In this episode we do lots of little jobs, and a couple of big ones, that really push the project and get us a few giant steps closer to moving the family back in.
A massive thank you goes to Glen from:
The Panel Company
for supplying our shower panels for free, we really appreciate it.
If you like the idea and want to see what other many, quality options The Panel Company can offer then please follow this link to their website.

Fantastic Adam, it’s really coming together isn’t it. Loved the excitement in your voice as you went room to room switching on the lights, can totally relate to that as I’m the same. Rich’s frame for a frame to accommodate your wide wall was brilliant, made a lovely difference, great workmanship.

Mate I couldn't believe it. I may never be asked that question again! It's strange how you think that someone is so famous that everyone must have heard of them, then you realise that they don't and it's just a generational thing!!! Hope you're well mate.

Interesting your knots came through. I always use Zinsser BIN for the knots. A shellac primer that's £20 a tin but comes in handy for other stuff. Mainly because it goes on easily, dries in 20 minutes, and it's white so much each to paint over!

Fabulous! It’s all looking really good Adam! Loving the excitement over the lights, made me chuckle. 😂 The last time I fitted shower panels was a totally different experience than you had. The customer bought them (they were the mdf ones) and was told to keep them flat so he laid them out on the lawn!! 🙄 The kitchen video will be something to look forward to. Hope you all have a great week. 👍🏼

Interesting solution to knots, I’ll have to give it a try. I resorted to using aluminium primer which works well. It’s very annoying when you put in all the hard work in prepping and then about 1 year later they bleed through.😤😤

Adam, make sure you DO NOT use fibre washers on your thermo-mixer shower bar. I did. After 8 years a drip developed that then ran back along the outside to the pipework and dripped onto the downstairs ceiling. RUBBER washers! Schoolboy error, but what a mistake!

@johnmason129 haha! Oh that! You've missed that being explained a good few episodes back! I was going to keep it, but the new finished floor would have been part way up the original bricks that made the cill losing the detail. I could have raised them up but that would have meant that it's no longer original feature so it lost its appeal to me, and that was that!
