Thanks for the responses. I would buy a new one but i live in a rental flat and the shower head appears to be an expensive that was noted on the inventory...

Not really sure if this is in the right place!!! I have a plastic showerhead that has been dropped and has a crack in it where water spouts out. I was wondering whether slathering super glue over the crack would prevent any further leaking? has anyone had this experience before??

Thanks Tony, thats what i thought! It seems a bit annoying for the client though :(

Please don't shout at me! i am finding it hard to decide whether the attached extension will be Permitted Development or not. I have read in a booklet that it will as the rear elevation of the extension is wider than half the original width. A planning consultant told me it would be P.D. but if...

what about a mono-pitch over the single storey front projection up to the stair window, but cut into it and flat roof beneath the stair window? Shuffle the first floor front windo to suit? Maybe even get rid of the stair window and re-use the stain glass else where?

to be honest woody, i did forget that this was for DIYers! i totally see your point about i should know these things, but as i don't i was just looking for some help.

woody, i thought that knowledge sharing was the point of forums?

thanks Jeds, i will do that...

hello, can anyone help me specify an upgrade to an internal wall currently 100mm stud (not sure if there is any insulation within), that needs to become a seperating wall between residential flat and an office space? I have tried looking at White Book (British Gypsum) but cannot find a...

i tried to do a 'thumbs up' type of thing, but couldn't find one, that is why i have 'thanked' indus & jeds...

we have tried to help, and as FMT says, that'll be £550 + planning fee and all you worries will be gone! We cannot help you on here to correctly draw the rear elevation of an extension that (probably) none of us would have designed! You may have spoken to someone at the LPA, but once you...

you rear elevation looks incorrect. the existing roof will not be able to continue to the eaves of the first floor extension. The height of the new ridge will depend on the rear elevation, so the height that you have showen it on the side elevation may be wrong. What do you plan on...

I'm not charging them extra, i just meant that they would need to install it (surely - the planners willl check?) so there would be the additional cost and upheaval of doing it?

i had broached it but was hoping that someone would see sense and only make us sound insulate the party walls within the loft conversion area.

i would love to appeal but the clients are about to have a baby and therefore want the conversion done ASAp! looks like i willl need to break the news of disruption and additional expense!!! bugger :(

Sound attenuation. I have designed a loft conversion in a mid terraced first floor flat. One of the panning conditions was for a sound attenuation scheme. I submitted amended plans showing drylining on the party walls. The Public Health Officer has said that the condition cannot be discharged...

Haha Freddy, i don't show THAT MUCH detail!

well if you ever need any draughting work done....
