Got to paint the kitchen now the plaster has been repaired. The paint is purchased, the roller and tray are in the garage, dust sheets ready - but I am not! As usual with all things DIY I hate them and am crap with my hands, but have done all of it over 40 odd years of marriage.
The shower tray needs resealing in the bathroom which is above the kitchen (that's why I had to remove some kitchen ceiling and now have to paint it). When we installed the new walk-in shower cubicle, I followed the instructions in the box correctly for the tray. When the plumber and I tried to install the glass walls, they wouldn't fit. A lot of moaning at B&Q finally got the manufacturers to admit they had supplied the wrong fitting details and they sent a fitter to overcome the problem at their cost plus a significant compensatory settlement. That certainly worked aesthetically, but practically it is not satisfactory. The plastic tray flexes, not with our combined weight I would add and as it isn't fitted correctly the silicone gradually loses its grip on the tiles and I fear water ingress at points. So I reckon about every 3 years I am going to have to do this.
