  1. I’m preparing NoMorePly cement boards to be microcemented over as part of a bathroom renovation. FST has been recommended on here to fill the screw heads / boards joins. I’m struggling to get hold of any locally and the delivery cost online is as much as the product. Can anyone recommend a suitable alternative? Would Toupret fine surface filler work ?
  2. Dear all, Was going great guns putting our utility units and worktop in until last night. I cut the worktop and slid it in place and found this: The laminate worktop is square edge and if I route a curve on this I'm told the edging tape & adhesive doesn't match it well enough to make a seamless join. I'm pretty sure it would be OK on the edge of this bit though. I'm torn now. 1. Do I just stick some edging tape and accept it looks an awkward junction and then move on to the next job OR 2. Order a new end panel and leave it at 600mm deep (current one is trimmed to 580mm to match the cabinet (560mm deep) + 20mm doors ). Take off the old one and replace it. I would need to do both sides. More £ than option 1. Reinstall cabinet the tall cabinet (RHS of the pic) and accept that the door is 20mm back from the panel edges OR 3. As per 2 but remount the cabinet 20mm off the wall so the door is flush with the panel edges. Washing machine going in next door so unlikely that anyone will really notice that these doors are further out from the wall than any other one. moving the cabinet 20mm off the wall will involve a fiddle since id does need a good brace since the rear panel has to be removed for the fridge. I could fix to the end panel. Hope thats clear. Its times like this that I wished I was in the trade and just knew what to do. Interested in your thoughts. Cheers CC44
  3. Hi all, I'm looking for recommendations on the best way to fill gaps in my exposed eaves and soffits. There are gaps of around 3-10mm around each rafter where is meets to soffits under the roof. This is letting in a draft and could also be a space for bugs to get in. I was thinking of using expanding foam in some of the larger gaps then mastic over the top with some external flexible mastic. I can then paint over the top. Does this sound ok or is there a better way? Cheers!
