I'm seriously considering getting floorboards now - a bit worried on the extra cost over tiles though! Your floorboard colour really works well with the splashback!

Thanks cous, so do we [quote"carlswil"]Your floor looks great. [/quote] Thanks carlswil, hopefully when we get home tonight and the first coat is on it will look even better mm77 Wow.. Look fantastic mate. Don't mind PM me the contact details of the supplier and installer. Pm sent With a few extra details 123Crystal Wow, your floors look awesome! I'm seriously considering getting floorboards now - a bit worried on the extra cost over tiles though! Your floorboard colour really works well with the splashback! Thanks, tbh we're not fans of tiles outside of wet areas which meant we were looking at timber of some kind pretty much from the get go. Solid is definately the most expensive option, but equally you can get a really great effect with engineered floating though depending on the brand you won't neccisarily save much over solid. Equally if you have a search around the forum you'll see a lot of people using laminate floating , quickstep etc and there is also the timber look vinyl floating Karndean etc if you want the look but need something more hard wearing. So lots of options for you 123Crystal, best advice I can give is get out in your local area and find whats around and available locally.
