Thoroughly enjoyed that mark as I always say completely fearless and just crack on . The job looking really nice too. Just watched KHM mikes diy sos video from our house where Mike plasters while you smoke and drink tea 🫖🤣🤣🤣.
This is an interesting job especially when it seems there is more than one way to do a flat roof. A man of many talents Mark, where would we be without youtube. 😅
@@nigel1964 🤣 cheers nigel.o yes I been using TH-cam for the information I need for a long time firs kitchen I did I had TH-cam playing wile I cut the worktops lol 👍👍
When we are doing a big area we’ve started using a 4 inch drainage pipe to roll the rubber out, much easier than solving it back ect Good video as usual mate
Insulation in the lantern upstand, then vapour barrier (avcl) over the insulation, then plasterboard over that once lantern is on. Hope you've managed to keep osb dry before the epdm is glued👍
Nice one will do that .yes mate we put the rubber down other week before it got bad .then went on another job last week going back this week sometime the customer been putting the lantern up .so I will video it next week and finish the next video off 👍👍👍
Yere tim did that I keep forgetting to put it in videos think I got a couple of older videos were I do it .saying that my blower is crap no hardly blows lol .need a new one 👍👍👍
I have yet to see any proper data about the difference in thermal bridging between screws & the plastic fixings. I mean the screw head is like 12mm & you end up drilling more of the insulation out to use the plastic fixings. Plus you end up ordering them plastic things & they are silly money for what they are.
Carpenter & Joiner for 37yrs here, we do quite a few warm decks & we just use 1000guage vapour barrier & building inspectors never had any issues with that. We dont use the plastic fixings either & tbh they are a PITA to get hold of & are stupid price for what they are, we just use long countersunk screws (not timber locks) but do counterbore the heads of the long screws a bit. The price of the adhesive vapour barriers is just mental when you got a large flat roof & your puncture it anyway when fixing top layer on top of PIR insulation. When you do the next one work out the top height of your joists & brick up to that height & cut joists to back of inside cavity & PIR in-between all the joists. if you don't do it this way & it's a large flat roof you can end up with fascias 500mm+ which just looks stupid plus you can't get fascia that wide as most of the time not got parapets either side. But you done a really good job compared to a lot of people especially as you said it was your first one 🙂
@@WombleUK nice one mate that's for the info definitely a good idea with having it back and stopping large fascia boards love it .yes we did end up counter sinking the screws first it was hard to pull them in without.some grate tips for me for next time 👍👍👍
@WombleUK I normally do use foil .but this has foil on top that's why I used it .you gain pritty much nothing with the foil anyway sure it will be fine 👍👍
@@markhep TBH some of the new Part L regs are WTF. We had building inspector tell us we supposed to now use vapour barrier on the inside of loft conversions but they could give any details on what product it should be or how it's supposed to be done LOL The part L insulation regs are just mental amounts of insulation.

It’s amazing how much you can get done in 17 minutes 💪🏼
@@aussie8114 🤣if only that was True lol👍👍👍
Nice one Mark. Nowt like sticky bits on job. Always risky roofing with weather as its been. Stay well.
🤣Cheers mate yere .just glad the frost didn't get to it would have been stuffed this week 👍👍👍
Great entertaining video Mark, nobody gets them down without the creases, so no fear there.
Cheers mike I don't really believe in that vapour barrier crap just seems like adding money to job .I am sure you could put something cheaper in there

Nice I like that idea would be great on a garage roof or something with a long run 👍👍👍
Cheers Mark, keep them coming 😂
@@Brynben1 👍👍will do mate 👍👍😉
looking good.well done.

Im sure you blew out the holes before fixing wirh resin. Otherwise the resin bonds to dust and is useless.
Worth reminding people 😉

I think it is called thermal los with normal acrews but with the large roof light thevlos shouldn't be that bad .
@@DIY_Dad_Pat yere that's what I was thinking them screws with the plastic sleeves make the rubber stick up too 👍👍😉

In the Midlands that adhesive is called epoxy up north it's call Eeeeeepoxy.

m8 you shoulnt use the barrier to seal the insulation that only bonds to primed stuff osb thats not primed it will fail to seal
@@georgeroberts6457 ii put it on because that tin foil stuff is even worse lol isn't it they pritty tight up anyway should be fine 👍
I am sure the regs say it should be foil tape though & once you get the hang of peeling the ends of it it sticks fine.
