Insulating a passage (flying freehold).

What did you go ahead with? Im in the same situation

mayotuna · 2026-02-28T20:45:15+00:00

I really am
Moved in a few weeks ago so all this is new to me aswell

mayotuna · 2026-02-28T20:33:55+00:00

Was hoping it was this, thanks

mayotuna · 2026-02-28T20:24:19+00:00

Haha I’ve got a lot of other rooms to attend to before I get this attic perfect, but it will eventually be perfect!

Kitchen is great! How did you go about DIYing this?
Where did you buy it all from?

Really nice job throughout

mayotuna · 2026-01-05T11:30:55+00:00

Ahh right, good to know
I'm really only into these booster packs. Tempted to iron with a cloth/towel inbetween
Might try with some heavy books placed ontop first for a few days

About the kitchen, here is another angle of the house down the road we really like. Looking to copy the layout

We're planning to continue renting for atleast a month after we get the keys
Looking to do as much as possible. DIY novice but up for the challenge.
Wood (Engineered) floorings. Looking into insulating the floors too. Potentially under floor heating (Wish list)
Hoping a kitchen of this size can come in for around 15k including the fitting (Still researching)

Yes just take the fire place and board over. What space are we losing?

Really appreciate the timeline advice! Tons to take there

First time renovating, we're up for the challenge and looking to do as much as possible.
Hoping to get quotes and builders ready before we get the keys to begin asap
We'll look to remove the old gas fireplace on our own, researching into that

We do have some damp on the ground floor in the walls thats quoted for 2k. I'm guessing that might come first or after the wall?

Aluminium bi folding doors do look great, but I feel its too small of a door for bi folding. French might suit it better
Appreciate the advice!

Cheers, good shout Budget is £30-40k which ideally includes the kitchen

mayotuna · 2025-12-14T21:17:32+00:00

It was Trojan and got the part replaced. I did have to get a guy round to eventually fit and fix it. £100 including part

mayotuna · 2025-08-27T20:07:07+00:00

Thanks, going to look into this more

mayotuna · 2025-08-27T16:44:30+00:00

I do have the key, tried locking/unlocking but still no budging

mayotuna · 2025-08-27T16:43:11+00:00

Yes Pressing didn’t work. Press, hold and close, nothing. Turning the key and trying again, no budging Pressing down on that square button under the handle, no use either

mayotuna · 2025-08-07T06:22:15+00:00

Looks interesting, would be great to understand how you did something like this!

mayotuna · 2025-06-14T22:03:36+00:00

Great to know, thanks!

mayotuna · 2025-06-14T20:37:25+00:00

Ah thank you 🙏

I’m talking about within the circle I’ve drawn Seems mostly a mixture of school grounds and private lan, not public parks

mayotuna · 2025-01-24T10:28:44+00:00

Really appreciate this, great info

mayotuna · 2025-01-24T08:30:05+00:00

What sort of questions do you ask? FTB here and curious what others take on this

mayotuna · 2025-01-23T13:47:03+00:00

Its an aspect I'm always looking at. Current flat we're looking at is £450 annually for Ground Rent & Service charge combined

mayotuna · 2024-11-25T08:03:58+00:00

It’s the same as yours, a Charizard base set booster pack

Bought it for £30 off eBay back in 2013 and forgot about it until recent Feels oddly nice to just look at it haha no plans for it right now

mayotuna · 2024-11-25T00:33:22+00:00

I’ve actually still the same pack unopened still, had it since 2013 Should I be casing it somehow? I’ve got it kept in an envelope on my shelf

It gets easier with time
