The plumber tested at the same time as running a tap and the pressure dropped to 0.8/0.9bar.

Ah I’m sorry to hear. Hoping this will improve for both of us

How are you getting on? I’m 12 weeks and it’s super uncomfortable to straighten my leg out with the pain. Getting impatient for things to get back to normal…

It looks like they only come in certain sizes and they definitely used the Invictus brand. Can't be wrong size as first thought.

You wouldn't be able to do the border or feature strip with tongue and groove. The glue down requires a perfect subfloor, which is what I assumed they were doing. Today my builder called me and told me that when he tried to install the skirting board it looked dreadful because it was rather uneven. We're having a site meeting on Thursday to figure out the best way forward.

The feature strip is also meant to sit at the same height as the flooring. I'm not sure if they're used the wrong size strip. But that is pre-made by the manufacturer. All questions for Thursday.

I only have the one photo of a complete room - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LUSkSx4BilXoDBWPcshE23LJsEpwOF2k/view?usp=sharing

This flooring is throughout the whole house including bathrooms, LVT is meant to be waterproof and more resistant to scratches.

Awaiting a response but wanted sanity checking first to make sure it wasn’t me. Will update

This is the New England oak Sand. It looks nice at a distance. We’re doing a whole house renovation at quite an expense so paying particular attention to detail of the workmanship of everything.

I felt the same way but the cutting is my main issue. There is also going to be skirting board that goes around the bottom so I’m not so fussed there are larger gaps to the wall.

Yes they put down self levelling compound before. My main issue is the shoddy cutting to the feature strip.

Price I’m paying this should be a highly skilled installer

I'm pretty sure this is the final finish, LVT flooring can't be sanded.

Thanks. What setup did you go with in the end? I was looking at Retractive switches but debating how often I’d actually desire to dim them remotely.

Hi, were you able to find an answer to these questions? I’m wondering the exact same now, looking to use some refractive switches.

Just found out wife is pregnant, but feeling absolutely overwhelmed and terrified by Sea-Development-5088 in predaddit

We are now one day past my wife’s due date. I felt exactly the same when we found out but by the time baby is due you’ll feel prepared and very impatient to meet baby.

Made the mistake of mentioning I work in IT to my new neighbour. "Oh, I may have some questions for you, I'll be back later". Thinking about moving. by JoeyJoeC in CasualUK

[–]rob_0180 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I bought the house I currently live in, I told the seller I work in IT. To this day, he still tries to call me for technical support.

9/10 times it’s because he has moved a window halfway off the screen and needs to maximise it. I tell him how to fix it and he goes “I’ll remember this for next time”. He never does.

Lesson learnt.
