Hi, does anyone know what this material is around the gas pipe that comes into my house? It’s brown/black and quite sticky. Anyone know why it was used? Gas leak?
Hi there. I moved into a 1960s house (UK). As far as I’m aware, the previous owner used to have a gas fire, which they then removed. They blocked off the fireplace and boarded over it.
I had knocked through this to install a log burner. There are a couple of sheets that look to have been over...
