When not to do DIY
If using a decent felt with modified bitumen, no problem.
However normal cheap felt is brittle at today'slow temperatures, and if using cold bitumen adhesive that'll be slow to cure. |

The fact it's snowing only adds to my pleasure. I hope you offered the chaps a nice hot mug of tea. -- bof at bof dot me dot uk |

Good Lord - you allow other people to specify how you read news? How odd. I just don't get all up-tight about something that doesnt worry me. I can read it with ease so what's the problem. It's the toss-pots that don't know how to snip text that bug me. I just don't read their posts.

Hmm, the chaps who installed my dbl glazing could drink some tea !
Still, 7 windows installed in half a day by a 4 man team was pretty impressive work. Hope they stay in for the warranty period ! Cheers, Paul. |
