Looks a nice job are you living in it yourself,what type of heating are you going for ?
Parents firstly and I'll move into theirs on the farm but we both think we'll be swapping after a few years as I'll be better travelling to the farm and them living back on the farm in older age etc.
Always a chance but probably over kill on normal houses? It's a 6 inch concrete block behind that. We could have used the plastic but on a big area it looked to uniform and shiny.
Why do you think wood will be banned ? We used it on our house and IMVHO looks the dogs doolies
plenty of treatments to stop that eventuallity,mind you it would knacker the timber frame industry
Ah sorry yes I see, I think a bigger issue will be all the same type of insulation that is in the cavity of all new houses as was in the tower block
it wasnt the insulation in the towerblock it was the way it was installed ,on timbers with an air gap or chimney as it worked just like one
But it still burnt despite being flame resistant, if fire gets in a cavity and can draw a draught the result will be the same, its very unlikely to happen but we seem to live in a world where risk has to be zero
if you read the report the cladding used had the same fire rating as the one the should have used ,but the chimney effect caused the fire to spread very quickly,thus cutting people off
The trouble was they had been told to stay put rather than block the stairs wells, it was a case of a series of unforeseen events
when the tower was refurbed ,they removed 1 of the fire escapes to make more flats,also at least 80 were sub let which is against the law and nobody has no idea who was in the flats
