Is it just the gable you are having this external insulation on or the whole house? What’s the finish going to be? You mentioned cladding?

Throw them in the skip. Without the bars they are useless. You can’t use any other normal bar and to try and ‘flash it’ is just going to look a bodge. The sheets work like the ultra lite system. You install all the bars first and then the poly slides up along the bar from the front. It doesn’t...

You can get firring strips as long as you want, they will just be in 2 parts that’s all. Give your exact requirements to a proper timber merchants and they will cut them for you.

nah cause that looks a mint job. The more I zoom in the more I see bits of flashing lifted and other various shadows that could be problems but hard to see. I’m guessing a checkatrade/my builder quote out of 4 people.

Bit of hot soapy water help make it better

A customer asked me how much it cost to make a table.... I answered him: £1500 He said: That’s expensive for this small job? I asked: How much do you think it should cost you? He answers me: £800 maximum... it’s a pretty simple job right? !" - For £800 I invite you to do it yourself. - But.... I...

How big is the house. Encapsulating the soffit properly takes a bit of time. 1k seems cheap even for a semi.

Can you take a picture of the outside of the house showing the windows and roofline in one shot.

You’ll get away with using 2x 135 and 2 x150’s you can taper the cut of your gutter to help. Miniflow is shyte, it will block up after a week, just stick some normal domestic on there. You get more leverage with round gutter.

This is why we put on our quotes “Work is estimated to take 4 days difficulty permitting. The price will not be reduced should the work be completed sooner nor will it be increased if the work takes longer”

Yeah we’ve done a couple. We used Lindab copper, we buy quite a bit of their steel gutter range. Fitted together perfectly. It’s good stuff.

Cement and decent quality sand don’t need any additives and will do the job just fine.

5mm poly will flap like anything. You’ll need 10mm solid poly but that’s more expensive than glass. Perhaps consider cut to size acrylic or Perspex, will be cheaper than poly.

Was he the same guy who did your fascias. Jesus.

Yep it’s full of shyte. Just needs taking apart cleaning out and that screw taken out.

National plastics should do it. Go to their web page and branch locator.

That’s a small valley. You don’t need a diverter. You need a competent roofer to sort the valley out. Don’t use whoever looked at it before who used chewing gum to repair it.

You could get away with starting from the valley upwards. Tiles off new undercloak and fresh mortar.

If she paid £1k they will be able to rectify it twice over and still have change.

If it’s into the outlet then gunk it and bodge it. Ensure a support bracket is as close to the outlet as possible.
