Thanks Orph, I'd love to increase ceiling height upstairs too but we have already stretched budget pretty much to max and still have colour selections to go and i'm sure i won't be happy with cat 1 for a lot of things eeeekkkk!!!! Stairs have been slightly upgraded, again would have loved to go all out and do lovely stunning timber staircase with glass balustrades but budget just won't stretch!
