    My bathroom

    Should I take the floor tiles up before tiling? - yes Should I unscrew the toilet and tile under it rather than cut the tiles? - yes The room is only about 6ft by 6ft, where do you start to tile from? - Find the centre point of the floor and dry lay them moving out from there...

    Where can I get a tree trunk from?

    My brother is after quite a large diameter tree trunk that can be laid on it's side and used as a garden seat. Where on earth could I get one from? Short of scouring the countryside after these gails!!?

    Any suggestions where to get engineered floorboards?

    In your experience is this a better quality product? Or should I say a noticeable better product than the floors2go cheapy. http://www.flooringsupplies.co.uk/productdetails.cfm?productID=2843&type=realwood&cat=

    Any suggestions where to get engineered floorboards?

    hmm, decisions, decision. I don't think paying up to £20m is out of the question, there's just so many suppliers it's a bit of a minefield.

    Any suggestions where to get engineered floorboards?

    ok, I'll try to be more specific. Will it be reasonably easy to lay? My dad who is a carpenter will be doing it. Or will it be a real pig. Will it look cheap? I don't have any experience of engineered boards so I don't really know what can go wrong with a cheap product as apposed to an...

    Finishing walnut

    2 questions - bathroom paint? vibrant colours

    Hi, this is a two fold question. I've been reading about the debate whether to use bathroom paint or not - this hasn't led me to any conclusions! I'll be painting a small bathroom - approx 2 x 2 metres. It has a shower cubicle it it which will be used most days. It will have a standard...

    Acrylic shower tray - urgent

    yeah, I kinda made that decision anyway, I got it at a good price, so I've paid for it. Will see what it is like. If it's rubbish I'll buy a new stone resin pentangle tray to replace it. Would it be possible to flip an acrylic tray over, and fill it with cement (or suchlike) to make it more...

    Acrylic shower tray - urgent

    I'm a little worried.... I bought a shower enclosure and tray off a well known auction site and upon winning the auction thought I should check whether the shower tray is acrylic or stone resin. Funnily enough it is acrylic. Firstly, are these ok, or are the generally rubbish. If they are...

    Finishing walnut

    Jason, have you used the streamline spacers? I've asked for a quote, but have had no reply yet. How much do you think it would cost to get 8 of these each of approximately 150mm length? I have no concept of whether these are expensive fixtures or not! Got a quote for glass - two pieces of...
