Hi, sorry, but I don't have an answer to your question. I'd suggest speaking with a wood flooring specialist.

I would go to a reclamation yard and look at their 50s front doors/ windows. We have the same problem... All pvc windows/ door in our new house! Which I hate! We have bought a 30s original front door on eBay; the plan is to replace first front door and square pvc window next to it to original wooden ones. Just changing these 2 only should already put charm back to the house for not too much expense !! Especially if painted a lovely colour and adding lovely door ironmongery, plants, house number...

Hi sawsankhan, I love the fish tank by the way, I hope that you will keep it when you do your room-makeover as fish are incredibly calming ! Here at Go Modern we have a great range of furniture suitable for children and young adults. I see that your daughter loves dark wood, gold & brown, with this in mind I have a few suggestions which all combine to create a beautiful and extremely stylish bedroom that will take her from 12 to 20 and beyond ! Firstly a smart new bed and I suggest the Bonaldo Billo Teenage Bed which is shown here in golden brown http://www.gomodern.co.uk/store/bonaldo-billo-teenagers-bed.html but which can also be upholstered in a huge range of colours. When she has friends over and needs extra seating in her room,how about these stunning Italian made Hollywood Poufs which are designed by Gino Carrollo. Available in a superb array of removable elastic fabric covers, as well as limited edition patterned fabrics - http://www.gomodern.co.uk/store/bonaldo-hollywood_pouf.html And to complete the look – how about a beautiful full length mirror – this one from Jesse, one of Italy's best known contemporary furniture brands, is perfect as the side strip can be in either walnut, oak or lacquered in your choice from 28 different colours http://www.gomodern.co.uk/store/jesse-strip-vertical-mirror.html I do hope that this is helpful, however, if you have any questions please contact our friendly, knowledgeable team on 020 7731 9540.

Personally I think that the issue is that the pebbledashed section is too plain and this is exacerbated by the fact that the roof here is higher than the original plan. In my opinion the solution is to create some visual interest in this area. If both you and your neighbour is replacing the porch a taller version might help. Personally I think the pebbledash looks like a lower quality product than the rest of the house and painting it would help lift it (as long as the neighbour also want to do it as half done would look worse). Ideally I would put a tall thin sash style window in the pebbledashed section but I recognise this might be inconvenient inside the house- but it could be faked by adding a window surround to the outside to match the stone on the bay.

We don't have pets (sadly) or children (not so sadly) but still wanted a floor that would work for kitchen/lounge/dining space and underfloor heating. We wanted the wood look which isn't very effective with UFH, so went for a lovely Porcelanosa wood effect porcelain tile throughout out open plan space and into the utility and downstairs shower room. We love it and have had no problems with tile breakages. Because the tiles have varying wood-style patterns, they've fooled many people into thinking they're wood at first. Photos show when we first had them fitted. They do other colours if you want a different 'wood' finish:
