ok lots of different suggestions, thanks all, ill try to remember to upload a photo of how it looks in about 2 weeks .

OK hisense dish washing machine I foundhas big gap bottom 15cm at front, I guess can add wood behind the plinth to secure the side panels and avoid floor fixings. Not likely to service tye machine that often.

I just tiled it, not ruining the floor.

Can't drill I to floor, maybe drill to back wall though.

Hi, having new kitchen in my garage conversion... On left hand side will he integrated dishwasher, ajd then fresh air to it's left as a walkway.. The sink will be to the right. What makes the worktop secure? I ask as bar one end panel c18mm, and a thin back panel, it all looks not very rigid...

Thanks

Sounds like I was not far off, maybe bit overkill the thickness of the wood. There will be a heavy belfast sink there, definitely want to support around the back of that.

Hello All We have a 700mm worktop deopth (2.4m length) on order, idea is we get an extra 10cm at the back to put stuff behind sink ect. If the base units are standard depth (wickes), so 570mm, and there is a 20mm overhand at the front, that is 590mm... which then means we end up with c110mm at...

Hi Now I may be being a bit daft here... I was going to have two external solid walls chased inside for cable runs. Instead of me renting chaser tool ect I asked electrician and he said to, 'fit all the battons first and he can chase around them.' It is c21 metres he needs to chase overall...

Actually screed guys said use a 120 groit sandpaper on top, whichb I did then swotchen to simply my hand, or short brush, akd go figure all the stuff came off, the cracks were all surface deep, now gone :) One issue was where excess water settled slight discolouration and slower to dry, but...

Hi all Had liquid cement with fibres screed poured on Wednesday this week. Avoided walking on it and all doors ect closed for 2 days, then fx followed advice to now get lots of fresh air moving over it. Dpm, insulation, vapour layer, then this layer, c50mm. I walked on it earlier, and very...
