Thanks for the info. I thought it might be the light falling on the joins might show they up more. The flooring i have is beveloc where the joins are bevelled to make it look more like real wood, so the joints are purposly highlighted anyway. Sorry to hijack your thread nightfox, i would...

Yes I could cut the first board and last board but that still twice as many cuts than if I lay them the other way. I meant board direction which is also the same as the grain direction. I was surprised to see they recommended laying them in a certain direction, understandable in long narrow...

I've see a liquid sealant remover but never tried it. I've always just used a stanley knife and wallpaper scaper. I'm a laminate floor newbie but about to put my first floor down this weekend. I also have the same question regarding grain, the instructions say lay the boards length ways...

I get these calls all the time but being a systems anaylst I tend to ask some questions first How do they know my computer has errors? Why were they monitoring my PC and where did they get the phone number from? Why do they need remote access, just tell me what button to press? etc etc...

The TK14 look the same design as Franke and they are only £40 delivered. I would be tempted to go that route as well. My crosswater bathroom taps were about £250 but the bath tap is already getting tough to turn after 18 months of very little use.

If the reviews are bad I would say don't bother, especially with something as easy to damage in transit as a kitchen sink. I ordered a £160 chrome heated towel rail from inspired heating that had a big dent in when I opened the box, they were not interested. Why not get the sink from B&Q...

My first DIY attempt at a bathroom, just a basic rip out and replace really. Porcelain tiled floor with underfloor heating, digital timer in airing cupboard at back of shower. Radiator was moved from below window to behind the door by professionals whilst they were replacing central heating...
