Positioned upright like glass is better than being used as a roof where it gets battered.

It’s the thick type

Yes you can ‘cheese it’ if you want but bear in mind any joins will look a lot dirtier in years to come. Our plastics supplier sells 400 board by the metre. Some places by half a length. You won’t need to buy a whole length.

Yes go for cast iron lookalike but there are lots of versions out there that are awful. You’ll need to go for Brett Martin cascade. They invented it. Not sure where you are but www.theplasticsdepot.co.uk in Birmingham by us can order it in for you. I’ve had cascade on my house for 8 years and...

If you can take a zoomed in pic if possible that would be good.

When using jumbo fascia the two pieces of fascia must both meet on a rafter. This ensures you can perfectly level up your join and your polypins won’t bounce around when nailing the joiner which should be nailed on the one side only. That right hand side fascia will always move around now.

Those funky canopies were big some years back due to their aluminium curved design and ease of fit as well as good value for money. However they all came with shockingly shyte 5mm greenhouse poly. It’s the same poly that’s used to replace greenhouse glass. It’s all they could use that would...

you can imagine him telling his mates at the tree where they meet about his new nest guards. His mates be so jealous of him, probably call him a yuppie.

The bird spikes are only for big fat pigeons. You need a roofer to come lift that hip and bed it on some compo.

If you renew the Tudor boards go to www.tudorboard.com and buy from them.

This is a typical “let’s get away with 2 litres of glue instead of 5 litres of glue job” The bubbles will stay forever. The writing is supposed to be up. It shows that it’s Firestone LSFR low slope flat roof epdm Firestone aren’t interested in bubbles. The joins you see are factory joins it’s...

indeed. The free flow gutter by Freefoam is co extruded. White on the inside and coloured on the outside and offers up to 40% less thermal movement than a solid coloured gutter. The neoprene seals don’t dry out like rubber. Only thing is it’s a tad thinner than, say, Marshall tufflex but it’s a...

The round pipe will simply sit inside the square branch with little or no splashing during heavy rain. that’s if the pipe is going in from above or the side obviously!

Personally I think dry verge is shyte and it smells of cowboys. We get asked for it and we say we don’t do it. I’m sure a few on here will disagree with me that’s fine. The word ‘dry’ in dry verge means no mortar, so new build only where they make sure the existing breathable membrane goes all...

you don’t really need the vented eaves trays on the garage, flat trays are fine.

6x1 Put some flat eaves trays in whilst you at it.

I know. Imagine 1: the amount of fixings buttons and, 2: getting them to site on the roof rack! We’ve never installed anything over 1m wide in all the years.

Biggest sheets are 2100 wide x 6000 long mate.

So it’s 5m width. What is the projection? Fixing buttons are no good. It doesn’t matter how well sealed they are you’ll always get moisture down the flutes directly below them. Wide poly sheets, no bars and fixing buttons should only be used on a shed or outbuilding where you don’t mind it...

A hundred percent opal.
