is there...
« on: 19 August 2010, 12:15:03 »

a carpenter or kitchen fitter in the house?

I've just moved into my flat in Acton, London, picked up keys on Monday!  :D

Starting to re-decorate the whole place, there are some built in Wardrobes which have Louvre Doors, these have been horribly coated in some very crappy gloss, going to replace these with wooden ones and varnish them, but the internals to the wardrobe have had their day. The floor and backs to the wardobe need replacing, its also made out of some very crappy thin cardboard type wood, i would like it done right, so that rules me out!  ;D

Can anyone recommend someone?

Also the kitchen, although nice fittings and style have been used, its been put together by a complete moron, who had no idea what a sprit level was! Even I have one of those! Couple of things need sorting, also the built in dishwasher is not quite secure, it moves around a bit, so needs re-fitting / bolting.

Beer vouchers / folding notes waiting  :y

Dishwasher unless some fancy built in affair should have adjustment on one or more feet like a fridge. Just use your spirit level..

Dishwasher shouldnt be bolted in place, you may need to pull it out urgently, to turn water off/etc.

Try a few beermats placed in the correct place underneath to stop it moving  :y ::)

Could'nt help with the kitchen although i'll cook the curry! As regards the bedroom cupboard louvre doors i'd nitro mors them, leave in a ventilated room overnight, rub/scrape the last residue off then repaint/stain to your taste & rehang with pretty new hinges & handles from any hardware store. In time you'll admire your handiwork & be pleased you did'nt replace them. So are we having a curry diy weekend at yours then? 8-)

mini meet sounds good, although parking is an issue around here, there is on-road parking which is free but only a handful of spaces in the car park.

Its dead easy to get to via train through, got main line rail and 3 other stations within 1 mile  :o
