Thinking of converting conservatory to ground floor terrace
Comments (4)Thanks for the comments. The suggestion by Bebe Price is probably closest to what we are looking to do. I really like the idea and look of the reclaimed bricks. Did they keep the foundation and just lay the bricks? Do you know if there are any drainage / standing water issues with water on the patio bit? jonathandb1972 - the reason we were hoping to keep the foundation rather then starting from scratch was in the hope of saving money - do you think this could result in a false economy? Apologies for the novice questions / observations - I don't have any experience in this area and was looking for suggestions / ideas to see if it is a practical option....See MoreKitchen/Conservatory flooring
Comments (6)I can only speak from experience of tiles and Karndean. We have two dogs, live in the country, we and the dogs are in and out all day. The dogs both used to slip even on terracotta ( back in the old days), and, i'd be worried about shiny tiles, especially with larger dogs that could slip far more easily and cause themselves damage. The tiles were dark and had to go, as they showed up the dirt. The grout was the biggest problem, as it was easily stained, and just not practical with dogs. We swapped to Karndean around 5/6 years ago and haven't looked back since. It's simply the best, unscratchable, hard wearing, versatile, easily cleaned surface ever. We live in an old cottage and it had to fit in, so we went with Van Gogh, a floorboard effect look, complete with etched woodworm holes! Love it....See MoreFloor plan for replacing conservatory and extending kitchen - help!
Comments (8)Hi Tommy, good choice to ask the forum - you should stay away from architects who are not attentive to your needs... I think that you can work with the size of your current conservatory. Just Re-design the kitchen layout and remove the wall that divide the kitchen from the dining room. Your dinning room could be the where the current conservatory is so that you could take advantage of the light. Make an opening between the sitting room and the current dining area, that way you can have a bigger family room and get the feeling of a cozy space. I’ll be happy to help you further, you can get in touch through our site - www.betterspace.co. Good luck, Ed...See Morevinyl Vs engineered board wood flooring
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 Morelspendl 828
