This so called carpenter by trade has used softwood and did not made any joint just stack the 2 panel. If nothing work I may need to stick a corner profile to cover this ****e. Any idea?

I know it may have been the worst job a carpenter has made to my house. Got old stair post clad with 10mm timber and gaps was filled with filler. This keep cracking when season change and temperature in the house rise. Would be good to open the gap between the 2 timber and fill it with...

Thanks John Not sure when buying second hand they allow you to do all of these check but will try. If there is compression at least is not the engine packed. Will let you know

Does anyone know the compression (PSI) for the stihl engine when they are new condition? Going to view a professional chainsaw which they say does not work and only fuel needed. Sound strange as everyone can put fuel and try. Got compression reading tool and if allowed can try but not sure what...

Sound very expensive for a bit of grout. Do we really need a resin joint? what the benefit if you also are worried about jet washing it?

I Have to grout a patio wich has riven sandstone slab with 10/15mm gap. I understand dry mix sand cement does not work for this type of slab and brush in product would be ideally. I came across Sika fast fix but load of comments about failure and product coming loose apart to be very expensive...

Would you suggest drier mix of sharp sand/cement or brush in product? Do they both last same time? Which one is more flexible to stand cold and hot temperature?

Make sense but will use same mix to render brickwork from my conservatory to make same matching render as these walls are next each other...

No waterproof or sbr? Any sharp sand for the scratch coat?

Smooth finish with sponge

Hallow block. Just retaining a filled out of compacted rubble to make a risef patio. No soil or water should be inside. It should be pretty dry as there concrete slab and patio slab as finish on top. Ideally a stong normal render would be fine

What are the marking for stopping people unloading?

I know but it was less than 30 second and had to rush to work. Mo point to get in out the free space for very short period of time. Pretty unfair to me

Few weeks ago I dropped off my sister to Stansted Airport and stopped for less than 30 second at the end of the road which was marked with double yellow line and not sure how called white 45 degree line. it was just for a matter of few second but unlucky I notice an highviz car running on the...

The 5 spot seems the way to go for that slab due of thickness inconsistency. Do you use any plasticiser on the mortar? If I want lay those staggered with something like 10mm, would you leave the gaps open and then grout with sand cement the following day? How this is normally done when layed...

I would avoid the 5 spot as we have removed those from another area and they were all loose and full of grass between them. I prefer to have those on full bed and 10mm gap staggered. What would be the best bed to use in this case?
