    Bathroom worktop

    Well, thanks everyone. I've given up on the painted wood idea. Foxhole, I looked at end panels today but not much choice. I've googled and e-bayed for an hour and have decided to go back to Rosyth tomorrow and get a black one. Just want the job over and done with now!

    Bathroom worktop

    Thank you Alan. I went along to the big place in Rosyth this morning(it's called E.D.S.). In fact, that is where I got my original one but they only seem to do neutrally colours now. Thank you Cane. Great suggestion but I think a little out of my price range. The saying 'you get what you...

    Thanks Joe, I did look at kitchen worktops but they seem to be a lot thicker than the bathroom ones.

    Bathroom worktop

    The toilet need repairing so the plumber had to take off the worktop over it. This obviously should have been put on lightly but it had been glued down so firmly there was no alternative but to pull it off bit by bit javascript:emoticon(':cry:') It was a beautiful colour that went perfectly...

    Can I replace architrave with tiles?

    At last the bathroom is being re-done! It is very small so every cm counts. If we could take the architrave off the door and tile up to the frame instead, on one side we could have a slightly wider bath and on the other side we could squeeze in a much needed tall narrow cabinet. Would...

    Very stiff door handles

    I've had 12 new doors fitted but the builder has put (very cheap?) small handles on them that are so stiff that I can hardly use them. Some of them actually stay in a half position after I have pressed them down. Builder says that he always uses these, no one has complained before and they...

    Colour scheme advice please

    I can't decide on the colour for floor tiles in the new kitchen. The units are cream high gloss, the walls a darker shade of cream and I am getting a black galaxy worktop fitted next week. I am not having wall tiles, just upstands and a black glass splashback behind the cooker. The room is a...

    Aldi bathroom taps

    Thank you Chris and Seco. I'm disappointed but at least it'll save wasting my money. It's back to the internet for me, the taps I've seen so far are very expensive. So thanks for the advice guys. :)

    Aldi bathroom taps

    I have seen some fantastic cheap bathroom taps in Aldi today and am needing one for our new en suite. When I had the downstairs cloakroom done, the plumber told me I had low water pressure and needed a tap of .5 bar or less. I asked the manager in Aldi what bar the taps would suit and he...
