    You'll need to notch them out a bit more to get that 4"soil pipe in!!

    Sent from my mobile communicating device thing using Talkatap.

  4. When you realise there’s now more notch than joist. Surely you stop chiselling?

  7. Why have you done that? Are you some sort of cowboy?

  8. He had to get those rad pipes in somehow.
     
  9. Simple really. I walked around the house and wasn’t able to find anything requiring me to suck through my teeth, or tut or even give a slight eye roll.

    I can’t have that. So I nipped to the van and got the chop saw out a bit sharpish.

    thankfully I’ve stretched this boiler service to three days now. That was a close call. I nearly only got paid for what they’d booked me for.

  10. Why you notched the joists out then run the Hep tube under them.

    anyway no matter just foam it up… be fine.

  12. I couldn’t wedge it between the joists

  13. Ah, well. At least you've got a few more pairs of womens' knickers in your tool box :thumbsup:

  14. I don’t put my tool anywhere near women’s knickers.

    I wear them on my head.

    Blimey O Reilly! I’ve seen a house with maybe one joist notched like that, not the whole run! :eek:
     
  18. I'd be more upset by the lack of mortar in the brickwork.
     
  19. :eek:
     
  20. Maybe it's like a dry stone wall?

    Bit of expanding foam in that, it'll be fine :thumbsup:
