    Fire Check Cooker Ventilation

    :D I have just completed a new kitchen and garage. The kitchen is just being fitted with a cooker hood over. I cannot vent straight to an outside wall so plan to use the 150mm flat ducting to take it through the garage. I am told by the planning department that I have to use a special type of...

    Kitchen base units

    :D We are going out for something to eat now, no kitchen remember. I have managed to get the tops of the units to 875mm which looks good. This height still gives me a reasonable splash back and depth on the kick boards. It looks OK and seems about right when making a cup of tea. Thanks for...

    Kitchen base units

    :lol: Yes you could tile under the units. Only problem the is that they would be too high in relation to two existing window ledges. The splashback would be tiny. It's turning out to be a bit of a trade off, one thing against the other. I am having to please the eye more than the tape...

    Kitchen base units

    :roll: It's a long story, my wife saw a Schreiber kitchen she liked at MFI. The day we were going to order it a friend took us to Howdens and we bought the same kitchen (Read identical, Howdens are part of the MFI group) for over £1400 LESS (£3200 at MFI and £1763 including VAT at Howdens), and...

    Kitchen base units

    :D Thanks for the advice Masona, I will double check. I have already done as you suggested and tried the kitchen with the worktop on. Thats what made me think it was a bit high. I have just looked at the measurements and think that I can lower it by around 15mm which should help. :? I...

    Kitchen base units

    Hi, I have fitted my kitchen base units in situ but they are not yet screwed in place. I have a couple of questions. :lol: The units are on a new screed floor with tiles over underfloor heating up to the legs. The height of the units from the tiled surface including the worktop is 925mm...

    Another Worktop Jointing Question

    :D I have read all available Mason Mitre/kitchen worktop jointing topics and I am still undecided. :? I have fitted my kitchen but have never fitted a worktop. I already own the tools required except for the template. I have downloaded some instructions on the use of the jig and think that...

    Underfloor Heating

    Hi, I'm thinking of putting electrical underfloor heating in a kitchen extension and a small downstairs shower room which will be tiled over. Whilst there are plenty of products available I don't seem to be able to find any information on recommended ratings, running costs etc. Does anyone...

    Which size bore?

    Thanks for the advice 15mm it is then. As for the flow rate, the wife wants a combi but she also wants a bath. The boiler has been chosen because it has a decent flow rate. 14.5ltrs per minute doesnt seem much I know, but compared to most of the others (between 9 1nd 11ltrs) its not too bad...

    Which size bore?

    I have decided to install a Worcester Condensing Combi boiler and new radiators to replace a 30yr old gravity fed system. As a precaution I will replace the pipework which may not be able to cope with a pressurised system. Can anyone tell me the benifits and diasadvantages of using 15mm 10mm and...
