Yes you can, just be careful of clogging. If your planning old timber, I would invest in a handheld metal detector. Nails are the death of planner blades 🤣 👍

@@mjsimo1 danke schön, auch der Metalldetektor ist ein guter Rat. Welche Marke und welchen Typ können Sie mir empfehlen? (Ich bin eine Holländerin.)

I dug out a small inspection hole in front of the slab to check the thickness of the slab. To be honest building control inspector didn't seem concerned just for a small dwarf wall, 4" slab is fine to build off with no issues.

Good question! 🤣

Thanks! 😃

Thanks again for watching, I have a few items on the shopping list but great advice thank you for sharing 👍

I did you just didn't see it 👍

Thank you for watching. No, just an application to your local building control to sign off the work, certs needed if you sell up. If it's a single skin detached garage then I would check under change of use. Still, full planning may not be required under self declaration with permitted development. Good luck 👍.

@@mjsimo1 thank you for taking the time to come back to me, that's really helpful and much appreciated.

Thank you for watching. You don't have to raise the floor, you can sit them on the ground or concrete with a plastic DPC sheeting underneath. I had to raise mind by 10/12" to match another floor and fitted two vents to allow for air flow is good practice.

Thanks for watching and sharing, I've had similar issues at times. Fingers crossed on this one, thought it was worth a try and we love a bargain 👍

@@johnboyginger Agree drills etc horrible. 20v tools great.

My first Parkside power tool, to cheap of a deal to pass by 🤣 Cordless tools make life easy 👍

@@mjsimo1 They are really top quality for diy use. As good as Bosch i think. First battery i had 2ah lasted 5 years!! Now got 2x4ah and 2x2ah. Cheap as chips ( when chips used to be cheap) 😄👍

Well spotted, make sure you wear your PPE peeps 👍

Thank you 👍

Thanks buddy 👍

You're very welcome

No worries

thanks for watching 👍

Hi, Sorry to hear that, I'm guessing you have a bad experience? My one is brilliant and no issues.

They are standard CLS timber studs 38mm x 68mm. 👍

Kind of you to say, thank you again for supporting my channel.

@@mjsimo1 it's my pleasure Mark, thanks for sharing your knowledge 👍

A combination of being out of shape and getting old doesn't help in this heat 🤣 Thanks for watching.

On a tight budget the new beams were a good option, thank you. Thanks for watching 👌

It's a good shout and I can understand your thinking. I didn't have an option in this case, thanks for watching, means a lot 👍

Good question, insulation will be fitted to the outside of the building... video coming soon 😁

Thank you and thanks for watching. 👍

Thank you for watching 👍

Thank you! Cheers!👍

Thanks for watching, it took me about 4 weeks to complete.

Hi, Thank you... it's a bloody nightmare lol🤣... biggest refurb I've ever done! Because I was selling that property you need a sign off cert from your local Building control, so that's what I done and it was fine no issues if you work with them.

@@mjsimo1 thank you Mark, much obliged. one last question please, did you need to dig out the concrete where the door was to put in a foundation, were the services under there (gas/electricity) was it difficult to avoid them? Cheers

​@@markdyballuksame question. Not sure how you assess if it's strong enough or need to dig it out

It seemed to me the easiest way to level up the floor and I was also matching the height of the hallway to have one continuous same level floor. Your right wouldn't have been an issue off the concrete floor. Thanks for watching 👍

Hi, no because my floor was raised which allowed insulation and DPC on top. Yes fully inspected and signed off by local building control, thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching 👍 DIY Kitchens are not too bad and third time we have used them, no complaints so far and really well made for the money.

@@mjsimo1 thanks Mark, appreciate your recommendation mate 👍

I did ask but planning was not required no, thank you for watching.

Thanks for the tip.

No my garage floor was level. Battens? do you mean floor joists, I had a raised floor to match the rest of the house and I had a bout 10/12 inches of space to work with to level up the 5" joists I used, not battens. Thanks for watching.

If costs are a factor like myself 100mm knauf roll insulation is fine to use in walls and roofs, building regs approved. Good luck with your build and thanks for watching 👍

Thanks for watching and glad it helped out a bit. They hover around £300 mark, so not to bad a price. Like yourself I didn't want to spend too much, it's a great useful little machine, a tad on the noisy side so get some good ear defenders.

When you're planning timber you pass the wood back over the top of the machine and rollers aid that process.

Thank you! Cheers!

Thank you! Cheers!

Hi, thanks for watching. It's a plastic hood screwed to the rear with two thumb turns, easy on & off. Extraction wise I have one of these type www.screwfix.com/p/scheppach-dc100-215m-hr-electric-l-class-dust-extractor-230v/432xg it does the job for small jobs most of the time. But it can get full quickly if planning a lot of timber and if shaving are large yes rear outlet can get clogged, so I just leave it off and sweep mess up afterwards, use a good mask?

Hi, yes cost wise for what it is, I like it and does the job well. It's a bit of a beast, it's my first petrol strimmer so can't really compare to others sorry. Thanks for watching 👍

I have two of these machines one is about 5 years old still going strong and had a lot of hard work plastic's is cheap and fuel tank top if you don't put on properly it will leak fuel out and strimmers head cheap plastic so will brack avengely I put Oregon head on my one and great and only other thing had to change was fuel line when not in yeas empty tank of fuel and run machine to empty carb and it should start every time you need it and I run my machine fuel mix 25:1 but up to you

I wish, my brick laying skills are good enough 🤣

Your right might have been easier, didn't really think of it at the time.

Wood was all treated with a timber preserver, wood is not outside, vapour barrier used and was covered over. All signed off by local building control. What video did you watch?

Yes, your correct it does and there was a second DMP sheeting under the joist, to difficult to video that bit. It was all signed off by building control.

@@mjsimo1 cool thanks. im doing a similar thing soon and i'm trying to make sure i'm doing it right

Yes, great little low cost machine. I use it at least twice a week. Downside is, it's a bit noisy.

@@mjsimo1 I believe all thickness planers are noisie. I've been looking at this one and one of the dewalt ones. Thank you for getting back to me.

Standard regs depth 800mm for water mains

Thank your so kind....

DPM would go on top of the insulation and under the plasterboard warm side for walls and under/behind for floors. Vapour barrier that allows airflow is best used behind if needed cold side on external walls. Damp or condensation flash point is created when the cold & heat meet. I mostly had internal walls, so not needed.
