Thanks for the reply, I was thinking it would have to be joined I'm looking at a wooden top that can then be biscuit jointed? The steel is going to be painted with intumescent paint.

We have a structural column 150x150mm that will sit in a kitchen Island. what is the best way to fit the worktop round this? Thnaks

Hi, I need to build a stud wall to bring the old wall in our kitchen out to match the new wall on the extension to allow us to run kitchen cabinets along the entire run. We are going to use Ikea cabinets, these use a rail that the cabinets hang off. Will 9mm OSB be thick enough or do I need...

We have a 1930's semi. I have opened the builders break on a disused chimney, but we have damp at the base. Would this most likely be from the base or from needing the chimney capped? I can get the chimney fitted with a cowl, but could it be rising damp and maybe need a chemical DPM? Thanks for...

Thanks for the reply. do I need to put a VCL over these bits?

I bought a Ferrex Wall chaser from them, its very well built, really solid. I bought a Multi tool from Lidl years back, its not as well made the switch is rubbish on it and its so noisy.

We were supposed to do something similar basically a RSJ with two steel supports one at each end these were to be resin bonded into a concrete pad, that had to be dug to a certain depth. We had a SE do all the calculations.

We are in the middle of a rear extension, this has a warm roof. where the joists run over the external wall there was a gap between the insulation and the wall. i.e letting in cold air from the soffit, this would have been below the warm roof and above the plasterboard ceiling. I also had the...

I have several RSJ to board out, one is above a set of external doors I gather this has to be insulated with PIR, to stop thermal bridging and then either fireboard or double boarded? Inside the house I have two steels and a steel support post. the two steels sit either side of a cold roof...

i am removing a parquet floor as we're extending and replacing with anew floor throughout. The parquet is fixed with bitumen, it is only a thin coat. Can I use SBR to seal before using a self levelling compound? Thanks

Thanks for the reply, so I would be ok with engineered wood or laminate? thanks

no one?

We are doing an extension, I was thinking of UHF under the new part, but will this cause issues with a covering that goes from old to new, as the new part would be warm and the old cold when the heating is on. Would this cause an issue with Engineered wood, LVT etc...

Thanks I have seen that, my problem is the chippy has constructed it thicker than the 69mm minimum. I'm trying to maximize the light I get.

Thanks for the replies. I understand about the thickness of the upstand being discretionary. I've attached a photo the white line is 70mm which is the minimum, silly question but is it possible to cut the upstand back to this? Particularly on the longer side? I'm trying to get as much light in...
