    Nice video, not always easy to find tradesmen who do quality work like you guy's.
    Thank you.

    Thanks for those tips guys, I am extending new composite decking onto an existing area and those tips will help massively. Just wish the guy who installed the existing decking knew how to do it properly and hadn't used a nail gun to secure the corner cuts ☹

    Guys an amazing video. You’ve inspired me to build my own garden office. I’m building right beside the boundary fence. I had planned on fully fabricating the wall closest before standing it up, but the more I watch you, I might just have to beg the neighbour to allow me to take the fence down. One question, do you know the colour of this cladding? Thanks for these phenomenal videos!

    I do t like this cladding, I use Eurocell much nicer and neater, you don’t have any screws showing, you simply screw the corners on first, then slide the cladding in behind both corners, looks so much more professional and far more stream line, my clients wouldn’t have screws showing colour coded or not 😂🤷‍♂️

  • @Banddave1
    @Banddave1 Před 11 měsíci +1

    What precise tradesmen, I shouldn't watch these as I tend to critercise trades men and wonder why they aren't doing it like the video. Question if applying direct to block work do you use vapor barrier? What is the make of the cladding? And where are you from.....
    Thanks video was informative

    how does the vertical ventilation work after sealing the topmost cladding piece? where does the air go?

    • @homeimprovements
      @homeimprovements  Před 10 měsíci

      Up into the soffit that’s also vented on the ends 😊

    • @Dontmindme__
      @Dontmindme__ Před 6 měsíci

      It can’t flow into the soffit as that’s sealed? Been told composite doesn’t need a gap at the top but a lot of manufacturers say to leave one. See these boys blocking the gap, who knows what’s right lol

  • @crispinT9
    @crispinT9 Před 4 měsíci

    You guys drill through the first piece directly into the batten. Are starter clips not needed? If you screw through the board how does it then expand?

  • @michaelwaite4367
    @michaelwaite4367 Před 9 měsíci +1

    Good evening, do you have to have the gap in between the cladding and the membrane? Could you not put 25mm celotex or other insulation to help keep the building warm ?

    • @briancunningham1120
      @briancunningham1120 Před 7 měsíci

      Yes they should have Bug Screen at the top and at the bottom,
      Also a starter piece to hold the bottom of the first piece of siding,
      Also a drip edge needs to be attached at the bottom to shed any rain water etc. away from the building,
      The same applies above all windows and doors,
      The corner trim pieces should not be fastened on both sides
      only fasten one side, this will allow for expansion and contraction as you mentioned at the start of the vidio,
      There needs to be good quality cualking applied at the door frame, prior to the instalation of the corner trim pieces, this will provide a water proof protection in this area to combat rain blowing into this joint,
      Just a few items which the suppliers of this product should have mentioned to you guys, but this looks like a B & Q supplied product,
      Stay away from the big box stores fellas, your work is fine its the product and the suppliers we all must try to avoid, these kind of so called building yards are a Scurge , almost as bad as the on- line shopping 😀😂
