.............if anyone is interested.
I'm almost at the end of this very long kitchen project. Now, --- should I crack open a bottle of champagne and throw it on the floor? (and drink it up, of course)! Elaine http://i3.tinypic.com/x282vs.jpg http://i3.tinypic.com/x286c0.jpg |

What a nice, roomy, airy kitchen you have and the tile turned out lovely. I'd say crack open the bottle - but don't crack it on the floor. Don't mess up the pretty tile! kili |

This is positively weird, as I've used tinypic myself many times to host pictures. Now I can't even get to their website. I'll have to do some investigating.

I'm sure you've seen it, just didn't register... If you check at any tile emporium... most all tile manufacturers produce matching trim and cove tile for each of their products. There are various configurations but essentially they look like this: http://www.infotile.com.au/oldeengli...cessories2.jpg Cove tiles are typically recommended where tile flooring can get wet and/or the floor will be subjected to wet mopping... like bathrooms and kitchens. Naturally you can get by without the tile cove base but it's a much more functional and nicer looking installation with. I can guarantee you that if you use wood base moldings for a tiled kitchen floor it won't be six months and they will look like crap... that is unless you never spill anything or wash your kitchen floor. You can get by with vinyl strip cove molding that's set with adhesive, it'll offer some protection from moisture but it won't look nice with ceramic tile flooring. I wouldn't consider installing a tile kitchen floor without the tile cove molding... adds very little cost (no more than decent wood molding) and very little additional labor. Sheldon |

They save tile and labor, they don't care that the wood cabinets will warp/shrink/expand and break away and leave a horrid looking gap, that will also trap water that will make a bad situation much worse, and that some day you may want to change cabinets or do some renovation and with no tiles in those area you have a major (and costly) addition to your job... probably will need to redo the entire floor. And your counter surface will be about an inch lower... an inch is a lot, ask any woman. hehe Anyone considering building new or doing a kitchen/bath renovation must insist on ceramic cove tiles and any tile work be installed over the entire floor first, then set the cabinetry over it.... it's like maybe $100 extra material and the crew is there installing anyway so it's only a little extra labor... but contactors are thieves... they know that the vast majority of their customers are ignorant about building. You'd be amazed on how many things they cheat on, $50 here, $100 there, even $5 and $10 in hundreds of places, it all adds up to big bucks... and then down the road the customer pays ten times more to redo all the schlock.

Elaine, I think your kitchen is perfect. It's very workable and yet cozy, warm, and inviting. I don't think you could ask for more. My problem with tinypic must have been muy ISP. I tested for everything possible and nothing seemed wrong with my machine or configuration. I changed nothing, yet this afternoon I am once again able to access tinypic to view or load pictures. Do post again when absolutely everything is done (or other interim shots, as well). -- Wayne Boatwright @¿@¬ _____________________ |

Aww...thanks Wayne. I'm glad you can access the tiny pic thing. I'm hosting a baby shower for a neighbour on June 10th. Everything must be finished by then! Elaine |
