It looks fab Thanks @marshall5858 we have natural oak laminate and osprey stone benchtop / just unsure if I'm happy without the plaster bulkhead:( Re: Simonds express Westbury Beckett facade 164Nov 25, 2016 7:51 pm skinders78 Marshall5858 Oooh I love that, which laminate did you choose? It looks fab Thanks @marshall5858 we have natural oak laminate and osprey stone benchtop / just unsure if I'm happy without the plaster bulkhead:( I must admit, it's not something I've ever noticed before you mentioned it on your thread, have you raised it with Simonds? Now I'm wondering what ours will look like.. Re: Simonds express Westbury Beckett facade 165Nov 25, 2016 8:09 pm No I haven't as yet- the kitchen only just been put in - but I have a variation stating what I wanted... i think I will call the site supervisor Monday Re: Simonds express Westbury Beckett facade 166Nov 25, 2016 8:12 pm Just a personal preference I guess, I like them the way they are though Building Simonds Hudson viewtopic.php?f=31&t=80646 Re: Simonds express Westbury Beckett facade 167Nov 25, 2016 8:47 pm I just checked our drawings, we have laminate too. Did you have to pay extra to change it to the plaster bulkhead? Re: Simonds express Westbury Beckett facade 168Nov 25, 2016 9:44 pm No it wasn't any extra to change that- if I had white cupboards it prob wouldn't bother me- but I thought the white bulkhead looked tidy maybe they haven't finished yet but I would have expected it to have been as drawn in our plan - I do some research before I get him to change it lol Re: Simonds express Westbury Beckett facade 169Nov 25, 2016 10:08 pm Actually now that I'm looking at the pic closely I can see the 13cm bulk head - i didn't think that there would be any laminate on top of cupboards but it's growing on me lol- Re: Simonds express Westbury Beckett facade 170Nov 27, 2016 6:13 am I'm having the blinds people come and measure up next week- still a little undecided but I'm thinking to have the sunscreen inside frame and the block out hung on the outside of frame. Do I get it to roll under or over ??

Do I get it to roll under or over ?? I would prefer roll under...it will be close to the frame and blocks more light... Re: Simonds express Westbury Beckett facade 172Nov 28, 2016 7:55 pm Need some advice - they have done my bulk head incorrectly in kitchen and I'm trying to decide if I should get them to change it as per the plan or not? Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ This is the pic I supplied the draft person and when they did my drawing he said a 1300mm bulk head on my plans which isn't correct it should have been twice that size- but I guess I don't mind having the laminate in that area- so in drawing the bulk head should only be on top of the cupboards and not where the rangehood is- do u think if I leave it as is that the rangehood will look smaller .... or should I ask for that section of bulkhead to be removed? I'm prob being fussy but I want everything perfect:) lol don't we all??

Maybe ask if you can go in and hold the rangehood up to see how it will look.
