Hi all,
I've recently renovated the porch (my first large-ish DIY project ), and have come a bit stuck on one part of it.
Essentially, I have ripped off some old terracotta tiles that were mortared (badly) down on top of a brick wall, which formed the window sill of the porch. I would like to replace this to a wooden sill (which I have cut and fits perfectly). But how would I go about fixing this to the brick surface? Is there something specific I should use?
Photos below showing the wooden sills in place, and also the current state of the top of it.
Any advice appreciated .
NB: The wall isn't 100% straight on one side where the foundations of the porch have slipped, and is about 1.5cm out, so any tips on how to level this when I lay the sill would also be appreciated.
Thanks!
