Kitchen design stage !!! My plan was to integrate ( somehow ) our existing washer under the kitchen worktop . I was concerned though about it moving and vibration . Are integrated ones somehow designed to avoid this ? ; if so how ? My washer can move and jump around quite a bit when on speed …

Cheap skate . I used tile backer board even in the minuscule wc - just so walls are flat for tiling and I don’t need a trade on site for plastering . You pinch those pennies anymore your nuts will start growing inwards . -

walls not level enough for lintel - do we cut the bricks

HiD needs to be given a break . I built an entire blockwork wall used a string , spirit level and laser - paranoid about drift . 1st time is learning , 2nd time is practice, 700000th time is skilled 😊 . It’s fixable ; that is what matters !! 👍🍷 -

I’ll try them . Apart from the odd grandchild hand marks ( I find if I break their fingers each time they tend not to touch the wall ) - rest is from trades …. 🙄

Yeah , yeah - all that bollocks .

That’s nothing compared to what I did on them - “ Pocsters Special Organic Jam “

That include me then ? ; winging it for a decade with no architect , SE , BCO input ? 🙄😎

But have you tried it ? You know , painted a wall with it , smeared excrement on it , wiped it off successfully…?

This wall at the top of the stairs might aswell have a sign saying “ scratch me , dirty hand prints welcome“ I really want something that is durable to hand prints / easily wipeable . But I want Matt as otherwise a ‘shiny’ wall might look odd if I go for silk or “bathroom “ paint . Here’s what I used originally

Ahhhh “ local vernacular “ , “ detrimental to the local amenity “ , “ you are not factually incorrect ( because they can’t say a definite like ‘yes’ )” .Brings back memories of much BS - but OP’s is in the bag 👍 -

Strange they want a dormer ! I’m sure a tasteful one could be designed though . If that’s the only planning condition I’d go with it imho -

But the fact it’s water proof and flexible is my point I.e it’s not designed for the job you require - but can’t see why it wouldn’t work . 🤔🫤😃
