hi cheers for the reply. the reason i ask is lots of the kitchen wiring was found to be dodgy. and i wanna be sure before i buy any new kit! anyone know if the IP ratings on the fan (on the weblink) are ok for above a shower/bath?

hi i quite like the idea of using large tiles on the bathroom wall (less grout to go mouldy for one thing). i would imagine that there is a size/weight limit so that once this exceeded the tiles will slip down the wall before the adhesive goes off. is this correct? i have 450mm x 450mm on my...

Hi We fitted some travertine kitchen tiles with brilliant white grouting and the grout is much too bright. can we "paint" the grout or use some other product to make the grouting a more sandy/stone colour? Please advise!

jockster thanks for taking the time to reply. are they T&G joints as that may help (and thats what i will go for). i think i will also fit battoning to the wall to obtain a plumb surface. the clear silicone is a good idea and i will adopt that also. looking forward to your further comments...
