    plaster or skim?

    logi, how large is the area you intend to skim ? What do you want to do with the wall after it has been skimmed, paint it, wall paper etc ? The above all factor into the decision to do it your self or get someone in, i have to agree with Richard C, plastering is something of an art which...

    Permitted Development?

    Rules and regs change through out the country and of course over time, easiest way is to contact your local building control/planning dept and request a site visit and advice, as far as i know this service is free (although i may well stand corrected on that :lol: )

    Possible Freezing of a Tap

    Didn't read your post properly :oops: the check valve would indeed stop water without any pressure behind it. Therefore any water in the pipe would be trapped between the 2 valves (stop valve & check valve) and in the event of freeze up would eventually burst the pipe. I have seen frost...

    Possible Freezing of a Tap

    In our business we 'drain down' watering systems in autumn and i would say that by turning off the stop valve and opening the wall mounted tap you should get a little water running out of the tap, just by the pressure in the pipe. Then if the water in the pipe did freeze it would have somewhere...
