Does anyone know the difference between these 2 showers? Have an Atom in main bathroom and was going to get the same for ensuite as have been happy with it for the past 10 years. However I saw the APT and cant tell what the difference is from the descriptions and it seems slightly cheaper Thanks

I ended up getting a merlyn tray and merlyn enclosure so all sorted, thanks

I've found these both on heat and plumb which should be compatible https://www.heatandplumb.com/acatalog/aqualux-shine-8-shower-enclosure-1199211 https://www.heatandplumb.com/acatalog/premier-pearlstone-offset-quadrant-shower-tray-ntp111 The tray is the same as the one on eBay as far as I...

Thanks, the dimensions are really restricting me. I might have to sacrifice some shower space and go for 800 x 1000 or 900 x 900. The tray is one thing, then finding a 900x1000 enclosure seems a challenge also!

Thanks all, would this brand be better known and a stone resin tray? https://www.victorianplumbing.co.uk/aurora-stone-rh-offset-quadrant-shower-tray TBH it looks like exactly the same thing!

The render down the side of my front door needs replaced as you can see from picture. What would be the best cement/sand mix for this and should I use a washing up type component? Should I apply anything like glue before a render? Thanks

Thank so for you replies guys. Aeron I just put that extra wall there so you wouldn't be coming straight out of a bedroom into a living area, and could have been a space for an extra bit of storage which the house lacks. As tomfe said I would get a proper designer if I go ahead, I was just...

Due to growing family, we are considering a wrap around extension to our 3 bed semi to make it a 4 bed with larger kitchen and downstairs toilet. I understand the first stage is to get drawings then quotes but thought I would ask for a likely cost on here before doing so as if it is...

I know you get the straight lengths of various beading and b and q and the like, but will these bend sufficiently to go over the curve?

I have cracks running up the join between my stairs wall string and plasterboard. I'd like to replace the beading at the top of the string with a slightly wider one to cover the cracks in plaster. Does anyone know where I might get new beading? The staircase curves at the top which may mean...

Hi, I am building an understairs cupboard using hollow doors I am cutting down to size. Id like to use kitchen cupboard door hinges as they are adjustable so I can get the doors sitting perfectly. Will the hollow doors be strong enough for these one I cut out the circular hole to put the...
