    Is it just the wall tiling or did you tile the granite worktops and floor as well?

    I'm impressed by the fact you found time to do your own house, most of ours are left waiting for years, or is that just mine?

    Socket is too close to the sink (must be at least 300mm in UK) or is it waterproof.

    i must say, that bathroom looks great. what did you use to adhere the tiles to the ceiling ? i've done some very small spaces when the ceiling was at 45% in a loft conversion bathroom, but never anything like that before. wouldn't mind doing my own bathroom like that. if i ever get round to it that is.
