Got no friends? :wonder:

and your doing this after the kitchen and all the decoratings done!!


any before pix Deep?

all the lounge done now?

Coming on isnt it.

The last photo looks spookily like my garden.

Phil, yeah I'm the not the worlds best planner!

The lounge/dining room were stalled. I decided not to persevere with the paper I showed you. The new stuff was out of stock for 6 weeks. Arrives soon and then work recommences. I'll let you know how I get on

Looks good Ds:thumb:

Its gonna be nice and tight under those window cills for lathes/tile and flashing....

Thanks Jamie.

Rooferman, not quite sure what you mean but the ceiling inside will be sloped at the end.

Materials don't look quite right........might not last long.:nono:

Getting there Ds but before you finish the floor put some pipes in it for the cables for your speakers so that you can move things around later if need be then no need to see the cables if you get them near the skirting boards :thumb:

I see what you mean, how can DS get over that problem?

Already sorted except they're being hidden in the ceiling:thumb:

Can someone explain what the problem is please?:wonder:

I think the concern is that when you fit the roof tiles you need al ead flashing against the wall/over the top of the tiles, the bottom of the window sills are very close to the top of the wood roof as it is now. Leaving not much room to fit the flashing.

Easy with all that low quality material, no probs!!

Which roof tile are you using for the pitch on this roof.....

Its just a bit tight for a profiled tile (ie bold roll) which would have an upstand of about 90mm + the lathe of 25mm and then youv,e got to get flashing under the upstairs window cills....it can be done but we would usually have to construct a lead window box under the cill which is a pain...

What is the pitch ???

I see what you mean now. The tiles and flashing are all on now! As you said it is tight. I'll post some pics when I get time

Deep, when you're using photobucket use the IMG CODE instead of the URL to paste images. That will make the pictures show up rather than us having to click all the links :thumb:
