Heat rising

Bruce the plumber pressure checked his pipes by blowing down them, Womble assured us that Bruce was full of hot air and this was probably the most-fail safe way to test the pipes prior to pouring concrete over 80sqm of flooring covered in expensive pipes and insulation. We'll soon know if this was a funny joke or a very unfunny one. Stuart Bryant (& Co) prepared the area with insulation throughout and then arranged for Martin to lay the pipes and B&H to come in to pour the self leveling floor screed. The process is really very quick and looks quite simple but it is the kind of process where the slightest error can be a major problem with quick setting times and bendy plastic with a mind of its own.
