Hi stewie,
I understand that the plasterboard in rested on the architrave.
However, what can you put to keep it down so it does not go up/down with wind/air/airconditioning movement?
Is there some…

moudzj,
I'm a girl.
Question: How do you keep down the 'door' cover on the man hole?
What is an elegant way of holding it down, so…

I have no experience in making man holes.
I am just trying some common sense approach, to help future tradesmen to check under the roof etc.
I believe that by putting…

This may be an insensitive question, but I am looking at the optimal size of a man hole, regarding access to the roof:
What allowance would I need to make, in…

What is the recommended height of the overheads?
Also, is it necessary to cut the tile (800mm one)?
Wouldn't it be easier to position the overheads directly over them?

Would it be impractical if I actually leave the tile as it is, and then position the cupboards over them?

I found some nice tiles: 800x800 for the splashback. Nothing fancy, just practical, as I could not decide on any other splashback.
So thought it would be nice to have…

That sounds good.
Would polyethylene insulation give off any fumes?

Would anyone like to please shed some light:
What would happen if the height of rangehood is 800mm, instead of the recommended 600mm (for electric cooktop)???
Would it draw as much vapour?

But won't it move when the doors open/close?

Hi Althom,
But what would you use to stick the insulation to the door?

Hi Althom,
May I ask, what is the double side foil air bubble insulation?
Where can it be purchased?
Does it come incased in something?
How would you keep it in place?

So basically, to be succint, and state facts only?

Hi Althom,
Thank you for sharing your experience with the brush option.
Only door insulation might make difference to the temperature.

I am not particularly fond of bugs, snakes and their companions.
Speaking to several garage companies today, and these are the options:
- brushed border (it looks like a brush)
and
- rubber…

Thank you very much for sharing.
What did you mean by being careful with words?

Hi pasalamat,
How did you go with the new build?
Did any of the advice you received help you with the new build?

It is good news it got sorted.
Did you have to engage the lawyers?
If so, how much did they cost, and did you have to hire a specialist of some sort?
During…

sunny74, I was reading your story today.
What happened in the end?

Thank you Althom. I appreciate your help.

So that means that they can be moved any time, without adjusting anything?

Hi Althom,
That looks very neat and nice.
How do you ''move'' the adjustable brackets?
Which pieces did you purchase from the big green shed?
Whenever I go there, it is overwhelming:…

Hi chippy,
I understand that the slideouts are on the lower end of the spectrum.
However, would any of the following avoid the need to upgrade to anything higher:
a) having a sliding…

chippy,
Would you be aware, at what height differential are rangehoods tested re: amount of extraction?
For instance, some people place cooktop and rangehood 750mm apart, some place them 800mm apart?
If…

Hi Althom,
Are they made from stainless steel?
What do they look like? (if you would like to share)

How do you store brooms/mops/other long sticky things on the walls of garage?

Thank you chippy and Cala90.

How often are gutters supposed to be maintained?

But wouldn't the strength of tiles also be determined by what sort of base they are attached to, primarily whether the area has been waterproofed well, if it is even…

Hi chippy,
Would you recommend a particular website where one can have a look at the finish - mitred versus unmitred?
What are your thoughts about durability of tiles: porcelain or ceramic,…
