Diary detailing the trials and tribulations of a Self Build Project in Pantymwyn, North Wales. The build is a timber frame construction and will incorporate high levels of insulation - Air Tightness Membrane - MVHRHP System - Energy efficient lighting etc and so will be some way towards a 'LOW ENERGY' House.

Guttering - Lindab
A busy weekend, saw all the guttering installed (downpipes will be put up after the scaffolding is down). We went for Lindab Galvanised Steel in the end, and very pleased with it - it looks nice against the white fascia boards - and it is very good quality stuff. We would say it is about 33% more expensive than the plastic stuff, but should last considerably longer and do a much better job. It is obviously more difficult to install - you have to cut it with hacksaw/tin snips, and to be honest it can be a struggle - but it is most definately worth it.
