The house we bought a few year ago came with a 20 year old conservatory m, one of those upvc hobbies complete with polycarbonate roof. It’s ok for now and will get replaced with a more modern version at some point when we have the funds but obviously these structures get very hot and BRIGHT in...

Hi, Was going to give this paint mix a go, just to see how it performs. I can reveal results etc. I have bough the fine aluminium metalic paints and now need to find the grey paint. Now, I have read people saying Dulux Grey steel 2 is best, but it's very hard to find or really expensive. With...

Hi all, Can anyone kindly share what carpet they opted for for their cinema rooms? I am currently settled on the iSense Obsession in Raven Grey (grey-black). But I am intrigued by and like the look of the traditional plush, velour/ velvet type carpets I often see in dedicated rooms - can anyone...
