    Are these good brands?

    It came in the frame though! Ready to fit! AWM Doncaster said they could do a 4 day order to delivery window and they were £285 cheaper than anywhere else!

    I brought it but a builder friend fitted it! We had to build a frame/ Georgian surround to fit in the hole! It weighed something daft like 58kg and my 2 year old can open and shut it easily now it’s hung! Even came with a manual to fit and adjust hinges etc!

    Johnstones Ecological Acrylic Satin Paint

    In all fairness, the temperature definitely isn’t helping! But still it’s a massive pain it the arse! Saying that, the more coats I throw at it, the better it looks!

    Johnstones Ecological Acrylic Satin Paint

    Hi all, I’ve been told to use Johnstones Ecological Acrylic Satin Paint to finish an external door surround off! Is it just a case of bad work man or is this stuff genuinely a bitch to work with?? It feels as if I’m pushing glue around and it’s always showing brush marks! I’m now on my 3rd...

    Door-stop doors

    Hi all, I trust you I had a good Christmas and new year! Does anyone have any light to throw on the brand door-stop doors? The price is amazing with a 5-10 day turn around. Looking on google the reviews are not kind! Has anyone had any first hand experience with them? Aaron

    UPVC French Doors

    I got it down to £3000 with the compromise of upvc as apposed to aluminium! One fitter said "I'd rather have AIDS than fit a upvc bifold!" I had to chuckle!
