Hello From The UK
Hi
I'm a general contractor in South East England. I'm always interested in learning about different construction methods and products. I thought this forum would be a great way of learning about different methods and products used in other countries. (After all we are just a small island  )

Re: Hello From The UK
Hi BC
Thanks for the welcome. England is a very wet country right now. Mainly in the North though! Last edited by MBoss; 11-21-2009 at 03:06 PM. |

Re: Hello From The UK
Hi Mr. UK.
I want to learn more about ACO shower channel. Have you installed any of these in an UK Wet Room or European shower system. My very best clients are from the UK and we are always comparing the different techniques as they are renovating here in Vancouver and there in the Uk at the same time.

Re: Hello From The UKQuote:
Hey John. I have tried a few times to order different brands of shower trench, tile safe membrane and impey trays. Have no idea why the US has such a lack of bathroom kit like the UK has but the Uk has many many many more products that the US aint even got. Heres some of the stuff i wish they would start selling over here. Or perhaps they do and someone knows where to get them. Level-dec  Tile-safe membrane  Trench drains  Tile gullys

Over recent years I have mainly worked on fascia and soffits, windows and cladding (I think called sidings in US?) I did a couple of jobs, then they kept coming! |

No, it's about survival at the moment. You looking to return to UK then? |
