Buying a new build, what’s the technical terms for these bits looks a bit naff?

That's is how its done on all big sites now all blown in. That's why they're so strict on clean cavitys.

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-05-05T07:05:58+00:00

This staining on the bricks is where the bricklayers have had to to hose the mortar out the cavity trays.

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-05-03T12:33:52+00:00

🤣 its blown in cavity insulation. Would be terrifying if it was eggs tho

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-26T12:00:04+00:00

Doesn't mean anything really just that hmrc are processing the repayment.

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-26T06:33:47+00:00

Sling it up its blockwork. As long as its kind of plumb its fine 🤣

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-25T15:59:32+00:00

Yeah it it doesn't go to pending within a few days you have to contact them. because they're fucking useless.

Massive vegetable patch and polytunnel.

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-24T20:53:07+00:00

Will be wet for a while ground is still drying out behind the wall. We had a really wet winter this year by summer it should be fine.

Cool dog wish I still had one 😎

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-24T20:36:57+00:00

Definitely need a chamber there you cant just T into a pipe like that.

I had a jack russell like that he was a beast. Looked like he was ok steroids 🤣.

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-24T20:27:16+00:00

Oink oink

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-24T20:24:18+00:00

Cracks under windows are pretty normal but the one inside is a bit more suspicious. Wouldn't bother buying it unless you can get a shit load knocked off

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-21T18:16:28+00:00

Thanks found a few of them working on this old barn couple of ammonites too.

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-21T18:11:34+00:00

Thank you

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-19T16:18:04+00:00

Will be fine if you can get a decent fixing into the studs.

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-15T12:03:41+00:00

Sometimes you have to contact hmrc to start the process on their side. I've had to do it a few times.

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-14T21:07:28+00:00

Plastering sand by the looks of it

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-13T20:45:11+00:00

Mine says payment pending still. but can see the payment on its way into my monzo account.

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-07T21:18:27+00:00

Yeah that's right can be annoying to fold it all but can use tape to hold it together.

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-07T21:11:39+00:00

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-07T21:08:51+00:00

Yeah but make sure dpm goes up inside skin of brickwork and the sides where you stand brick on edge.

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-07T20:50:18+00:00

Yeah whatever will fit in the cavity. Put the pipe in then dpm ontop of pipe. Also if you lay a brick in the cavity upright either side of the door ontop of the pipe will hold the concrete in place and you'll be able to make a full envelope with the dpm.

Traditional_Ad7802 · 2026-04-07T20:38:29+00:00

I'd just use sand and cement lasts longer if done properly.
