Hi Allan,

You must of rubbed off on me! We did the ceiling 6 weeks ago and I have been going to send the spacers back ever since.

I have been in contact with our local Mitre 10 and asked them about participating in the pilot scheme. They photocopied the letter and I'm still waiting to hear from them. I have called once but no one was there to help me.

We have been telling anyone that will listen how great your new SpeedEaves are.

Peter had his friends over that put the first half up the old way (which I must say took them about 7 hours trying to get it up and inline!), and they set aside 8 hrs to do it and we were all amazed that it was up and over within 3 hours! The only problems they encountered was the sheets they cut way too long!

I took lots of photos! But I accidently deleted them.

Your SpeedEaves will surely be a hit!

So we have people interested in them and are waiting. We gave the fellow from Brisbane details about which stores would be trialing them and he said he is definitely getting them for his next house he's going to do up so well done. I shall post the spacers back they wore a tad on a couple.

Any idea when SpeedEave is going to be available to finish the job?

Thanks so much once again
Chris Wilcox



"I have just inspected a large verandah area - 3 days in the covering and with 3 men. Your little trick is a wonderful invention. If Hardies and CSR don't want you, every chippie does. I suppose the job I just looked at is 40 x 3 metres and there is a hellava lot of white "H" badly aligned"

Our company recently installed the panel joiner produced by Coastal Innovations into one of our homes (Corder) at Harrington, Mid North Coast, NSW.

We understand the product is an advanced prototype. The inventors (Coastal Innovations) were on site to assist our carpenter for the first few hours. We are happy with the product and will use it in the future for our jobs. Our carpenter reported no difficulties to me, and had the following extra comments:

When (not if) the roof tiler puts his foot through the eave soffit, the fix is now very simple. The broken sheet is removed, a new sheet cut and nailed, and the old or a new piece of joiner is clicked into the gap.

The 7mm gap specified is not critical. The inventors had us changing gap width and making gaps out of parallel. No problem.

We had more flexibility in installing the eave sheet. Gaps could be filled later. The last sheet was as easy as the first. Installation of eave sheet alone is possible using the spacer provided by the inventor. It acts as a handle and support.

Long sheets in patio's will be far easier due to the easier handling characteristics of this method.

We repeal our acceptance of the product and wish the inventors well in their endeavours.
