Not sure why you’d bother. Mesh tape is to help reinforce a thin plaster skin to resist cracking at board edges - it won’t do anything for adhered tiles. You’d be better off putting your time and money into glueing and screwing board edges to the studs/each other with something like Sticks Like...

Have you revisited every bleed point and checked that they still emit water rather than air? (Again, I know nothing of the process or operation you’ve performed and I would happily accept someone coming along and telling me I’m barking up the wrong tree, I’m just seizing on the last thing you’ve...

I know nothing of this system, but this is my first wondering just from the “sequence of events”; is the pump definitely pumping something, or is it airlocked and that’s being detected?

What’s the reason?

Can see daylight through that extractor. That’s going to be lovely in winter Think your spark might have been a bit of a muppet

By and large, bare materials products such as sheet wood from DIY sheds have labels on so the checkout staff can scan it without knowing what it is.. But it makes sense to verify if not sure

Floating a 4 year old thread to trash talk a company tho.. Hmm Oof, coulda done without reading this.. Just had a Ferroli Modena 80E replaced that’s been reasonable for 26 years, on the say so that the BG engineer found the CO exiting the flue to be way over (nothing registering on the internal...

Wish people would stop talking about plastic like it’s just one thing Examples of plastics that solvent weld works well on: PVC, ABS Examples of plastics that solvent weld does not work on: HDPE, LDPE, PP, PTFE, POM, PA, PC, PET, PBT, TPE, TPU If you want to assess whether it will work for...

This is overly simplistic and objectively untrue; for example the PVC handle on my vacuum cleaner glued very well using solvent pipe cement It massively depends on the plastic. Thermosets may respond well to glueing but which is the best glue will vary depending on the type of plastic...

Looks like chipboard to me

”look this up” or “search for this” please; we no speak Americano No, because you’d have to convert one to intermediary, and that’s beyond

Perhaps you’re not heating enough; the tile can take far more abuse than the paint can, so if you’re not heating til the paint is blistering and burning, give it a go (on an inconspicuous area first). By the time you see blisters the paint has delaminated, but you need to be aware that unlike...

BnQ do 5 cuts for free then 50p per cut; I don’t think that’s too unreasonable.. Your original post read like you were recommending to board out the whole wall with plasterboard just to pack it out a few mm, as being easier than just to pack it out with rips of wood. Now you’re packing it...

Simpler to operate light by using finger to press switches at highlighted locations:

Seems like instant:

Have you disconnected/isolated everything from the problem circuit(s) before you tried turning it back on?

What, lifting entire sheets of plasterboard into place and cutting some to length, twice.. Versus asking the building shop to rip a sheet of ply into 40mm strips on their saw and nailing it onto the studs? Latter every time for me The cheapest. It’s doing nothing structurally It’s available...

Use any that meets the lambda value and price point you like. You don’t have to match to the existing insulation, just roll over the top of it. At 560 pockets, a standard loft roll would be preperforated so you can just snap the whole roll at a suitable width and roll it out. Modern wool is...

First time I’ve seen you admit something about you is extra ordinary What is the world coming to?!

There is a whole forum subsection dedicated to people doing their own projects, and in a good measure of detail too.. Should be noted though your post reads like you’re DIYing the project management part, and getting contractors in to do everything. The general overarching spirit of this forum...
