Thanks for all the replies. Been talking to the SE and he says there is no need for building control to be involved in the chimney, but they will be involved for the wall as that does alter the supporting structure. So he is coming to give it a coat of looking at. The chimney is shared above...

I already know about all that but in the example pic (and I no intention at all of using cavity trays to weaken the wall) they are not used and the steps are done with a single piece of lead even the soakers below would not stop ingress of water in the pic as it would run behind them too. Is it...

I don't think thats a con I think he is just clueless, and as stated not a roofer. I can't believe he has done that. Would be interesting to see the other gable close up OP to see if he just copied what was already done incorrectly.

Hi Guys, Can someone help with this issue I have? I am building my conservatory and need to flash the roof with a step and cover flashing. I think I know what I am doing but something niggles my mind. Logic suggests that water will run down the flashing face to the angled return parts. It...

Unless you plan on soaking your kitchen it's likely overkill. That said and like you say if it only slightly more to ensure your sub floor doesn't swell in a flood then why not. Your timing looks fine also.

It's not a requirement unless you have to meet certain U values. As for the mold issue that depends. The cder the surface compared to room temperature the more likely it is to hit due point and so become wet and so encourage mildew and mold etc.

Yeah cut cable has both ends in the supply side of the fcu and the feed is taken from the load side probably best done in flex and using the flex grip on the fcu if thats how you plan to wire the piv.

weak as in barely there yeah. but thanks to google for zinsser product recommendation. ps not dogging your rec just the fact that you did mine without offering anything and only on questioning have you put forward anything of value , turns out that product could be good if it does as it claims.

Use his advice instead, oh wait he has none but he can use google at least. A weak pva will bind up any loose surface allowing your paint to bond it not ideal but in the circumstances. it maybe that it has been coated thick in pva and thats why it aint sticking.

well thats a loaded question right there. The answer is yes. its up to you what you do.

lol what are you using mold paint? this usually happens if the wall is damp so its not drying. you could try doing a weak pva mix on it then painting it.

no reason why not other than the obvious testing that wont happen following the alteration.

i agree as above my mate just had some done by bellway homes and paid 60 a point. that said i think if you shop round you could get that down to around 25-35 depending on how many and how they are laid out in each room. Just make sure you dont get cowboy fitters that dont get the insulation...

its probably a faulty central locking door mech. the inside if not dead or child locked should always work manually. i would get quotes from main dealer and an indy as its one of them faults that where its likely to be a part swap and an indy will be buying the parts from the main dealer and...

boiler servicing should imo be renamed to boiler inspection and test at best. you get that f code because there has been a drop in pressure. it could be anything but could even be where you have banged pipe with the vac cleaner and its really slowly weeping.

when it goes off the pressure should stay the same or thereabouts. if it drops a lot then as above the expansion vessel is shot or needs recharging. replace or recharge are pretty simple procedures.

you have to bleed it until the pressure drops not just till water comes out
