October 6, 20251 yr Afternoon all. I'm trying to do something with this exposed section of brickwork where an old boiler used to be. Any suggestions on how best to address the area?
October 6, 20251 yr 6mm cement (Ellis) board and bond it over with a bit of solvent free gripfill. Dust the loose crap off the area first.

Start to finish in 5 hours? £60 worth of end-of-line flooring from the local outlet, and a box of solvent free grip-fill. No wet trades needed. No drying time. Paint-less finish. Zero maintenance. I completely disagree!
