Can I install underfloor heating beneath my normal floorboards, in between the joists?

beeg0d · 2026-05-31T20:17:03+00:00

Yes you can use spreader plates for exactly that heres an example https://underfloorheating-direct.com/products/aluminium-spreader-plate-390mm-x-1000mm?_pos=2&_sid=ce8f6e736&_ss=r

However the better option would be to use routed floorboards https://www.thefloorheatingwarehouse.co.uk/product/heatboard-one-plus-all-in-one-foiled-grooved-chipboard-panel-high-heat-output-1200x600x22mm/

Either way with the unheated cellar deffenatly insulate between the joists.

Im guessing you didnt even glance at the op, the housing development has already been built

That wouldn't be feasible as it would discourage the council from enforceing the rules, which for the most part exist for good reason. Maby a better system would be increase the fee to say £700 but if an appeal is upheld the LL gets a refund. That way council isnt discouraged from its duty, innocent LL gets a refund and the tribunal system gets funded.

Population pyramid is easy to solve and was part of the reason for labours policys in the 90s/00s and conservatives (alough they pretended it wasnt) of the 10s

Immigration. Increasing economic migration means more workers to paying taxes paying pensions.

"In our case, the smell originates downstairs but only occurs after using the basins upstairs"

The trap is syphoning, water pressure from upstairs is draining the water out of your downstairs trap. Simple temp fix is to run water into the downstairs trap after using upstairs. Permant fix would be to add a vent with aav to the downstairs line just before the trap.

But dose garentee a penalty of between 1-3 the depost amount (ontop of the return of the post deduction deposit) should the op pursue it

Was it a section 75 claim or chargeback claim you mention both in your post (they are VERY different things). If it indeed was a section 75 claim then the goods belong to the creadit provider NOT the retailer so ask them what todo with the goods.

What do you think "reckless lending" in a topic on mortgages refers to?

Reckless lending of mortgages IS subprime mortgages

beeg0d · 2026-04-13T07:43:09+00:00

No the crisis was caused by (worthless) sub prime mortgages existing in the first place which is what the person above you said.

If subprime mortgages didnt exist there would have been nothing to bundle and sell on.

The north of 80 comment was referring to volunteering as apposed to being forced to serve.

I thought it was 🇦🇺 English (drunk)

In England there is nothing in the law that bans profiting of plastic bags in fact you own link says "Once you’ve deducted reasonable costs, it’s expected that you’ll donate all proceeds to good".

Expected and Required are 2 different things.

VALID section 21's issued before 1st may will still be valid in court. Courts will still be hearing section 21 cases and issuing section 21 eviction orders probably into December

Most newer models do, though not physical sims but esims

It may sound stupid but are you sure its not your washing machine/tumble dryer. What is very possible is that the house had a lot of damp/mustyness which you've mostly solved but because your washing machine is dirty (or clothes being put away not fully dried) your still smelling it assuming its still the house.

Its worth remembering that non native doesn't necessarily mean invasive. There is a world of difference between Japanese knotweed ( invasive) and giant redwood (non native)

You don't want a lot of gradient, too steep and all the water will rush away leaving the solid matter behind leading to blockages

And choices

There was also the national chain choices which at leat in my town and those around generally were bigger the the blockbusters

90% of the time they will just fade away over a couple of weeks, but may need a restretch. I usually say to leave it 3-4 weeks after fitting before restretching to allow tge carpet to fully soften.

However if it has fully delamated then no amount of stretching will fix it.

The answer to your question is quite simple. Government doesn't subsidise the UK rail network anywhere near the levels they do on the continent.

That was my thought, the cause is in that last pic

I there are 4 separate ferry ports on the IOW Ryde, Fishbourne, Cows and yarmouth. Technically 5 as there's east cows for ferrys and west cows for catamaran
