The tiling in the bath shelf has failed. I now have damp spots in the kitchen ceiling below. I also have black mould in the kitchen cupboards. The shower tray is also leaking. I cannot afford to replace the bathroom which is fully tiled. Please help.

Comments (11)I am a tiler and I used all kind of tiles and mosaics. Best advice ,as your corner shower will be around 800/800mm ,get porcelain tiles . In London,European Heritage sells porcelain with carrara marble print (white and greish veins gloss shiny finish or other color options) at 795/795mm. That would mean about 3 tiles per wall. around 240 the whole set of tiles with only 2 horizontal grout lines. For best results,use Mapei grout(you can find it even at B&Q nowdays. Add black matt finish taps and mixers and you have a relaxing colour mix....See MoreSuitable types of flooring for both kitchen and bathroom?
Comments (4)Hi Nikki, Firstly, congrats on buying your first flat! We specialise in vinyl flooring, which is great for bathrooms and kitchens as our flooring is scuff and stain resistant, hygienic, slip and moisture resistant. Here are some stone effect options you might like to take a look at: White: Azuriet 46148 or Cantera 46130 Grey: Zeera Slate 36952 Black: Jetstone 46992 These are some of our suggestions, of course pop over to our website if you'd like to see more stone effect flooring. We also offer wood effect. We hope this helps, let us know if you have any questions! Moduleo...See MoreBathroom cleaning tips - what works for you?
Comments (26)From a radiator expert's viewpoint, the key is ensuring you heat the room adequately and for bathrooms we keep them warmer generally due to lack of clothes! If you call us on 01274 515734 with your room measurements and your towel radiator measurements and we can advise if the towel rail you have currently is suitable. You don't want to buy a new radiator if there is no need! Going for a "dual fuel" radiator is also a good suggestion as these come with a summer heating element for use when the central heating is turned off. We offer these on all our ladder style towel radiators. Keeping the bathroom warm will help with condensation but it can't eliminate it. The steam condenses on a cold surface, so good insulation and keeping the water level to a minimum is very important. So add cavity wall, double glazing, if possible and encourage the steam to escape with open windows and good extractor fans. However from personal experience, this is often still not enough and a squigee and an old towel for drying those prone areas before the mould develops is your best bet. Although it is a pain to dry the shower after use, it is much easier than trying to remove mould later on. Good luck! I can sympathise!

Comments (4)Hello fullrenov, With so many finishes and colours to choose from it can be quite a feat getting all the materials to match... Things like pop up waste and bottle trap etc can be forgotten in the excitement of it all... but..... before panicking about it, consider if things are in certain areas... Could they team with chrome? I like Nickel.. Do you see the waste and could you live with a chrome one? Ie if it is a deep bowl such as the one pictured where you only see it when looking directly into the bowl. The way to look at this is to perhaps introduce a bit more chrome into the equation and then perhaps it will seem deliberately designed around the two finishes.. With the screen you really want it not to stand out so much especially if its fitted onto a light wall/tiles... So consider where you can introduce chrome or silvery accessories and move the chrome element on to include mirrors etc... A few images to give you an idea that black or dark metal fittings are style on tap! :))...See Morefergilicious
