It’s lovely stuff. Gigantic bay windows downstairs with 12 panes each I’m not looking forward to.
Are you using heat or chemicals? I did it on my mum's 1960s house and I swear I've lost several years off of the backend lol.
Just heat, this window definitely doesn't have original paint on it from what I could tell only 2 or 3 layers.
I'll probably use peel-away or similar against the glass bead given heat will create a risk it cracks.

I have pulled my finger out and done the worktops I also made some wooden table tops for our side tables and printed some air flow guides for a friends extractor so it stops making tornados in the kitchen.

Started prepping the loft to insulate. So many redundant telecoms cables up there. Also redundant plumbing from a legacy install. The pipes go into a boxed in section in one of the below rooms which I'd like to remove. What's the best way to do this?
Note to self, buy a bloody dust mask next time.

I'd probably open up the boxing and confirm everything in there is going to come out from your loft work.
So steps like this:
1. Buy a pack of decent dust masks
2. Remove the boxing and inspect
3. Remove pipework

Hey all, what type of sealant would I need to go round a vinyl (lino) kitchen floor? Sanitary anti mould silicone as per bathroom, or something else?
Fireplace in loft room had a 'flap' that wouldn't open... filled a 12L flexibucket.
Chimney's were rebuilt/pointed at some point.
Crawled down the eave with the hoover clean up the loft massacre, never ending cluster fly invasion.
Plumbed the new rad in the dressing room. Left the valves on when I moved the pipes when system was last drained, chuffed with how well my measurements worked out.

There was a little gift when I gave it a nudge so I was prepared!
I’ve used a few smoke bombs now of varying sizes, they all work and it’s no where near as bad as it was initially but a good 6-7 weeks on and there is still some life in there.
Hoping the cold kills them off. I have a good idea of where they find their way it but I don’t really want to spray foam around roof trusses/joists if I can help it.
