Whats behind a rooflight

Without the ingenious concept of a rooflight the vision of transforming unconventional space into a well lit property would be a daunting task, and in some cases an impossible option. For that reason, the sky light could be considered a highly influential building feature which has given the construction industry a solution to introducing natural light into a property. more...

VAT & The Listed Building for Contractors
Apologies if I am repeating anything that you have heard before, but the overall objective of the LPOC is the provision of information, the sharing of knowledge and providing assistance to fellow members. To that end, it is hoped that all professionals will gain a modicum of information about the intricacies of VAT, which can be applied whenever you are carrying out work on members’ properties. It is an unfortunate fact of life that the guidance provided by the VAT Office is sufficiently complex to make many contractors charge VAT, "just to be on the safe side". The end result is that the VAT Office reap a tangible financial benefit, every day, that they don’t deserve. Hard earned cash is being paid in VAT by householders - VAT that simply isn’t due.

Owners of Listed Buildings miss VAT relief
Owners of the 450,000 listed buildings throughout the UK are unaware that much of the building work undertaken on their homes should not attract VAT. The Listed Property Owners Club estimate that as much as £250 million of tax is being paid unnecessarily. Provided the local planning authority has given an owner permission to undertake work on their homes tasks such as changing the internal wall configuration, installing central heating for the first time, building an extension or adding a conservatory should all be charged as a zero rated service. Even underpinning should be classified as an extension (downwards !!) and is therefore zero-rated.

Damaging homes by choosing cheap
Today, homeowners can choose from fake lead products, pre-fabricated chimneys, cast iron effect rainwater systems and modern bulky rooflights claiming a ‘conservation style’. With budgets tight these types of products are obviously tempting to period property owners, particularly as many of the manufacturers also claim that these modern materials even offer much coveted environmental benefits. more...

Cast back to its origins
It seems ironic that a foundry in West Sussex would be supplying its period style cast iron radiators to America, home to some of the first cast iron radiators. But after scouring the country President Richard Mindler of the Quakertown Train Station Historical Society discovered that none of the foundries in the USA manufactured cast iron radiators in the style needed for the $800,000 refurbishment of the town’s Victorian train station built in 1902.

Cast Iron Radiators The Hottest Feature
The history of cast iron radiators can be traced right back to the early 18th century with America leading the way with their invention. Perhaps the earliest form of radiators as we know them today was invented by Joseph Nason and Robert Brigss (1863), their design used vertical wrought iron tubes screwed into a cast iron base. Soon after this Nelson H Bundy (1872) invented the ‘Bundy Loop’, a cast iron radiator which became increasingly popular and played an important role in the advancement in the birth of our modern day radiators.

Don’t lose your head

Paul Trace, Managing Director of Tuscan Foundry Products Ltd stresses the importance of preserving decorative rainwater features. Budgets for self-builds and renovations more often than not run dry by the time it comes to looking at the building’s rainwater system. This common mistake of neglecting the rainwater disposal can not only lead to structural deterioration especially with old buildings but is also a missed architectural opportunity to add value to a building.  more...
