Most I've seen say minimum 5 degrees, think I will wait till its got to that temp for 24 hours before sealing.

Hi All, In this cold weather I need to seal around a cable coming out a wall. Do i wait till the temperature rises to at least 5 degrees for at least 24 hours or can it be applied as is and it's just a longer setting time. I've got some clear soudal general purpose to use. Thanks

I will revert to the Double pole circuit.

Thanks Taylor, out of habit I started wiring it in as a normal light switch as you would on the radial light circuit in the house.

The fused switched spur in the garage, do I wire it in as a normal lighting circuit with live and switched live going to it (inc cpc) or do I run live and neutral to the supply side of it and live neutral from the light to the load side? Hope I've explained that well enough.

Thanks again, I will watch that today.

Thanks Taylor, that sounds good.

Trajan, my plumber son has an sds and set of drills, the house is brick with cavity and the garage single skin brick.

SFK, I can see your point but I would prefer not to have to charge them. Murdochcat I think having one socket may be a good idea after all, having slept on it.

In the house, we keep the batteries In the house as the cold does them no good, so he always charges them In there.

I only need the lights as my plumber son now puts his tools in there at night and can't see properly.

Murdochcat, I only want 2 led lights, no sockets at all. Just so I can see In there at night.

I have a garage that is not attached to the house and is about 7 metres from the house. The garage has no electrics and so I wanted to just have a couple of led strip lights in there. I was thinking of using an outdoor switched fused spur and running some armoured cable. Not sure what I need...

The sheet was put in by roofer, looks like breathable membrane, there is black roofing felt. Will try and get some better lighting to take some more pics and will strip out tiles to take pics from outside. By the way do you know the right consistency for roofing mortar.

Water on this rafter as well now after I had cleared moss off roof and moss between valley mortar and tile.

There is definitely too wide a gap between the tiles down each side . If you zoom in too the tile with the lead you can see that the mortar and tile are back from the rib if the grp.

Ree this is the same valley mentioned at the beginning of this thread. Its defo a grp one. There is a cracked tile below lead, I just put that on temporarily until I fit a new one. Will post a pic of damage in loft tomorrow. Can't get to eaves as next doors lean to with a perspex roof is in...
