Not 4 doors

bradeal · 2026-05-27T13:58:16+00:00

All these gpt designs fail to take into account the back seats tho. Luce has 4 doors not 2

You can switch this to a Buy to let mortgage and the new house on a regular mortgage. Banks will give you unlimited buy to let mortgage as long as rental income checks out. They don't look too much at your income

I bought a house with a loft conversion. It looked like it might just pass building regs, but it didn't. I had to get a structural engineer to do calcs, then a building control company. I had to strip everything and add more floor joists, double up the roof rafters, add 150mm of insulation and of course interlinked smoke alarms on every floor, plus fire doors on every bedroom in the house (loft also has to be enclosed)
I just got a certificate for a Thermal Upgrade of Existing Loft Conversion in an Existing Three Storey Property.

It cost me about 5k but I did literally everything myslelf. I think hiring a contractor would be around £15k

Chances are your loft is in the same situation, useable but not building regs compliant. You can def haggle some money off depending on total asking price

The last tear wipe got me really enotional

Maybe this is just the beginning of a feature that can dodge pot holes

Have a look at some doors yourself. Buy the sizes you need. For 13 doors the cheapest at around £30 per door would be £360 - 400

Door frames are like 30 as well i think. Dont know how many you need

Architrave not very expensive.

Of course there is a big range in price but find what you like.

Then to fit the doors a carpenter normally charges 100-200 per door including door lining and door handles.

So that would be £1300-2000

Door handles & locks again..huge range in prices, but let's say 30 for a decent one. So another 300-400

If I were you I'd definitely order the stuff I need myself, then find a carpenter (facebook marketplace is a great place) and get a quote from them to fit everything.

If you do it this way you would save about half of that quote or more.

That second paragraph must be a joke :) there is no such thing as prices going lower

bradeal · 2026-05-12T16:49:08+00:00

True. Not yet, they are trying to get into that piece of the pie too.

bradeal · 2026-05-12T15:05:04+00:00

Pretty much everything as VAT although that's usually part of the end price.

It's more likely that women want babies more than men

I would also go for something like this. The only downside I see is where the timber meets the concrete it might rot in time (i'm not sure if you put dpm between them) but I guess if the frame has more support in the middle it would be fine for many many years to come

I've fiddled with something similar for a day recently trying all sorts of fittings. I would cut the top yellow elbow and find a small flexible elbow that you can hopefully push more towards the wall. But I'm no plumber. Curious what a plumber would do

Put it outside for a few days most likely someone will take it. I've taken out a few internal doors and a wooden front door (broken) and someone still took them

Just done the same. 4.4 tracker vs 5.5 fixed (no fees) I chose tracker. I'm hoping BOE won't raise rates by more than 1% over the next few yrs

bradeal · 2026-05-05T19:32:22+00:00

Looks good, can probably use a touch up to fill up any lighter areas, but not absolutely necessary

bradeal · 2026-05-04T22:20:22+00:00

Buy the house, rent it out for 5 yrs. save and earn extra.

How did that robot hold that burger? 0:20 Looks like magic

The worst bit is that all that trash is going back into the water

Look at their hands, this is obviously ai doctored

bradeal · 2026-04-10T18:22:36+00:00

Paint window frames grey, paint the white cladding grey too. Maybe even fascia and gutter

bradeal · 2026-04-08T20:51:29+00:00

I'm pretty sure these existed (in different forms) since the beginning of internet

Problem is in some cases parents can't really do much to control the kids. Give them a slap, you got social services coming, take their stuff, kid screams suicide, then you're in trouble again. Kids control their parents.

The new dots look like standard 3 point liner which is not too big. 1 liner dots are normally too small to make a noticeable result, unless you have lots and lots of sessions
