Ha ha, yet to find mine (off switch that is, not brain!)

Thank you. Yes it would be nice if the brain had an off switch ha ha

Thank you so much - it's a great community on here. Everyone's so helpful.

Thanks everyone for your replies. Been awake since 4.20 worrying about it (natural born worrier unfortunately!). Appreciate the help everyone. I'm assuming if it still happens after the reseal it's not an issue?

Thank you. Is that the same for the internal vertical joint too (where the aluminium frame meets the wall tile?)

Thanks for replying. I thought that with the bottom of the aluminium profile (Photo 1) not being sealed at the bottom internally, the water would still drain back into the shower?

Hi, i have a silicone guy coming to reseal my walk in shower tomorrow but noticed there is water sitting in the outside clear vertical channel (not sure what the technical term is). I peeled some of the silicone away (before i took photos) from the outside at the bottom of the plastic strip...

Thanks John, you too. I love Northumberland. My family are all Geordies so I've spent a few holidays on that coastline. It's beautiful.

I take it that it's a requirement in England? It certainly makes more sense to have them.

Thanks John - just wondered how it worked. I'll not be messing with anything ha ha

Just curious - are noggins usually behind the plywood or in front ie visible from the loft?

Thanks so much John. Note to self - stay out of the loft . Hope you have a great day. Take care

Sorry last question (I promise). One of the boards seems to have a crack along it. I take it that's ok too? This is on the roof slope - just the angle makes it look like it's a wall.

Thanks everyone, I really appreciate you getting back to me. Yes Alastair I'm in Scotland. Hope all is good with you John.

Thanks Alastair. Does it matter that one of the ends of the boards is hanging down lower than the other one as if it's bowed a bit (pic 2)?

My house is 7 years old and when in loft yesterday I noticed the roof sheathing at some of the joints are not butting up against each other. In particular this one where i can see the felt through the gap (pics 1-3) Here are some others - There's no evidence of water getting in. Is...

Thanks Wayners. Roger does make good easy to understand videos. It all makes perfect sense.

Hi, I've had this dark staining on one of my roof boards in loft for at least a couple of years now. House is 7 yrs old. Its not damp to touch, doesn't wipe off when I touch it and is just a small patch. Is it mould? No signs of dampness in loft and hasn't gotten bigger in the last year (I took...

I just painted it tonight after I took the photo and used Armstead Trade contract matt that the builders left as that's what was used originally. I'm not sure if it'll bleed through. If it does should I use a stain blocker like zinsser bin? Thanks

It did feel a bit cold. No pipes on outside. Could it be due to a pile of teddies against the wall maybe preventing air flow?
