    Ever been stuck in one of those big revolving doors?
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    I just wanted to see how easy it was to get another bite from Stuart

    Admittedly our apprentice Carpenter from earlier may have not read as thoroughly as he should have, but geese did you have to raost him so much??

    Poor guy thought he was helping out - and don't we all?

    Just thought of something else.....

    What do you do if you've used noise tape and self expansion hole drilling screws and the polycarb still creaks and crackles?

    Quite seriously this is a gem of a thread. I've printed it off so the family can have a laugh.

    Cheers,
    Doc.

    Hi, I'm new to this thread and yes Doc the answer is take off the roof and enjoy the elements. If you don't like that leave the roof and have louder parties.Steve

    Possibly.

    The sheets need to be able to expand & contract with changes in temperature. The noise stop tape allows this by providing a lowish friction surface (compared to a painted surface) for the sheets to slightly move across the surface of the battens.

    The same need for expansion is the reason why the clearance holes are needed around the screws, to be able to move with minimal restriction.

    Better have a chat to your builder. or buy the correct screws and drill out the holes & install.


    Cheers....................Sean
