Which brands would you class as 'quality brands' .. going to look in Tool Station and Screwfix

I am buying new double sockets to replace the previous ones after a kitchen refurb, before the electrician comes tomorrow I thought it would be a simple task, just pick the colour and that would be it. I see there are SP and DP options for most, if not all sockets. I did a quick search on...

Do you have to end the kitchen worktop at the edge of the base units ? My wife suggested having a slight overhang at the end .. 100-150mm Would this look OK ?

That sounds a great idea .. never really thought of that approach.

I have a 500mm base unit that I need to fit into a 400mm space. What is the best way of doing this (it's still flat packed) Perhaps fit one side together as normal (bolts and dowels) but use the wee corner blocks, or would 1" x 1" timber run down the corners be better. thank you

Does anybody know where I can buy a replacement cover for a standard round bathroom light please ? this light here .. https://www.screwfix.com/p/circular-round-bathroom-ceiling-light-matt-white/43441

Do these alarms need a separate base, or do they come complete please ? I want the HW1-R and SW!-R alarms On the Toolstation website, bases are sold separately, meaning total would be .. £2.99 (x2) plus £16.49 plus 10.99 On Screwfix there is no mention of a base, and prices are £12.99 and...

Thanks .. I'll not be installing the lights, a friend is an electrician, so he'll be doing it.

I have a rental property, which was previously our home. It had an integrated dishwasher, which seems to me, just a dishwasher with a matching cabinet door screwed to the front. Anyway, this dishwasher is no longer working, but getting a new replacement door may be a problem, so I was...

In our kitchen, we have two fluorescent lights, each with a plastic diffuser. We are looking to replace these and have been advised that LED Batten lights are now 'the way to go' something like ...

Thank you for your reply I've decided just to paint the walls again using the same type and colour as before .. silk magnolia. I think I used the cheap Wilko paint the last time I painted the house (9 years ago)...

I have a house which i rented out, the tenancy for which ends tomorrow. Obviously, I'll have to paint the entire house. Regarding walls and ceilings, normally when painting I've just used Wilko paint, it's quite good value and there's a Wilko near to where I live. If I needed an extra coat, no...

Yes ... good idea

Yes .. good idea

Where can you get wicker baskets, for vegetable storage .. the ones that fit inside a conventional 500mm base unit. I've seen them online and they seem very expensive .. this sort of set up (BUT CHEAPER) http://www.greenheartkitchens.co.uk/wicker-basket-cabinet-500mm-wide I remember buying...

maybe a pull-out towel rail with space for trays ... good idea Don't know where we can get a matching door ... suppose any door would be OK, then i could perhaps take one other door and get some paint made up to colour match it

Good idea, but we are non drinkers

We are changing the kitchen around and will end up with a gap of about 300mm under the worktop but no door is available .. or I would have simply bought a narrow base unit I could buy one, but there wouldn't be a matching door What could I put here ? Any ideas thank you

I have rented out my old house for a few years, with the existing tenancy coming to an end soon The architraves and skirting boards were previously stained and varnished but maybe this is now a bit out of fashion All the walls were painted Magnolia. I think it would now be best to paint the...
