Kitchen floor is done ! .. ( excuse the phone pics, forgot the proper camera :/ )

Blackstar · 02-05-2007, 20:26

I recognise those tiles....

Piggymon · 02-05-2007, 20:27

No ya don't

They're Karndean

( vinyl that is laid and looks like tiles with little strips inbetween that look like grout )

This stuff is amazing, we have it in our bathroom, lounge and now the kitchen, it comes with a 15 year guarantee and even has the texture of what it's replicating

Roberta · 02-05-2007, 20:46

Cor. That's one sexy floor.

Stan_Lite · 02-05-2007, 20:49

Looking good guys.

A lot of hard work gone into that but will be well worth it when it's finished

/Raises hat (and glass

) to the workers.

B&Q sell a tile that looks exactly like that!
It looks fantastic Piggy looking the floor, means no regrouting as well. Always a good thing.

Much love for Karndean !!

I'm not on comission I promise, just seriously impressed with this stuff... it's not stupidly expensive either, the lounge and kitchen cost us £1500 fitted.

Wohooo we have stairs !!!! .. I think I'll kinda miss the ladder though :/

Really starting to take shape now and if we can get the blinds up later on we'll sleep here tonight .. IN OUR OWN BED YIPEEEE !!

Some Pics :-

We're going to leave the stairs as open as possible but boxing in underneath at the lowest part, just enough to create a cupboard tall enough for the hoooooover and then leave the rest open.

Plasterer will be coming back to plyboard/skim the underside which we will then paint the same colour as the walls.

We're also going to stain the wood to match in with the floor better :

We'll be getting a nice seagrass/hessian carpet runner with stair rods in a nice light colour so that the stairs don't look too dark or are too noisy when clomping up and down.

It's really starting to feel like home now
