Floor boarded bathroom - ideas
Comments (1)I'm also toying with a Moroccan inspired sink splash back. Do you think that goes ok with a Victorian inspired design? These for eg. I have a cast iron roll top, high level loo etc....See MoreWhite floor boards

Comments (10)I think this is a pretty good article as I hadn't considered inspection points before. I normally wouldn't hesitate to have engineered wood in a kitchen however having got a puppy last year and completely underestimating the amount of mud she brings in Everywhere I would opt for vinyl. We don't have wood in our kitchen but solid and engineered elsewhere and I would also consider how slippery the surface can be particularly for a puppy who runs and jumps everywhere. I like LVT but i think they vary hugely even within the same brand as to how realistic they are so would shop around. Personally I also think LVT looks better with the design strips between the plank to mimic wood and I'd also speak to the fitter to see how it's finished around the perimeter of the room. My mum has a nice karndean floor but finished with clear sealant which I really don't like! I assume it's possible to remove the skirting boards and hide the ends of the planks as you would with wood to avoid this though? I think LVT is also a bit better re scratch marks (if you wanted to keep the wood looking pristine) and although it can still fade in the sunlight I don't think it will be anything like wood can fade https://www.woodandbeyond.com/blog/can-you-have-wood-floors-in-kitchens/...See Morehow to insulate under original floor board?
Comments (16)Sarah if I'm honest it's proving a bit of a pain. Its a UK gov grant so go to the website and then search for registered trade people near you. Supposedly they've only registered for the green home improvements they offer but I've found most ticked ask the boxes. I only found four around us that did under floor insulation and two are completely booked up, one isn't responding and the one we've had a quote from just feels a bit off. They have a handful of reviews online and just something doesn't feel right. so I'm doing some more research before committing. Then lots of paper work to complete but in the end we only pay our share and the company get the rest directly from the gov grant. Hopefully it'll work out...!...See MoreRe:Design Architecture
