Hi folks, Had a spark around recently and he was advising we replace the lighting in the kitchen. These are old round recessed lights with little transformers above. Transformers and bulbs have started to die, housing is looking rough, and he's suggesting replace them with LED alternatives that...

Within 4-6 weeks a new kitchen (high street but as smart as poss) will need to be in at the house I've just bought. There's a separate living room but the units will be semi-open plan to a largish dining room. The available kitchen area is 3800x2230m and lends itself to a natural L shape plus...

Hi all, I am installing a new kitchen. The units come with a plynth that is 150mm tall and adjustable legs. We will be putting down laminate flooring (probably 8mm + 5mm underlay) which will be installed after the units are fitted (so they dont sit on the laminate). My question is: I have...

Hi, I'm planning on replacing my kitchen counters with a solid walnut (stave) worktop and a new sink. I like the look of flush fitting sinks and my worktop supplier has said they can do CNC cutting for this kind of fitting but I'm worried that this type of fitting might not be suitable for...
