Hi Navin It appears you are looking for a new house that is also a project (I note this is the 5th property you have posted which you are considering for purchase). The best advice I can offer is find a local architect to go on this journey with you. It is apparent from your posts that you have a budget in mind and a set of requirements to be met - it is worth working closely with a consultant who fully understands your wish list A local architect will have knowledge of the planning constraints in the area. With a full understanding of your budget they should be able to advise you on whether certain properties can be altered to meet your requirements - e.g. It might or might not be possible to add another floor to a bungalow because of planning, but if it was possible it might be too expensive (or it might be simpler to demolish the existing property and build a new house - but will this work with the budget) Try looking in the 'find a pro' section of Houzz for an architect in the area you are looking for a house. If there are any that you like the work of send them a message, explain your project and ask if they would be interested in working with you. Good luck with your house search and future project

Hi, the flooring is vinyl, I don't know the manufacturer or name I'm afraid. My local carpet fitter had various books to choose from, I think it cost around £150 total.

Hi Jen. Mine is panelled floor to ceiling albeit in a different style. The moisture resistant MDF is just that, its MR and it's splash proof but you couldn't have water constantly running against it as it's still prone to swelling etc as far as I'm aware. Mine is actually fine around around the bath, despite me constantly dropping the shower head and spraying the walls, although I have had a couple of expansion gaps appear elsewhere tbh. I opted for F&B water based so don't know if LG oil would have been better or it could just have been my painting!

Thanks Minnie. We will have to putbyhe bath down The left hand side if we do shower over bath because there is not enough tiling space where the window is. The previous owners tried this by the look of it and realised that water just covers the window sill and window! The bath would have to be a footed shower over one or i think a panel on the bath?? So if we panel it would be half way up the wall.

Most panels are produced out of MDF which is pretty stable - then painted with a min of eggshell sheen, that is wipe able - obviously if you have a 'flake ' moment (like their old advert ) in the bath and let it flood over, it will cause damage ! If you are likely to do this sort of thing then tank the room as you would a wet room and have composite or stone panelling instead

I had mine panelled with individual T&G cut to size. Undercoat and top coat of a dead flat wood paint, and it's still gr8 30 years on.

Now you can buy the MDF sheets as mentioned above. You still have to put in place horizontal batons, but an under and top coat with a final coat of clear varnish - I would go for Yacht Varnish - and it'll last for years. Just make sure you seal top & bottom edges too.

Good luck.
