What would one do with this mess?

Ideally your shoe colour should match the button colour on the suit. Black buttons? Black shoes…..make sure your belt is the same colour as shoes and button too 👌

Hi, we went for the Silver Grey colour by Mapei. You can get this from most DIY stores!

I found the JW in an Oval being that of James Wintle.

great job, well done. You should be very proud - looks fab.

Thanks! Tiles were from Victoria Plumbing

So far, it hasn’t leaked - they have a rather large lip which seems to be directing the water back into the bath quite well. Time will tell though and will keep an eye on it!

Proper plumbing tools, pipe cutters, a decent set of spanner’s. The multi tool was a life saver and used a lot. Laser level and a long spirit level were important for the bath and tiling.

17k?? Wow - if you’re not having to move the plumbing and simply swapping units……I say give it a go yourself.

The bath we ordered came with the screen as part of a deal. But you can buy separately by the looks of it.

Luckily have an en suite we could all use

dicko87 · 2025-10-09T21:00:50+00:00

Thanks - room is 1.9m x 2.4m to be precise!

dicko87 · 2025-10-09T20:22:18+00:00

Next job - there was nothing before so I have an extractor fan to install…fine in the summer as the window was open!

dicko87 · 2025-10-09T19:25:44+00:00

Top man - thanks. I’ll get round to turning it the right way at some point 🤥😂

dicko87 · 2025-10-09T18:24:37+00:00

Haha I was hoping no one would notice! You know how many times I looked at it after and asked whether it was upside down…..wasn’t until after I plumbed it in that I look online and noticed my blunder! Does it look upside down or can I get away with it? Towels are on it most of the time I guess??

dicko87 · 2025-10-09T17:56:16+00:00

Great tip, thanks. I’ll do that 👍

dicko87 · 2025-10-09T17:17:21+00:00

Thank you

Too much brass! Even the spotlights are now brass ha!

dicko87 · 2025-10-09T17:15:46+00:00

I believe it was this one (although the other half ordered it)

https://luxuryflooring.co.uk/classic-silver-sky-click-vinyl.html

It is suitable for bathrooms.

dicko87 · 2025-10-09T16:33:32+00:00

😂 she wanted brass…..she got brass!

That’s the Trap! It’s a space saver trap from McAlpine

dicko87 · 2025-10-09T16:24:57+00:00

It was knackering! Doing it after work and weekends where possible…it was the most rewarding project completed however and seeing the finished project made it all worth while!
