Looking good Ian...did you do the whole kitchen yourself? I've just today finished one (mainly do bathrooms)...the workload on your own is staggering. Finiky little details everywhere.

yea easy when you've got all the jigs...infact it's the easiest bit I think..as for helper only when it's awkward getting worktops in..

I be worried about causing indents on the wood surface....

 

[Bathfix Bob]

Do you prefer bathrooms or kitchens Ian?

I know what you mean about having a helper...I work better on my own and only need assistance lifting a fridge freezer into its cabinet.

Just completed a really nice kitchen but it took me a while...hoping to be quicker on the next one. Its the flatpacks that took the time and silly things like the cooker hood facia and getting everything lined up and true.

so would I if it were wood..but it's a composite that you have to sand in stages then buff with a cream cleanser then seal all after tiles have been grouted......it's very hard wearing...seamless joints too..

Which one Ian? There seams to be a new one out every other week Maia, apollo, Mistral, getacore, earthstone, minerelle... the list goes on.

And how did you find it?
