Hi Donna, the world is your oyster really, your kitchen sounds quite neutral so you can go for almost anything. Gillian is right there are lots of porcelain wood effect tiles around these days and some look better than others. Porcelain tiles are very practical and hardwaring and easy to keep clean. Think about the look you are trying to achieve, do you want the floor to look ultra plain or would you consider a concrete/stone effect tile? Stone effect tiles can look stunning and will hide a multitude of sins, necessary if you have children or animals in the house. Natural stone is also a possibility but these do require more maintenance. Hope that gives you a few ideas. Have a look through our website for more inspiration. Karen

The description from the original source says:- Cabinetry from Premier Custom Built rift cut white oak with tincture www.premiercb.com I I presume therefore, that they have used solid oak and given it a finish which would be durable in a kitchen. You would need to contact them to find out more.

Advice on selecting the best type of wood for ext windows and doors

Hi John Sapele is from the mahogany family and is more readily available as a solid timber, the engineered format is usually more expensive than Grandis. Grandis is from the eucalyptus family and is readily available in engineered format making it slightly cheaper. but they are both good hardwoods and both ideal for doors and windows however we would personally always opt for engineered timber for stability unless using Accoya timber. We use engineered wood in virtually all of our exterior joinery projects as it is much more stable to work with compared to solid timber sections and is much less likely to warp or twist in wet/humid conditions. Depending on the finish you want on your door and whether or not you live in an exposed area e.g. by the sea would help us deciding on a certain timber for your needs. If you want a stained wooden door then you can not beat Engineered Oak. If you are opting for a painted finish then we would advise on Engineered Grandis. It is a more affordable hardwood that looks great when painted. If you live in an exposed area then Accoya is fantastic, it is a softwood that has had the cell structure altered using a natural process to stop it from absorbing moisture. The benefits of this is that Accoya timber will last 50 years above sea level and the shrinkage and swelling is reduced by 75% which reduces your maintenance costs long term. It can be painted or if you prefer it can be stained to look like Oak. Accoya is a more expensive timber due to its properties. For painted windows we still think Engineered Redwood is a great affordable option, it is a very hard "softwood" and works well for windows but we would never advise that it is used on doors as it doesn't last. Again if you want your windows to be stained then we would suggest Engineered Oak or Accoya. Hope this helps, good luck with your search and let us know if you have any further questions.

Many thanks Daisy (and hubby!). It has been very difficult to photograph There seems to be a variety of different fungi/molds at play I different location around the wndow frame The one that concerns me most is hidden away, for the most part, in the corner under the window sill/trim. There’s some cubodial cracking on some of the wood up in the corner and there was a fruiting body which had a slightly ochre colour to it, with a whitish edge. It seems to be contained to just that area. Thanks once again!

My pictures seem to show the wood grain. If this is true what kind of wood is the cabinet made from?

Is the paint application variegated color or is it just the way the picture is. When I zoom in it looks like"layers" of different tones of the same color. I'm really liking it. I don't know who could do something like that for me here in NC.
