitch of my roof

    No, the reason is the person building the wall didn't care or was lacking the necessary skills or both.

    Attaching wood to plaster wall corners?

    Why don't you buy longer complete lengths and trim them down to suit your ceiling height, it will surely look more seamless than multiple lengths butted up against each other, which are likely to not align very well unless you have dead straight walls/corners.

    what is the pitch of my roof

    @Old tool guy Nah, you offered some irrelevant conjecture on the pitch and said you'd not work for this guy, wise-ass more like.

    Excessive cantilevering of roof joist

    He's clutching at straws with that statement, that's all.

    Excessive cantilevering of roof joist

    Can a 'corner bracket' (whatever that is) be justified by your SE? Surely to get a splice plate to work you would need to be able to push it into the (presumably non existent gap) between the top of the joists and the underside of the deck?

    Excessive cantilevering of roof joist

    As mentioned can just some of them be sistered rather than every one and why do the sister joists need to be as deep as the main joists? So you can still have a soffit, albeit with a deeper fascia.

    Excessive cantilevering of roof joist

    Not sure I follow, but the underside of the notch looks to be higher than the bottom of the fascia board?

    Hmm, we'll take your word for it. :unsure:

    Excessive cantilevering of roof joist

    If they want justification then justification you will have to provide. They are excessive, they look to be much smaller than the fascia (or perhaps the photos are deceiving?) in which case why are they notched so much? I would hazard remedial work could include sistering say every third joist...

    Projector woes

    Haha, it was a tongue in cheek offer really, it's probably completely knackered/rotten still having been sat inside it's box in the garage for the last couple of decades! :p

    Nails through paint

    Probably condensation in this situation, the nail is a cold bridge from the rafters (which are coldish) to the inside head of the nail (which are warm) so condensation forms around them. Nothing else you can do other than improving the insulation situation, I wouldn't worry and it's not a big worry.

    Projector woes

    Mine never curled at the edges or rippled and they're an easy solution.

    Projector woes

    I used to have a pull down screen fixed to the wall, worked a treat, a black border makes a big difference IMO. Still got it in the garage actually, god knows why, you can have it if you can collect it. :p

    Are any of these boards actually approved for long term external exposure without any further treatment or covering with something?
