The brush marks wouldn't be visible by doing that?

This video at the 6:00 mark. They’re Canadian so I’ll assume that’s a plasterboard wall with either a skim or a tape & fill. I like watching some of the North American stuff because they do things so different to us a lot of the time.

Yeah, sorry I meant coats. It’s interesting because I’ve never seen anyone sand between coats until I was watching this Canadian fellow on YouTube, think the channel is called Renovision. Using a circular sanding pad on his pole and I assume a fairly high grit paper, he sanded each coat other...

As Woody says, probably best consulting the floor heating manufacturer. Generally there is no issue leaving a void between the floorboards and insulation and it’s often done to allow services under the floor. See the BBA certificates from Kingspan and Celetex for details. You could also...

So many questions… Were there any contracts drawn up prior to placing the order? If so then they can’t walk away s as they’re in breach of contract, the mistake is theirs, whether it came as a result of the steel fabricator, window manufacturer or anyone else. Both the Arch and Eng drawings...

I had a similar size bathroom fitted, supplied 90% of materials, similar spec to yours except I did the strip out and disposal. Took one guy one week and a couple days… £2800 and he supplied Hardie Backer, framing timber and plasterboard. This was July last year when everyone was snowed under...

but........ I didn't. :unsure:

Then they should definitely step off the ledge.

It’s only recently that I’ve realised you’re supposed to sand between courses with a light sand paper to give the wall a proper smooth finish. Particularly on newly plastered walls. I don’t see many people talking about this and I don’t believe any painter whose worked in my house in the past...

God Damn Brexit… <shakes fist in air>

That suggests that there is nothing which is correct/incorrect… which isn’t true. Some things are open to opinion, other things aren’t. For example, let’s say I say to you “if you step off the ledge of this 40 storey building, you will fall at great speed to the concrete below and die” and you...

Honestly a good rat catcher is money well spent, we had an issue a wee while back in this place and this was the process. Firstly you need to know a few things about rats. * They have poor eyesight * They come out to play at night. * Where there is one, there will be more and they can breed...

Yep, they’re willing to believe absolutely anything other than the blatantly obvious. Dunning Krueger in full effect with that lot. There’s very few people I have more contempt for than conspiracy theorists. Some say it’s just a bit of fun and conspiracy theories are a laugh but I genuinely...

Liz Truss is an absolute Moon Bat and Sunak is a multimillionaire completely detached from the real lives of the vast majority of this country. Good luck to you all, I think I preferred Boris for all his lies tbh.

What has your quote got to do with the funding of Gaelic schools in general, it gives no context as to why they spent 50k sending a handful of pupils to a school. Just cherrypicked nothing to try and prove a point… please explain to me how a Gaelic school requires any more funding than an...

Patently not true, the schools if anything are underfunded, struggle to find teachers who are specialised in a secondary school subject and speak the language. Show me your source or justification for your claim and I might consider it.r and I'm talking about Scotland not NI.

But should they learn a language simply for it “to be of more use”, rather than to preserve an existing language in a country where “only 1% of the native population” speak it? Clearly the Gaelic language schools work since they wipe the floor with all the English speaking schools in Glasgow...

That’s because you don’t mix in Gaelic communities. I hear all the time to the point I’ve picked up bits and pieces myself. Like I said “burgeoning community”, that means growing, emergent, flourishing. Can’t speak for Edinburgh but there a lot of communities of people from the Highlands and...

Glasgow has a burgeoning Gaelic community, particularly in the West End. My daughter is fluent and can comfortably switch between the two, she tells me she sometimes catches herself thinking in Gaelic too. There are multiple schools in Glasgow now where all studies and interactions with...

Need a door for downstairs hall, tile the front porch floor, paint garden fences, walls, sheds zzzzzzz Don’t worry, I won’t run out of stuff to do any time soon
