    Help with stepped DPM/DPC, pic included

    Guys, I'm drawing up my replacement garage at the moment and I'm not sure what way to go with the DPM/DPC. The garage is on the property boundary line, as the street is built on a hill the soil level of next doors property will be higher than my garage FFL. At the other sides within my...

    Question on solum venting into garage

    I've had a reply from local building standards who say the house ventilation has to be re-routed elsewhere and the garage vents cannot be utilised for this. Makes everything a lot more complicated :(

    Bit of help with DPC/DPM, sketch included

From memory there are 5 existing airbricks in the house (over a 9.5m long stretch of wall) which would then vent into the new garage. The previous plans done by an architect show 2 airbricks, 1 at the front of...

    The toilet could be easily moved and the sink is on a cantilever so isn't in the way. Shower base and bath and in place to stay though :( There is a line of board that runs up the middle of the bathroom, it is reasonably flat. Either side of that though I'd say there is a 5-10mm drop over a...

    Audi TT or Subaru Impreza

    I've had a TT and I had an Evo (far superior to a scoob :lol: ), The TT looked better but the Evo put a smile on my face everytime I drove it (except for its clutch change at £1.5k)
