haha I dont know how it works man :) I downloaded the pitch gauge app and used that so got 2.8 for roof pitch - imperial. And 13 degrees metric? does it mean I have a slope of 13 degrees? if so can I use concrete tiles.

I used pitch gauge from play store app

Hi is all breathable membrane waterproof? so if I buy this and attach it to my joists put batons on will it keep rain out until i get around to fit tiles? https://www.screwfix.com/p/cromar-vent-3-lightweight-breathable-roofing-membrane-dark-grey-25m-x-1m/1349p#product_additional_details_container

hi lads when I add my 2x4 wall/top plate for the joists to rest on do I need to cement it down or can I just screw it into the internal skin down from top, I also have 2 straps to strengthen it. Thanks

Hey man thanks no I got it now its sunk in I could not fathom why I would leave a gap from the sill to bottom of door but now I know its because you need to insulate it right, I can do this and thanks again for all you help :)

so, I am currently wrong way around lol, so curve to inside, here on these pics I need to turn around yea? door opens inwards not out.

Thanks mate got it...gonna get what you suggested and cut it straight, thanks again man...appreciate your time.
