New loft Start To finish Progress

right, then you going to paint with fence/shed paint arnt you.............what roof are you doing, wood and felt ?

yer wood and felt

refelted mine last year , green mineral, bitumen glue and felt nails camer to £100..........but at least its done for a few years.

yer my dad got felt lol

yb section sprung a leak last year chris, id just got them over yb sickness then the roof started leaking................well leaking is an understatement it might as well had no roof on, lol eventually gotr it sorted but as you know damp conditions dont help for conditioning pigeons does it.

my birds seem to love rain carnt get them in when its pissing down haha

yes i think they all do chris, ive had it before when they are due to come in and it p***`s it down................i have to stand and get soaked while they decide to come in as there are too many cats/hawks about to leave them

looking good chris

looks smart mate but you should be doing it quicker with woody as foreman lol chris dont forget yer timbers where the sheets of ply join as yer loft will get soaked every rainfall m8 but its coming along nicely take yer time and do it nice you be glad you did in the end atb with the rest of the project

yer i no mate im add them in tomoz total forgot them haha

looking good chris but as darren says you need them joints doing or it will piss in but its looking good just take your time its best to get it right now than mess about doing things after although we do all make changes but the last thing you want is a wet loft cus if it dose get wet forget racing

im get some sealer from work anyways and run that into all the joints
