Just tiles that come in small stips that match the wall tiles in colours, takes ages to apply.

Got the cream colour going all over and then a matching brown wooden effect floor.

They are the same size as a normal tile, but come on sheets, have to space them exactly right to get the grout lines to match up, realy pain in the arse ::b

PS. Scruff what in your garage construction thread you show a concrete rake from an american company, where did you get it from? Cheers.

LVT fitted in bathroom.

I have fitted an LVT that is usually used in extra heavy contract locations, such as airpots! So I think it should last in my bathroom!

LVT manufacturer is ...

Like Mapei, have a direct account at work as well! I love working in wholesale!

Note at the time of this picture the two planks closest to the bath are not glued, just templated in!

The sockets are the same height that the existing ones were, so kept them the same.

Removing woodchip with a steamer, its a real pain in the arse!
