Hi Ruth, a few concerns incase others follow what you have done with your build. 1) your height looks to be way over the 2.5m allowed here in the UK, i assume you applied for planning permission as its so close to the boundary. 2) You have used EPS insulation, which is making direct contact with the mains cabling. Polystyrene WILL react with the PVC Cable insulation over time and break it down to the bare copper (tripping/fire). You should have run the cables inside of a conduit to protect it from the EPS insulation sheets. Only PIR insulation or fiberglass can come into direct contact with the cables. 3) You should have used breather membrane to cover the wall sheeting, and not that DPM sheet. Yeah the DPM sheet will stop 100% of the water making its way inside, but it will also trap moisture between it and the sheeting causing mold growth and rot from condensation. Breather membrane stops water coming in from outside, whilst also allowing water vapour from inside to go through it and not be trapped inside the building fabric. The buildup should have been OSB/PLY, Breather membrane, slate battens vertically, horizontal cladding. Allowing a 25mm air gap to allow the cladding to dry and also for any water that makes its way past the cladding to run down and not soak into the cladding boards.

Love the workshop. Word of warning from personal experience: that padlock hasp is absolutely useless. Had one on my shed, thieves cropped it easily. They dont go at the padlock, just the hasp. Same one as you, properly fitted like you. They chomped through it, because they are wide but relatively thin. Look into something that covers the padlock shackle, like they use on containers or BT roadside green boxes. Heavy duty steel is your friend. Share and enjoy X

Looks great! I’m a contractor and have a lot of projects during the winter. We use propane construction heater. It’s mobile and the guys appreciate the heat. It helps dry everything out.

It was my understanding that if a shed was closer than 2m to a boundary then the maximum height allowed was 2.5m, but yours looks much higher than that especially with the higher apex (compared to furze’s).

Very good. Thank You.

Looking forward to seeing more! Watching from Pennsylvania in the U.S.

Was literally reading through the comments to see if anyone asked this question. ..."must not exceed 2.5m to the eaves.." which this would be fine if it wasn't within 2m of the boundary then that 2.5m proclaims to the overall height. Planning permission would be required in this case but can always be sought after the fact if it wasn't already. Sweet workshop though

Nice shed and great build but I would avoid using polythene sheeting between the timber cladding and plywood. You would be better with a breather membrane as it stops water getting inside but allows any moisture in plywood or from the inside to pass to the outside. At the moment any moisture in the plywood outer layer is trapped and could cause it to rot. Also worth adding some vertical battons to keep a cavity between the feather boards and membrane. Not meaning to sound extreme but thought it might be worth knowing if you ever do it again.

Cracking workshop! Wish I had space for something like that, just have a big shed full of bikes, mower and kids toys 🤣. Loved following the build on Instagram and now seeing it all in one go. Keep up the good work.

Great workshop, I'm really jealous about the ceiling height! Building in winter looks like a pain, good thing you had some extra hands to help out. And good planning (or luck?) that you got the roof on before the snow - neighbors to my parents built a house this winter, and they where shoveling snow out the front door... 😅

I was seeing shades of Colin's "Solid Shed" on this, then sure enough at 1 minute in you confirmed it! You didn't go a posh slate roof though... haha. I used corrugated steel on mine, which is the Australian tradition. (Even on houses!)

Love the vid and your enthusiasm. Trying to figure one out for myself and wondered if you could help answer a couple of questions. 1. It looks higher than 2.5m, was it easy getting planning permission? 2. Did you insulate them concrete slab, if so what with? 3. Did you use a vapour barrier on the inside before adding the ply? Thanks Marc

@danielhooker4957

Жыл бұрын

Yes your right, I didn't see a vapour barrier put on the inside so there could be moisture issues penetrating the insulation in cold weather with heating on, plus the membrane under the cladding was non breathable looking stuff, supposed to be breathable membrane on this side from what I have researched

Nicely done , great space ! I was a bit worried seeing the polystyrene sheets going in next to what looked like PVC cables. I have a feeling that this combo can lead to the cable sheath breaking down. Hope I'm talking rubbish.

@ep91monster

3 жыл бұрын

I mentioned the exact same thing. Polystyrene cannot come into direct contact with pvc coated cables as it will slowly melt through the insulation on them. Only closed cell pir's are safe to touch them

If I could make one suggestion. Put a coat of two part flooring epoxy on the bench tops. It’s tough and makes cleaning up a spill easy. I’ve subbed to watch your progress. Cheers. 😀👍

Splendid work! I've had building a workshop on my mind a very long time. Did you use treated wood on the outside? Thanks!

Really great job. Thanks for this video. I want to ask about the concrete base. Do you had to ask about this your local council for permission? I want start build workshop but it will be like workshop + greenhouse combination.
