Very nice job, I ordered similar wt and splashbacks but they dont sell edge trims, they didnt even know what I was talking about 🙃. What trim are you using here ? Thank you
@LTWCarpentry yeah I thought that, I tried 12mm trim and it was 2mm too narrow even though splashback was 12mm too. I'll try again on the next one, don't want go through all that contact adhesive shenanigans again 😁
Can i ask a silly question😅! How can i get matching worktops with splashbacks? I want to have the pvc panels but i cant seem to find matching worktops which is the look im going for. Is there a specific term lol
I used my mitre saw buddy, I’m not sure if scotia trim would cut this as it’s ally, to be fair you could always cut it with a hack saw and run a file over it, alternatively you could buy the plastic trim and cut the with scotia shears, your saw will do it but only do it if you feel comfortable msg
Again really helpful mate - Nearly time to do my own kitchen and using this video as a brush up. Can I ask with these sorta splashbacks behind a cooker - is the Glass panel enough to prevent it warping? None of the laminate manufacturers want to say yes though I can understand why. Just wanted to see if it's safe as I love the idea of one of these full height upstands but don't wanna set it on fire seeing as 99% of them are MDF or fibreboard xD
Cheers for the comment buddy, I would say yes they are, especially as they screw through the board, I get what you mean…. And it is frustrating when they manufacturers cover there own arses isn’t it ! But this one has been here well over a year now and is fine. Hope that helps buddy 👍🏻
@@LTWCarpentry boards will be fixed to studs but was going to pink grip the backsplash to the mdf depending. if someone can confirm if it works tho haha. Probably go with a PU if in doubt.
@@RollCorruption I would go with something like stick like or even a decent silicon over pink grip mate, in my experience pink grip isn’t the best stuff in the world l, there’s loads of better adhesives out there. What’s your nearest shop ? I.e screwfix/ tool station or something similar ? I would be happy to recommend something if you would like ?
Nice work. Was wondering what work top joint you used for this job. With the square profile did you butt and clamp? If so what’s your method for removing the lam strip? Appreciate the Chanel,keep the vids coming! 👍🏻
Hi, thanks for the comment ! I cut the lam strip where it meets the other top then use a chisel to peel the lam strip off, this is the best method I’ve found so far but still very awkward to get off ! I’m trying to find a better method myself ! I use worktop bolts to connect the worktops together
@@LTWCarpentry I bet! I’ve just brought a new trend jig (the red one) which does smaller profile masons mitres. Suppose to be great with smaller profiles and square edges compared to the standard hockey stick. Was going to try this method if the jig didn’t turn up. Was concerned how well the edging comes off. Great vids and info All the best mate
Cheers mate ! I appreciate that ! Let me know how it comes out,I’m really happy with the results of butting up the square edge but always good to have another option isn’t it !!
No I’ve tried heating the strip in the past and it made a hell of a mess, I just work the chisel in from the bottom avoiding going anywhere near the Formica top of the work surface, hope this helps buddy
I am looking same worktop and splashback from howdens, if I am not wrong, its called square edge leminate Calacatta marble effect , plzz anyone correct me if I am wrong.
What this worktop called, I mean the name if u know and where u got it from ?
Great video, really helpful esp showing what to do around the window reveal. Many thanks my friend. Greetings from Frinton-on-Sea.!
Cheers for your comment buddy ! I really appreciate it !
That was a great job; really well done. Im just about to do the same in my own kitchen. Your vid will help me.
Awesome mate ! Really glad I could help ! Best of luck with doing it yourself ! If you need any help let me know !
@@LTWCarpentry how much does it cost approximately
Very nice job, I ordered similar wt and splashbacks but they dont sell edge trims, they didnt even know what I was talking about 🙃. What trim are you using here ?
Thank you
This is tile trim I used in here buddy, most diy shops sell it
@LTWCarpentry yeah I thought that, I tried 12mm trim and it was 2mm too narrow even though splashback was 12mm too. I'll try again on the next one, don't want go through all that contact adhesive shenanigans again 😁
Hi love splash back boar can I ask where you got it from. Thank you
Thank you, it’s from Howdens
Thx for this video! Where did you purchase this backsplash? Any good rules of thumb, as to where to plan for your seams?
Thanks for the comment, the splash backs come from Howdens. Not really just follow the tips in the video buddy 👍🏻
Can i ask a silly question😅! How can i get matching worktops with splashbacks? I want to have the pvc panels but i cant seem to find matching worktops which is the look im going for. Is there a specific term lol
That’s looks really nice! Where was the kitchen worktop purchased from? And what is the name of it?
I’m affraid I can’t remember the name as it was a few years ago but it was from Howdens.
Do you cut the trim on a mitre saw mate or did you use scotia shears? My saw is a 12 inch blade so not sure if it’s a bit much for the job

Looks beautiful! Do you have the name of the company the marble splashback was purchased from please?
Thank you, yes they came from Howdens.
Thanks a lot,Sir. Nice work. Please show how to.make cabinet to conceal the boiler pipework.
I wonder if that pink grip stuff will stick to fire resistant MDF... Looking cracking tho, nice work, love it.
Hmm not sure, I will test it and see if it works, thanks for your comment buddy
@@LTWCarpentry cheers, thinking of using a mdf backer to overboard my old and manky kitchen wall - make life easier for fixings
@@RollCorruption was you going to use the pink grip to stick it to the wall ?

Hi mate, what are the marble effect splashbacks made from and where did u get them from ? Cheers
Hi mate, they are a compact laminate and I got these from Howdens 👍🏻
@@LTWCarpentry Thank for that i will have a look at them, thanks for the info and the video
What is the name of the panel and where to buy,cost per sf? Thx 👍
I’m really sorry buddy but this was a long time ago now and I can’t ember name and cost but I brought it from Howdens. Hope that helps
You're a legend mate your videos are really useful
Nice one buddy, I really appreciate it 👍🏻
Would you say splashbacks are cheaper to buy and install (labour) wise?
Will you be doing it yourself or paying for a carpenter to fit ?
@@LTWCarpentry I would pay someone as I don't have the tools or patience lol

No I’ve tried heating the strip in the past and it made a hell of a mess, I just work the chisel in from the bottom avoiding going anywhere near the Formica top of the work surface, hope this helps buddy
Nice work mate
Cheers buddy !
What is the material called please?
It’s a Formica board they sell it in Howdens
@@LTWCarpentry thx. Found it in the states but haven’t found an installer yet.
Nicely done mate! That looks really good 👍
Cheers buddy ! 👍🏻
I am looking same worktop and splashback from howdens, if I am not wrong, its called square edge leminate Calacatta marble effect , plzz anyone correct me if I am wrong.
I’m afraid I can’t remember what it’s called as I did this a long time ago but this was purchased from Howdens if that helps
Small water spray water bottle with some dairy liquid works a treat when you are siliconing mate !
Yeah some times I do it this way, depends on if I have the water bottle or not. Thanks for the comment buddy.
I never get good walls like that 😢
This was a new build house buddy, I’m not normally that lucky either
where can I can get it please ?
They sell it in Howdens
Are they the “wellcut” blades you use?
Yes mate they are, work a treat for me. What do you use ?
@@LTWCarpentry same one 48t and 60t
