Hi Steve, looks like an interesting job, i'm planning on doing ours next year so watching for tips... is that a soil stack in the corner? our 1960's house also has an internal toilet waste (which I always thought was unusual, every house we've had in the past has had external toilet waste... are you planning to relocate it outside or is it best to leave it internal? looking forward to following your progress. also we had Wickes fit our last kitchen, they were awful, hope you have better luck than us
@TheHomeRenovationExperts 26 күн бұрын
Hello Mark! Cheers for the comment fella! Yeah soil stacks in side are a pain! But round my way it’s standard. To answer the question this one is staying where it is and the gutters are going to chop a section out the back of a unit to allow for it. I’ll be then boxing it in and painting it. Making the best of it really. And really hope wickes do a good job for her as she is lovely!! What did they balls up on your fella??
@markdyballuk 26 күн бұрын
@@TheHomeRenovationExperts thanks for taking the time to explain Steve much appreciated. Wickes wise the problem was they employ freelance fitters and we got a particularly bad one. everything was a problem for him and (like some workmen) he showed up sporadically rather than doing the job from start to finish he didn't show up for a couple of days (other jobs) but made poor excuses... in fairness the order turned up complete and in plenty of time BUT the fitter was a real problem. He tried to charge us for electric work inspection when it was included in the total price we'd paid when we ordered the kitchen... i ended up asking the wickes area manager to leave our house as his attitude was terrible... i really hope that wickes have sorted out their fitters and your job goes well. better to know before, I'm sure it's the luck of the draw Steve. all my best and thanks for your work, yours is a great channel.

In my experience putting 2 nails at the same height in every board can cause the boards to split in the summer or cup in the winter, as the timber cannot expand or contract between the nails. I found it best to single nail at every batten, of course ensuring that the nail doesn't penetrate the board below. I have however seen boards successfully nailed the same way as you have done it without splitting. Not sure why.
@TheHomeRenovationExperts 29 күн бұрын
Yeah I agree, but in my experience when yiu do get the splitting from fixing like this, 9/10 there was a defect in the board and a weak point 👍👊

Hello Daz! Great question and the short answer is I'm not sure. I always use 160 x 80 x 5 box steel as thats more than enough to hold a flat roof above a doorway. I've never had to do a pitched roof so I'm not sure exactly whats required. Sorry I couldn't be more help on this one buddy...

@gareth204 Ай бұрын
You clearly don’t understand the link between the UK permitted development rights and height restrictions vs warm roof, cold roof, or hybrid roof. What you tried to explain, clearly not being able to name it, was a warm roof. An OSB, PIR, OSB ‘sandwich’ roof a waterproofing layer on top like rubber, etc. Great in practice, and great if you want to pay out for planning permission to go over the 2.5m height regulation. Now apply that to a PDR build, and if you went warm roof you’d be banging your head on the internal ceiling. Clearly your brain isn’t engaging with the limitations vs the best solution 🤦♂️ And who has a go at free content on KZfaq! 🤡
