Thanks but no, the part I'm after is straight aluminium that fits over the U channel on the wall, I'm sure there must be a site that sells it, still looking.

Wonder if anyone can help, I'm reusing a shower screen but the part the glass fits into needs replacing, see pics. I don't really want to buy a new screen just for this part but can't find it or know what it's called

are these plastic fixings that come with closed couple toilets supposed to be hand tighten only?

looks like you got there already but if you try using just adhesive, grab adhesive works best, apply using circles of the glue instead of lines down the back of the skirting, the circles gives you suction and holds the skirting back to the wall, i try stay away from drill and plugging its a ball...

im pretty sure there fd60 doors, yeah softwood linings and the door stops are 20x25mm

is there a reg for how thick a door lining needs to be? I got someone to pick me up some timber for an oversized opening, the lining comes out at about 180mm wide, but they've brought me back timber with a thickness of 20mm thanks

thank you

Almost certainly is ok?

Is there a reg to say how many flats can connect into one soil pipe? ive got three flats, 2 one beds and a studio that need to share the same soil pipe, is this ok?

actually having them on the outside wall in the bin store area would work really well, just dont know if you can put stop taps outside. also what about the pipe size question, can i use 15mm for the whole of the pipe work or should i use 22mm and T off to the sinks ect in 15mm?

is having them on an external wall an option? boxed in with a door

im converting a property into 5 flats, each flat has been separated as there own dwelling so have there own electric and water, there all pretty much the same so will have a shower and sink and a kitchen sink, being used by 2 adults, can i use 15mm for the whole of the pipe work or should i use...

I agree, with the 70mm cls and gap behind the 100mm batts would just be touching in some places but compressed by 30mm in others, so i would have gone for that but theres already to much difference in r value, 2.86 for the Knauf green slabs 100mm and 3.4 for the 75mm celotex/kingspan I cant say...

I know it's a little different cause there's no cavity but I would have thought building paper then something like the green earthwool batts of insulation would be better because you can squeeze that into where it needs to go loosing any gaps at the back?

the brickwork is no where near flat and my concern is I'm going to end up with condensation between the brick and cellotex, This is the design from the architect to get r values, yes I can fix top and bottom, I've made ceiling height 2.4 so i think the 3by2 will be fine over that height and...

I have a brick wall house with no cavity, this is on the first floor, I've stripped the walls back to brick and I'm going to put 3" by 2" cls on edge, probably braced here and there but not properly fixed back to the brickwork with 75mm celotex in between the stud work, then insulated backed...

Thank you for the info much appreciated

OK cheers mate, so your saying this is water damage? My neighbour had chimney stack pointed and all the pots changed a few years back, but looks to me they were never capped off. OK iv just had a search for damp bricks and found it called spalling, the fireplaces won't be used again, so first...
