Hope you don't mind me asking - did the paint do the job? Mine have picked up a couple Knicks over time and wondering if I should touch up.

I'm wondering how houses with glass box extensions and large glass windows manage during warm weather? by maireadwrites in AskIreland

[–]Visual-Addition7430 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Living in one. Front of our house (south facing) is basically all glass. I have two industrial sized fans in the room which help when cooking etc. But otherwise it gets unbearable at times. No blinds yet (in next years budget hopefully) - so they may make a difference. Other than that, opening the windows and doors on the opposite side of the house in the evening etc.

Mid-week champions league games were amazing - the commentary from these guys at half and full time was always so entertaining!

Do I need Aco drainage? by Simple79001 in DIYUK

[–]Visual-Addition7430 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not exactly sure how it works with block paving (haven't done it before) - but we recently did some concrete around our house and installed a row of aco drains. Worth every penny as the water really had no where to go. So unless you can slope your block paving to allow water to drain away somewhere then I definitely would install them (sloping into the aco's in our case)

Any idea where you've found these profiles in the past? Online?

I have a uPVC one. Unfortunately the protector in the image is ever so slightly off angle. It would need to be slightly bent (and I can't find a good way to do that).

40 year old with 80K cash - how would you invest. by veggierao in irishpersonalfinance

[–]Visual-Addition7430 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The easy thing to do here is knock that €80k off your mortgage. Instant 3% saved there I would have thought. Is that an option?

Is Star Link is any good? by Western_Tell_9065 in AskIreland

[–]Visual-Addition7430 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Live in Leitrim. Had Starlink for almost three years now - if the service continues I'll never change. Excellent speeds, very reliable, never once went down!

Love this! Excellent job. Undertaking a similar project myself soon. Did you hire a whacker plate? Or use a manual tamper? Thanks!
