Hi,
I am rebuilding my kitchen and rather than tile between the upper and lower cabinets I wanted to buy some form of board that has a tiled effect already on it.
The idea would be to use some form of glue to attach this to the newly plastered walls.
I cannot find anyone that sells this type of board though, or indeed what its correct name woul dbe so that I might "google" it.
Thanks foir any advise,
Strakky. |

hi, thanks for the reply, I had a look there abnd they are around £40 per sheet.
To go round my kitchen this would mean around £200 which i was hoping to limit.
Anyone any idea of somewhere, even online, that I can get cheaper please?
Thanks all. |

Why not just tile? might sound a silly question, but I am curious? _________________ "Where would we be without rules?

| im afraid to say but if you want the easy way out you have to pay the price, it would be so much cheaper to tile it, £5 per sq metre for 150x150 in B&Q |

Never done before but we'll see how it goes... gulp!
Thanks for your replies,
