Building Materials and Construction Technology
hapazard: [citat] It could actually look quite okay if you choose a more substantial molding. It all depends on what look you're after. If you want a more delicate molding, it might be better to remove the upper part of the paneling, it should be relatively easy to take the lengths with a circular saw, the corners are trickier of course, but an opportunity to make use of a multi-tool?
Oscarjos: [citat] Hi Karl-Ove. Thanks for your answer, the studs in the wall are 45x70.
Jonatan79: it is treated with cupeinol and looks fresh. Just keep an eye on it, it's harmless as long as it doesn’t start to get damp and emit a smell.
Arvid14sverige: Not agreed on anything at all, the main thing is that it's done correctly. @plåtrickard
lordi: [citat] That's how it works in many crafts, when one starts as an apprentice. In many other professions, it's a utopia; you have to rely on other ways to ensure quality. Of course, you must keep track of your employees' skills; no one has claimed otherwise. I gather from your text that you are careful with your employees, so if you work with asbestos removal, it's a company like yours one would
BirgitS: It probably depends on how much the floor is worn, but applying new oil/wax once a year maybe. Here you can find what Kährs writes about maintenance and care: https://www.kahrs.com/sv-se/hur-gor-man/underhall-och-skotsel-av-parkettgolv/
Henok12: [citat] Exactly 🤙🏻 I've been running the Wood’s dehumidifier for a while now, and it's showing 55. That's pretty dry from what I understand. Regarding the metal straps... I'm going to have horizontal paneling inside, so I needed something to hold the vapor barrier in place when we sprayed the insulation. I honestly think the dew point was simply reached on the plastic. Cold floor meets
AG A: [citat] The person who had the pool covered seems satisfied with the work. If a floor had been laid directly on what we see in the picture, he/she would not have been satisfied. Even if it hadn't collapsed, it would still be extremely unstable. Therefore, I assume that what we see is not the finished framework.
Krabbeluring: It looks like there is suspicious black adhesive under the actual felt paper. That sets off some alarm bells. Asbestos was also present in lighter types of contact adhesives. Relatively bound in the material regardless. The felt paper itself I believe is very unlikely to have had asbestos in it. As the name suggests, it consists of pressed felt, used to prevent squeaking and leveling of the
Jonatan79: [citat] Hehe, sorry couldn't help myself. Yes, it will work fine.
Dilato: [citat] I agree with the inspector, most houses like that built in the 50/60s here in Skåne have concrete slabs. Tape a mobile phone to a long stick so you can film yourself.
fribygg: [citat] You could try easycover or something similar directly on the OSB if you are that tight with the millimeters.
Josefined: [citat] It is an extension in the ceiling, hence the plastic, as I understand it.
Daniel Ramstedt: I want to seal the terrace, they are between wood and plastic, 1mm to 2mm. Is outdoor sealant the best, or which one is it?
BirgitS: I haven't done it myself but I guess a skirting board with ventilation is needed. If you have a cornice with ventilation or just leave it open I don't know.
Alexn72: [citat] Maybe that's a bit of the problem. Was it Biltema duct tape, Ahsell duct tape, 3M duct tape, or just a silvery tape... A safer bet might be to choose a tape that at least claims to work.
Testarn: It's just about building a frame and attaching a gypsum board that is painted or wallpapered like the rest of the wall, right? For example, you can mount them with rampamuff in the frame and then have nice screw heads in the hatch. You can place a small cover strip over the joint if it's difficult to get a neat finish, painted in the same color as the skirting or one of the colors in the
boihus123: How about the Luftspalten, I wonder? [bild]
Mikael Wallin: The studs will be removed as soon as I've finished tearing down the speech, time is not sufficient to the extent I wish. Since the insulation has been filled with mouse pee and other gross stuff, we plan to tear everything down inside and sand the floor before building new walls. This way everything will be easily accessible for a potential plastering. However, I'm leaning towards skipping the
z_bumbi: I would remove the webbing and then paint the post and the visible beam in some fun color. The alternative is to paint leaf vines and then cover it with climbing plants (real or plastic).
boihus123: [citat] Good input, yes it is a risky construction and there will be problems 10+ years,
Anonymiserad 405730: [citat] But they might have made a larger hole at the bottom perhaps? This is nothing to worry about... When there is snow against the foundation, the snow clearly melts away around the house, at least on my house...
namnbyte: I think the end grain looks like birch, but the underside resembles the grayish ash. Are you completely sure it hasn't been treated underneath?
Anonymiserad 405730: [citat] We use 8-10 mm even though we use a hammer tacker.. Stainless isn't necessary.. 4mm is very short; if it's windy the day you install, it'll likely come loose for you…
Dr Benz: Who renovated the bathroom? How do you know that something underneath needs to be replaced?
