the program does show calcs. have you used it?.

not true, the calcs are correct for the trial, you can not print the results in the trial version so i used print screen and then pasted in microsoft paint which then allowed me to print it. I have used this on my project and it was passed ok and the steels company had no problems making the...

the two 3 core wires going upstairs. 1 to the loft and 1 to the upstairs switch become live when i turn on the power. i have put these in seperate junction boxes for now so i can use the lights downstairs. so i have light downstairs now. (misses is happy again). i have changed the lights...

thanks i think you are right and i will leave it alone.

download a program called supabeam it has a free trial that will do what you want. select the universal collum or universal beam as the support needed not rsj as the sizes are old. i have used this and found it worked great.

yes i have all sockets working the only wires for the lighting comes from the fusebox thru the wall under the stairs and up thru the wall at the top of the stairs. there is only one fuse and only one live going to it. i suspect that there is a juntion box buried somewhere but i do not want...

i have removed all the plaster in my 1920s terrace house ready for the builders to come in. some walls are breeze blocks (internal) and some are brick (external). how should i prepair them now? PVA? if so what mix?

the rewire is in with the quotes. although this excludes the sockets etc as i have chrome ones to go in (already purchased)

no you should always bridge the gaps.

you can use the program superbeam to work out the sizes. the free trial is ok for what you need as all you canot do is print the results. A workaround is to use the Print Screen button on your pc then you can use paint to print out the results. I have just gone with a Builder from the FMB...

greengrass we could do with more like you. I paid £350 for 2 People to plasterboard 2 ceilings at 32sqm and 1 at 8sqm so 40 sqm with boarding/plastering and making a artex swirl like pattern.

What would you suggest to cover windows while doing a house referb?. I often see windows with a white wash is this just watered down emulsion?. Light has to come in without any people looking in from a distance of 3M.

hire a hole borer from your local plant hire company.

They measured all the rooms and walls. They wrote everything down. They were on time. They knew what they were talking about. It was not the price that made me like them as i had no quotes when they came. The builders that quoted £36,000 were from a extension that they were doing...
