It already has some insulation there which will remain, the new joists will go in the opposite direction and they will have insulation too. Want to use floor boards for the floor nit just OSB boards or similar. The rafters will also have insulation in-between, then will cover with boards (not...

We have an outbuilding that was an open timber garage under a tiled roof, have had doors put on to add security so it can be part workshop or games room. the construction is as shown in the image. We are thinking of adding an internal skin where the pink is and want to do it as cheaply as...

I've been toying with the idea of building a storage cupboard in my shed for a while and thought it maybe a good idea to share the project with others and also tap into some wisdom of DIYNOT posters! hopefully ending up with a step-by-step guide. The aim is for a cupboard that can be used to...

Anything else in there that might be giving off moisture? It's a common problem with metal sheds, you really need to get the structure off of the concrete. You might get away with painting a liquid damp proof membrane on the floor, then either putting down more concrete or 2x2 joists...

You could run a sander over it all to get it a bit smoother, silicone any joints and then what about just a weatherproof wood paint? Something like Ronseal at the lower end of the budget you could just slap on the OSB. Or maybe something from the likes of Sikkens at the top end with suitable...

personally i’d use bostik green grit as it’s suitable indoor and outdoor. or you could again use blobs of s2 tile adhesive to bond the board to the wall and put a few screws in. why osb? and whats the grey stuff you painted on and why? I know you call it bonding slurry, is this tanking?

Interesting loophole :idea: If you are diligent with your vapourcheck internally, and use full fill inso, there will be nothing coming through from the inside cept maybe any moisture that may exist within the timber (newly delivered timber is often still wet from the pressure treatment...

Durable against what? They can be left as if you don't mind the look. Or just painted if you want them white/coloured. Or boarded over with plasterboard if you want a nice finish. BTW they're OSB or sterling boards not particle board. edit: are you in the UK, they look like three pin plugs but...

Seems the Zinsser range of primers are readily available but hard to establish which of their range is best suited, eg BIN ,123, CoverStain ? any suggestions ?

Ah no I hadn't and I like the osb boards, what thickness would you recommend? Thanks. My only concern is that I will be putting a commercial kitchen in there. They may not be suitable? Is there a particular distance that I should be working to for the struts and what fixings would I use for...

Evening all, I've had a timber framed office (posh shed) built in in my garden. Its roughly 2.5m deep, 4m wide and 2.5m tall. I am going to insulate between the joists and noggins (50mm Kingspan) and the board out the inside. My question is should I use: 1) plasterboard and then seal and...

As for pricking holes in masonry paint, well you're in experimental territory there. Breathable masonry paints are available. and masonry paint on wood? Ply has superior weather resistance than OSB, it will take a soaking and won't fall to bits but will defo swell up over the course of a...

Thanks, for the reply. Damp has been addressed, 100 years of no ventilation. Really just need to know if there is a particular reason against this course of action. Our joists are close together so I recon 22mm board should create a good solid floor. I have been in a place that had OSB...

Not sure if this is the right place. Sorry if its not (its kind of a shed) I have been building a large workshop since June, its a 9m x 3m wooden building. I have dedicated 3m of it to a clean room for 3D printing and CAD work. I have carpet this section. The main "dirty" section is raw OSB. I...

My main concern is moisture, we will be painting but wanted to know the best way to go about it, e.g. primer, filler, sanding and paint. My mistake, thankyou for the clarification. Yes we are based in the UK.

This is what we are thinking of doing at the moment, for a primer I was looking at Zinsser B.I.N, followed by a couple coats of Bedec barn paint

My builder is about to finish a new warm roof single story extension next to an existing extension. The old extension roof is being stripped and upgraded to a warm roof too. Both will have firings, osb, 90mm celotex, ply then 3 layers of felt laid as one complete roof. I have been asked which...

Thanks for your replies. I have realised that I will need to be closer than 1m to the boundry so I will need some "fire proofing" I seem to remember that cement board could be used for that. could I use the cement board instead of the osb. In fact on the back ( facing the neighbours) could i...

In order to avoid maintenance, I thought I'd use roofing felt. However, I imagine the weight will cause it to rip through the clout nails eventually. The walls are made of OSB. Could I use torch on felt? or could I paint the walls with felt adhesive and stick normal felt on...........or will the...

It probably would've been neater to just leave it alone and write "not used" on it :/ I don't think expanding foam is a terrible idea tbh, then gouge out enough of it to filler over, sand and paint if that's what you're happy with but boarding over the area per Odds is simple and effective If...
