ok will do our best lol! Forgot to mention the second hole near the bifold doors is for outside lights. Our electrician was a disaster tbh, he’s also done a poor job on sockets also (gaps, not lining up), no idea how to fix that!

what would you use to rub it down/ fine or coarse paper? By hand ? How can I get a smooth finish ?

Hi So the electrician filled chased walls and it looked like a Frankenstein job…. We hoped that hand sanding and applying some filler (poly filla - bad!) we could proceed and paint over but as you can see it looks awful. What can we do to fix it ? Use an electric sander and smooth ready mix...

That’s right I said 870 it was 840

Berkshire…

Sorry Chirpychippy, my bad, it was 840 also not 870

top of the sink is at 84cm

We actually called the carpenter to fix a botched job by someone who said they could do it... I mean it was bad, feet were hanging by one screw, units barely attached to the wall also... the worktop is from a supplier (we had a great discount), who understood so didn't proceed after taking...

Never knew this... This sounds a bit drastic and violent to the machine :LOL: does that work for dishwashers too?!!

Incidentally, the plinths was one long one, and supplied as 16cm tall ! The half end panel to the left of the dishwashwer is 84cm tall, and the unit next to it (under the sink) is 58.5/59cm tall

Height at the back (and front) of end panel is 84.5cm and correction, apologies, the base unit at the left is also 84.5cm tall with plinth inside

Thanks for all the information, and latest replies Oops. Chirpychippy and Conny and the lengthy reply Jobandknock. some of which is a bit technical for me lol. Wish one if you had fitted our kitchen Yes, the base unit height as installed is 87cm tall, within that is a plinth of 16cm. The...

Ok so our new kitchen is almost fitted but the worktop supplier said there should be a gap between worktop and appliances - not sure why our carpenter didn’t keep the end panels between units as oversize, instead he trimmed them down to line up with them! He actually says he trimmed them to...

Thanks Woody Ok...... i'm not sure what you mean 'that does not count as commencement'? the bag of sand under contract or the phone call, or both lol?!

ah ok, thanks. The planning permission actually expires a year from now, it's the party wall agreement that expires soon, but i guess it makes no difference...?

Hi Daniel Craig, wow :) lol. The build wouldn't involve a road as the extension is at the back of the house into what is presently the patio area.. We still need to live here until the other side is sorted which could take many months... any suggestions?

I know it sounds self explanatory, but are there ways to 'commence' building works in a very small way? here's the situation: we live in a terraced house, been waiting to build our approved two storey extension for over a year. We are having delays due to one side who won't sign a party wall...
