    How many props for a flat roof support?

    Haha yeah i'd rather use too many than some convoluted method of getting round using any at all! All i'm trying to do is clear the currently unused extension so it's a bare shell while i've got some remaining leave left this year before the proper build starts next spring.

    Shifting existing set in from boundary wall to Party line. Why would I want to?

    The bit that replaces the conservatory sits on a different footprint so I’d always assumed whatever it currently sits on would be dug up and replaced anyway.

    Shifting existing set in from boundary wall to Party line. Why would I want to?

    well yes we know you’re right but until we get to sit down with him and discuss his reasoning behind the want to move the wall we wanted to see if someone else could think of a plausible reason why. the first layout drawing isn’t totally accurate and doesn’t show the step in properly hence...

    Cables mounting question. In a loft space
