Mate, thank you very much 👍👍

Hi, Is it possible to get a commercial valuation on a 4 bed all en-suite hmo ? Thanks

Do you have to wait before plastering over ?

🥳🎅naughty .ommy and daddy stop drinking gin and smashing up the home.

I wish I was working for this guy!

Hi mate, a question if don't mind . My house is over 100 years old ,with stone and old lime plaster. Damp in places at times. I want to install insulated plasterboard to all external walls . I was thinking of dpc ,planed 2x1 then screw the slabs rather than mushroom fix directly to the wall. I just feel that the dampness may travel through. Do you reckon thats my best option. Cheers and thanks for your content

What stuff have you used for damp course? Regards

Thank you very much for the video. Do you need permission or building regulations for doing this job? Thank you

just insulated walls today. i used no nonsense sticky foam adhesive to stick to walls. is it ok to use this or any other adhesive foam around hot water/gas pipes

How do they. Heck for draft from the wi dows and doors

Either drop the music or turn up your microphone, please !

LIKE Your points about the importance of design; not just the quality of the builder's work DISLIKE "Quite a good size", "A really big size" etc. Just give us an idea of how many square feet the room is, please. Excellent, thought provoking video.

Could you do the same process on a bathroom with no cavity? But replace everything with PIR and moisture boards or something similar

how much is building regs for such job ?

How would you go about making sure each layer is perfectly level? Im assuming the liquid screed will self level itself to an extent. What would you do for ensuring the mot and blinding layers are all level? Willna rotating laser with a receiver on a staff be required or is there another way?

Good vid, problem is if the council don't fix that damp in about 18 months the water bridges the membrane and the plaster crumbles, seen this loads, good fix for the contractor though to get finished and out the door

Any ideas about EPC rating U?

Is it standard regs to fix the insulated plasterboard of the brick wall as shown around the window?

How long do i have to wait before its safe to decorate an interior wall?

Hi John, I appreciate you are busy but if you could get round to arranging a quote for April next year it would be much appreciated. If you are going to be too busy to sort it then please just let me know so i can stop wasting your time.

Love seeing people like you. Using your intelligence to get to the root of the issue ❤

Are you coming to rip mine out?

😂❤

Hello John , yes can u give me a quote

Hey John I have 2 if u can have a look for me

Fantastic video Hype! A great tip to get a better ECP I'm going to have to have a go. I've emailed you a plan for the work we are hoping to get done. I would appreciate it if you would find some time to have a look to get a better idea however I know how busy you must be. Let me know anyway.

Where do you get the plaster from in the UK?

At least you didn't walk in on a human centipede.

What sort of load rating does the insulation panels have? I’m looking to build a workshop at home with an insulated floor and concrete slab. But I am worried putting machines in will cause it to sink

Thanks. This is a very helpful video for someone thinking of doing a garage conversion.

🤣🤣

Do you know if an epc rating can be wrong? Let’s say current and potential is both D- could that be wrong?

Can you use these for ceilings overboarding

Great video. We've got a shallow (2 brick high) suspended floor, over a concrete slab. So 255mm between concrete and floor board. 4x2 joists, so not a huge amount of space to insulate. Reckon it's easier to just pull out the joists and in-fill, like you say you're doing in the video? And I don't suppose you recorded yourself doing that very thing in this house did you? Cheers for the quality vid

Good video BUT background music just makes it hard to listen to.

Brilliant hunting to find the real issue of the damp.

Nice. So no need to batten the wall with wooden studs and insulate inbetween? (external wall)? Just stick the insulation to the solid wall with this plastic plugs and foam? Do those plugs get in the way of the skimming? Protrude

Great video! Very informative. QQ: You used hardcore to give you the right depth, if the depth is already correct can you avoid laying hardcore or is the required for strength? Cheers

Wow. The sparkie wants shooting. Holes look like they are in the middle of the joist. Looks like one was splitting so hopefully there won’t be too much loading on that roof. You need a 50mm gap by building regs. You also need approx 150mm of kingspan to achieve the building regs insulation requirements for refurb. Clearly not achievable in such restricted space. Could you not add the insulation on top as a warm roof? Then you can ignore the inside insulation requirements. Given the amount of moisture I’d be opting for a decent Vapor control layer maybe over the normal as well if you are going cold roof.

Cool

Cool

You're still at the top of my list when I get a large wall removed downstairs. 😊 I'll be giving you a bell in the next few months hopefully.

Quick question. When laying the concrete slab that goes over the hardcore and sand blinding, should you also place insulation around the edges of the concrete to prevent thermal bridging?

Great learning here...im about to start a garage conversion and the dpc on the inner leaf will be covered by the 60 mm floor insulation, ill lap the dpm 150 up the wall but does it matter that dpc level will be buried under the height of the floor insulation? Plan to float the floor with board

Question mate Where do you drill the holes if there is already damp course in place (external wall ) above it or below it?

Nice one. Just incredible how rubbish some other tradies are though. What ever happened to having a bit of pride in your work?! Anyway, many thanks for the vid 👌

Correct way is to remove the chimney all the front the top.

Hey. How thick would you make the hardcore and how do you know how much you'll need for a certain job? Is it a matter of knowing the square meter size of whole area and thickness to determine how much hardcore and sand you'll need. Trying to figure out best way to replace my house floor and install underfloor heating. Only thing is i have a rsj in the middle of the house. How would i prop the beam up whilst the concreting goes down? Im confused as to how it will be supported while the floor is having the concrete layed..i understand how to hold it up with the props during the work stage but what do i do when they start to get in the way at the laying concrete stage? Could i lay engineering blocks on the hardcore layer and use a prop on top of that and leave the block in place and just concrete around it? Hope my question makes sense

Hello - Would you use a cranked beam to support a chimney stack in the loft space instead of using gallow brackets ?

Can I put insulated board underneath a non insulated flat roof extension? Do indeed a vapour barrier?
