  • We had our survey done yesterday, nothing worrying, but the surveyor said while there's no issue with water pressure at the bottom of the house the shower in the ensuite at the top seemed on the weak side, so I suspect we'll have the same issue.

    If you've not ordered your tiles yet I definitely agree with spending less. The architect who filled in for our architect when he went on holiday (then went to work for him) had his fancy place in Edinburgh featured in Dezeen recently. They did the whole place on a budget of £20k but ended up spending 15 and it looks great, and they used tiles that cost 38p each (£19 per square metre) in the kitchen.

  • @fox when you say they "did" the "whole place" what do you mean? For example, £15k to buy all the furniture and fittings and wall and floor coverings would be good going, assuming they zero rated their own labour for installing everything?

    The way I've written this probably looks passive aggressive. Apologies, I guess I feel that cost reporting is wishy washy without the substantiating detail. Also, I get that the point is that it looks real good and was relatively cheap. Appreciate that you may not have all the details!

  • Yeah that’s nice, ikea kitchen too!

    You can do that up here, although Edinburgh usually has some london tax on it. After looking at the pictures seems like a steal and then scrolling down and seeing 75k which makes more sense as that kitchen doesn't look cheap id guess at least 10-15 for that.
