Help please I worried

last year

I feel very very stupid but I started to hammer a small nail Into the wall and heard a clang when I hit with the hammer (not hard) I immediately aborted everything. However I am absolutely panicking I have hit something behind the wall and feel as though I could faint that I'm going to have a house fire or gas leak can someone please help on what I should do or if (without seeing it) there is a problem I don't think il even sleep tonight. I feel embarrassed even writing this and should know better

As you are worried I'd suggest trying to remove the plaster to see what's underneath where you hit. Hopefully it's nothing serious and you can just repair ths plaster.

Is it line with either a wall light or socket? Could just be a bit of conduit. Post a pic of the wall

Hi. Have you ever considered a real interesting eye catching piece of art work to really brighten up an area, I think a select piece of art would really make the space stand out, add interest, colour, texture and add a great talking point to the room.... Please check out my website if like the idea and please get in contact, commission work is also welcomed so if you like a particular style I can do in a select colour palette and size but with this it can only be done as a original piece and not a print.....but all prints i can do to the same size or smaller than my original paintings, so lots of options. www.GuigsART.co.uk

I agree with the grey suggestions. Purples and grays always look great together. I'd go with something that was a grey and white print...check out West Elm, they always have some great ones.

Hey Lucy, great colour choice , really like it...very like my living room ! I would go for the copper accessories definitely. I would also be inclined to paint the skirting as well. If you have gone for a dark shade, embrace it...don't then try and counter it with white to lighten it up. Be Bold ! I would consider some bright, green hanging plants (faux if needs be due to lack of light) and maybe an illuminated sign? Also the downlighter shade isn't making the most of the room. I would be tempted to choose something more striking or in white wicker to match the mirror or a gorgeous copper paper artichoke shade from Vitra ? The copper wall-mounted baskets would look fabulous against that shade and you can have spare white towels rolled up in one... I would paint the floor as well and then pop a fab patterned mat down... Oliver Bonas have some great ones. Good Luck !!

Hi, I don't think it will dominate the space once the unit is painted/tiled. At the moment, the reason it seems to stick out is due to the colour contrast between the green and plaster. If you tile it/ paint it a similar shade to the tiles, it will blend in and look a part. And ofcourse, it will serve as great storage which is always a requirement.

If it was gas you would smell it. It has a very strong smell. If you do smell gas then it is an emergency and you can find the number to call online. Electrics are usually up to a light switch or a wall light. If it made a clang then possibly a water pipe (heating) but a small nail probably won’t cause any problem. I wonder if you could dig out some of the plaster as Sarah suggests so you can have a peek? Worth it just to reassure you.

If you suspect any damage to electrical wiring or gas pipes, and you know how to safely do it, consider turning off the electricity or gas at the main supply until a professional can check it.

It might be a good idea to have a professional (like an electrician or a plumber) come and inspect the area. They can use tools like a stud finder or an inspection camera to see behind the walls and ensure everything is safe. If you need some bath bomb for your bath check on wholesale bath bomb
