How do I bathroom / kitchen / extension? etc.

These are the only doubles I’ve found, no stick but still different… you 100% sure on brand etc?

Yeah looks pretty clear, I’ll give you that. Maybe older model?

@andos @Tenderloin who’s going to be first to try this unknown brand of taps then?

@chrisbmx116 I need to order mine in the next 2-3 weeks. I might just go for them, I trust my builder and he says he fits them in all bathrooms he does. Good to hear they have the @Tenderloin “feel of approval” too.

Please do keep me posted! I’m keen on them too, look nice plus have been seen in use, decent price too.

Just found out all our new windows now need to be triple glazed to meet building regs changes on the 15th of June.

@Tenderloin you might be fine, if the planning application was submitted before then the new regs don't apply. We missed it by 14 days. I guess the planet wins though, so not all bad.

do you have a link to the changes? (we had to resubmit for planning at the front of the house...)

Just googling. Went from 1.6U to 1.4 IIRC. If your windows are all timber they'll probably be fine anyway.

if the planning application was submitted before then the new regs don't apply

It is linked to when your Approved Building Control Inspector informed the Local Authority that works are due to commence, and not linked to the date of your Planning Application was submitted/approved.

Normally Inspectors issue notice as soon as they are appointed to lock-in current standards so worth checking when you both appointed your Inspector and if they did this.

If anyone is doing a back extension and wants a shiney galvanised downpipe I have a 3m x 80mm surplus - yours if you want to collect it.

Hi all, does anyone have a good tip for a bathroom fitter? we are looking to get two done at the same time, one tiled, the other a tadelekt wet room (with tadelekt London) any tips for SE London (Brixton) much appreciated! apols if wrong thread

Can’t help with a bathroom fitter I’m afraid but would be interested in your experience with tadelekt - what are prices like?

Tadelakt - good luck. All the quotes we got were eye watering and installers took 0 liability :/

interesting, the quotes didnt seem outrageous, 2k for the finish after it is finished as skimmed plasterboard from the builder. With the liability do you mean that the builders and the tadelkt plasterers wouldnt take responsibility? I was wondering this myself and nervous about what happens if the plumber/ builder needs to go back in/ messes it up during final installation.

That seems pretty cheap! Basically the contracts we were given from the sun-contracts said they took no liability for cracking etc and this would have to be taken by us/our contractor. Same for bathroom but also waterproofness

Right then - black or brushed steel ?

A vote for brushed steel here

Steel, no question

steel

Only took a year but fucking finally I got this done

Still need to do some finishing on it but it's there and its rock solid and the roof doesn't leak.
