    Destruction of a surface by frost, heat, corrosion, or mechanical causes. Concrete exposed to intense heat may spall explosively. Expansion and contraction of the concrete as well as vaporising moisture contained in the concrete contribute to this effect.

    Don't let them deter you red. My first DIY job on this house was to build a conservatory, though I have to be honest I wouldn't do it again - I'd sooner pay someone. Though in saying that it stayed up for 10 years until it burnt down just over a year ago, and was subsequently replaced by the insurance company, nice people Just do what you are doing, lots of homework first
    My master plan is to live forever..... going to plan so far
    Despite the cost of living, it's still very popular.
    No good deed goes unpunished....
