    Plumber plyed the floor. Not bad, only needed 2 hits of feather
    Last pic is my last pencil.

    Love the look of marmoleum. I've said it before but nobody seems to consider it as a alternative to karndean, amtico etc.

    Same here. Not many guys are prepared to fit it either. At least I know I get if if I'm pricing one near me

    I did a marmo job not that long ago, it were the first one ive ever done, it were flat lay thank god wouldn't like to fit it on the cove.
    I didn't realise that when welding its not like welding safety and its more of a filler than a weld, i were sweating a bit when i were practicing i wonderd why the weld were coming straight out haha.
    but i don't mind the stuff lovely to cut and it a more natural productwhich is always a plus

    Quite happy myself fitting marmoleum too, dont get much call for it always find it nice and relaxing taking my time templating the area then dropping it in, hate it when people hook it in takes the skill out of doing it.

    Its a great alternative to lvt and i love the way that it doesn't look plastic like lots of lvt but its just not pushed the same.It was laid at my dads sports club years ago and they clean it and polish it up, still looks great.

    Think I've only ever done a handful of this stuff, never domestic though.
    looks well in the bathroom.

    Proper stuff, been a year or two since i fitted any. Did spend over two years non stop fitting nothing else. Template, backmark, scribe. No hook knives allowed!

    I love the stuff! Like has been said, it just can't be rushed so good steady days. Fitted miles in hospitals and it's such a waste there as I think it suits the domestic environment perfectly. It's going in my bathroom when I can be bothered to actually do it ;)
