Hello,

New to this site, and there seems there a lot of useful advice out.

I've recently had a upstairs bedroom converted to a large bathroom. All going smoothly, apart from the fact that all the waste pipes are visible.

The pipes all run along a single wall.

Although the builder kindly put in some MDF boxing, it didn't really suit the look of the bathroom I was going for. :rolleyes:

Thought I'd take the plunge and box them in myself using something veneered in oak or rosewood. My plan is to cut the edges at 45 degrees to get a nice join (rather than using edging tape which seems to be a bit fiddly).

My question is what would be the best veneered product to use. Ply, blockboard or MDF? I thought 18mm would be a good thickness to use or would that be overkill? I think I would prefer double side veneer.

Any ideas, suggestions or recommendations would be welcome.

Thanks
