Fixings in basement

[R G]

Got a job on at the moment with 2 basement/cellar rooms and will be starting this area next week , I have advised customer that the sockets will be surface mounted with trunking and wall lights also fitted , the outer walls are obviously tanked and sealed with no signs of any dampness , the question is what type of fixing would anybody recommend for fittings on the outer walls , or would it be best to avoid these walls altogether.?.

Just got in and I stuck the patresses on yesterday and they are solid this morning so no problems at all , I had to do the same with some of the sticky back trunking as well , all is good , I noticed where the old service cable comes through the wall that there is what appears to be some salt or residue coming from around the cable , all is o/k on my part though , there is also an osmosis damp unit in use also in the basement , not sure if they are any good , the customer says he has no paperwork or guarantee for the tanking , although because there are no signs of damp at all , it is done well..


In case anyone wants to know , I used Thorseman adhesive from the wholesalers ..

That thoresman any good? Been staring at it for ages but never took the plunge.

I was a bit sceptical but yes it's o/k , it forms a ruberised pad , it's a strong hold

I have only two fetishes nowadays - Tidyboiler and Toyota MR2 MK2s.

The Fender Telecaster and Hi-Fi and a "lot of other things" including the Rare Toyota Celica Cabrio. have been relegated!!!

You tried CT1? Get through loads of it, it's useful for everything!

The Mr2 MK2 is absolutely gorgeous.

Full black leather upholstery and a very comfortable driving position which is like lying in a leather upholstered bath!

There's a trick to getting in & out of it but once you've mastered that it's easy.

It's got the Targa top so's when you take the 2 glass sections out you can get the wind in your hair and hear the howl from the exhausts if you care to wind it up.

The handling is just sublime and I've put a few of these Boy Racer types to shame with it!

I had a MK3 for a short time and didn't really get on with it - or maybe it didn't get on with me - and was pleased when the engine blew and I got rid of it.

The Celica is the oldest car - 20+ years - and I'm told is the most valuable because of its rarity - one of 5 or 6 in the country or so I've been told - but it's got issues with the roof which is canvas and has seen better days so it's always damp & musty inside the car.

I like it, but not enough to pour money into it which is what it needs for new roof & exhaust etc. so it's going to get traded back to its original owner in exchange for some work on the MR2.

My new friend is expanding foam, I don't know why I didn't use it before! You could try that!

Expanding foam is not a good idea ... IIRC it tends to get waterlogged over time!

Trust me ... if she wanted to she would soon break her way out of that!

Her strength is surpassed only by her breathtaking beauty.
