Thanks for your reply Jim, we've been looking at all of our options. I might clean up a section, see how it looks and decide from there. If we were to replaster, would it have to be with lime plaster to allow the breathability? And how does this work with actually painting over the plaster...

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone could offer some advice please? I’ve stripped and exposed a fireplace and wall in the living room of our 1897 terraced house and would like to make a feature of the original lime-mortared stone and brickwork ready for the installation of a log stove. Initially I...

Hope this is the correct place for this question. Please have a look at the photos on my Flickr page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jonxlr8/ Found some white 20mm paper backed board with what looks like coarse hairs embedded through it. This was hiding behind a plasterboard wall...

Looks like a kitchen now. Franke sink & tap. Hotpoint hob and oven from Clearance Comet. Turboair hood. Splashback from alcoeng.

Worktop cut and test fit

After a short break... Electrics done and base units in. Marked out for wall units. The pipes will be moved up to accomodate when the hob gets connected up

I had a good quick response by email yesterday: So I phoned back today to find out the grade and warranty. They use 430 grade stainless which I understand is used for kitchen sinks and the like so that's a good sign and they come with a 12-months guarantee. Think I might order one...

I'm looking for a 600 x 800 stainless steel splashback for my kitchen build. I was going to get a Screwfix one as they come recommended but they only do a 750 or 900 tall and I don't really want to pay extra for a 900 just to cut it down. I've emailed alcoeng to find out what grade stainless...

The old tiles were stuck on well enough so can't see a major issue. I've picked up a length of rail from the Howdens in town for £6-£7 I'll need to check when I get in but I'm not sure the screws holding the existing wall units up are actually going into the solid wall behind, seemed to me...

Good find, I'll be ordering some soon. I was wondering about how the back of the cabinet would fit against the wall with the rail sticking out. I suppose I could either cut a notch out of the cabinet or cut the rail so it fit just inside the back of the cabinet between the ends. There's only...

Electrician coming round tomorrow hopefully so I can then fit the units on the other side of the room. All cabinets built now apart from the drawer unit. Good shout about that rail system John, wasn't aware of them. I did leave the old brackets on the wall hoping they may be in the right...
