Thankfully for the last bout of decorating we did it while having an extension built so got the builders to do that at the same time SWMBO though has been eyeing up our bedroom and making noises about it needing doing - should be able to stall her for a year though |

well the new vinyl flooring has been laid in the upstairs bathroom and bedroom and is looking good. there is enough vinyl left from the bathroom (because of the bath and shower) to lay in the downstairs toilet, which is also painted the same colour, as i laid it out and cut it in one piece to fit (+1cm) then trimmed with a wallpaper cutter after laying. i will lay that after putting the final paint on. to everyone decorating its hard graft but the end result and finish is well worth the effort ... |

Vinyl flooring is great. We've got wood effect in the kitchen and tile effect in the bathroom. It works very well. |

It was “fun” laying it in our utility room – lots of ins and out to cut just right – thankfully a mate is an ex floor / carpet layer so he came and gave me a hand Had enough from the roll (ordered a 3m length and was sent a 4m length) to do the garage so the bike now sits on some natty slate tile effect vinyl |

I really should finish decorating the bathroom (started last year  )In my defence, the bits that mainly need doing are painting the hot water and heating pipes that are exposed and I ran out of time when I didn't need the heating on last year. But yeah, apathy rules! |
