thanks m8 hope this better.

Thanks for response, the link to my album should work, it does for me, or if you click on my profile, that should show the album. The waste is already in place underneath the boards, all connected up, it runs in the ceiling void below and is centred for the bath. I actually had the builders...

This is a re-post as I had an initial response, but no follow up. Please see pics on my album. I have had an extension built with an en-suite where I specified a vaulted ceiling and raised floor. The builders have supported a raised 18mm ply floor on a frame built with 6x2 timber, with a...

I have had an extension built with an en-suite where I specified a vaulted ceiling and raised floor. The builders have supported a raised 18mm ply floor on a frame built with 6x2 timber, with a purpose built space left for the bath to drop into. All supply(flexible) and waste in situ. The bath...

Is it ok to apply tanking straight onto a bond coat or should the plasterer skim it first. I know I should not tile straight onto the bond coat. plasterer is here now and i want to be sure...........

I am renovating a shower room, have removed the tiles from the shower area and am leaving the shower base in place as it is decent and solid. In removing tiles, it exposed a gap all round between wall and base up to 30mm deep. I intend to fill this with expandable foam and cut it to the same...

Many thanks, even with a solid concrete floor underneath? Regards and thanks for views.......

i have a 18mm floating engineered wooden floor in my lounge. Is there any reason i cannot have underlay and carpet fitted over it, apart from height issue? It is solidly glued together and has been down for at least 10 years. Would expansion be an issue?

Jerry, great thanks, srry I didn't notice you had replied until now. Thanks again for the advice.....

Thanks Jerry, input appreciated and I take your point on the 'individualistic' nature of the tiling. This is the tile I propose to use, pretty neutral colour, but I can see how it could date. http://www.worldsendtiles.co.uk/WET%20BROCHURE%20SMALL.pdf I was also interested if anyone has any...

I have a large exposed brick chimney breast (full room height x 3m wide) with an approx 650 h x 600w open fireplace with gas supply at floor level. The fire has been removed by previous owner. My plan is to raise the floor level of opening to leave a 'hole in the wall' effect, cover the...

Great tx, got the Bosch and it does the job very well. Thanks for all input..........................

Many thanks guys, I had my doubts about the Dremel, it does look bit lightweight. Any ideas best place to buy it ie cheapest, I know Screwfix don't sell it.....

I need to cut through 16mm engineered flooring neatly along the join to patch in about 1 sq metre. Are there circular cutting blades on a Dremel large enough to make a vertical cut at 90 degrees or would the body of the machine get in the way and force the blade off-vertical? Many thanks for...

Many thanks for your responses/suggestions guys, think go with the angle grinder and take it slowly, correct I will need to remove skirting from one or two sides in anycase... Tx again.

I have new hardwood framed windows and front door fitted as part of an extension refurb. I want to seal/treat them and would like a silk/satin finish. What would be the best product both interior and exterior? Any recommendations please? Many thanks.
