i think thats my photography tbh.. its nowhere near as high as it looks. 150mm below dpc? i think thats regs. I will however measure it now you have put the fear of god into me ;-)

I put in a vertical layer of dpm and filled with self mixed concrete

tiler cam and levelled floor but where the cavity closer is the leveller has cracked as the cavity closer offers no support. what the best thing to do under the cavity closer to prep before tilling?

i got 26 bags.. on about 4 of them the edges had gone slightly crusty.. they knocked out ok though. its all inside now. think i dodged a bullet there.

I got some levelling compound on Friday and its been on a pallet on my drive covered with a tarp since then.. I have just been reading the instructions and it talks about storage conditions saying store in containers in dry conditions protected from damp.

or use 18mm ply screwed to rsj - at most it will be 2mm low on one side.. the other side could be 4mm up - maybe plane the 4mm off? hopefully the underlay and carpet will mask it a little also..

didnt sketch as its irregular across the length as well as the width.. what I am planning to do is screw a length of half inch ply to the rsj then if required use self levelling compound to build up the last few mm. the joiner had a look and suggested it for me... or if the 12mm if somewhere...

I'll sketch it tomorrow

the flooring used on both sides is 22mm chipboard but the rsj isn't level... so one side the rsj is 6mm up from the top level of the rsj leaving 16mm to make the floor level whereas the other side is only 2mm up leaving 20mm to the top of the rsj.... to make matters worse the 20mm side is...

it's the upstairs of a knock through. the black in ya the middle is the rsj

bottom of the unit is 50mm higher than wickes but plinth will cover it so all went well. got done at about 22:50 last night.

funny I just picked up the same at local b and q for 60 each .. my concern was more about the sizing as I thought wickes have different sizest. . but the fascia I have is wickes so I should be ok

oh ok that's easy enough then, thanks. The wedge light does have a void that I can fit a connection strip into.

Normal as in choc block? I thought that was a bodge job?

this is the light.. https://www.simplelighting.co.uk/lago-mains-powered-stainless-steel-wedge-under-cabinet-light/ I can get a pic tonight. can the shrink wrap be done with a hairdryer? or a naked flame? I dont have a heat gun. Nor do i have a crimp tool.

Hi All, I dropped a couple of 150mm pullout larder units from my wickes order as they were about £500! even with the 50% + 15% sale. I did get a couple of 150mm door blanks and was just going to blank off the space. However... I have seen the following 150mm pullout basket and mechanism at...

Hi All, I have some old strip lights under my kitchen units that I want to swap out with some mains powered led wedges. The mains cable comes out of my wall underneath the high level kitchen units, the led light also has a cable... whats the most discreet way to join the two cables properly.. I...

its all plumbed in now so i'll cut 4 strips and insert them under each edge, same effect but less hassle. then i'll pop a bead of silicon around to hold it fast.

i see there is 5.5mm external grade plywood to be had. is that a better option than using plastic shims then? i could do with some anyway to box something in.
