Grosfillex Panelling - Deletions

It looks like Grosfillex might be culling a few more deisigns from the range of waterproof wall panelling.

We haven't had official notification yet but it looks like Baltic Blue (Evol 3000 Range), Birch (Ambiance Range), Beige Marble (Topline) and possibly Beige Wood (Topline) might be dropped - although this last panel might continue in 4m lengths( there is also a 2.6m length that we do not have on the site at the moment.

Usually when Grosfillex delete products it is to make way for new designs but we have haad no notification of this as yet. As soon as we do we will post the details on the Blog.

Outasight Back In Stock

The Outasight is now back in stock after a delay of two weeks with deliveries.

The manufacturers were waiting a shipment of gas struts (the bit that holds the arm open)



These are now back in stock and all back orders will be cleared tomorrow (Friday 8th Feb) All order received this week will be despatched next Thursday for delivery Friday (15th)

Blanca

Although we have only just launched the Blanca range of matt white ceiling panels from Decos, we have just been informed that two of the panel lengths will no longer be available in the Classic White. They will, however, be available in Ultra White so the range now reads as follows:

2.5m - Classic White
3.0m - Ultra White
5.0m - Classic White
6.0m - Ultra White

Previously the panels were only available in Classic White so at least customers looking for a matt finish panel for their bathroom ceiling have two choices of colour - even if the length options have been reduced.

Spaceline 333

We have been running a clearance promotion on Spaceline 333 wall panels (these are a wider version of the 250mm Spaceline but with a v-groove joint).

Spaceline 333 is being discontinued and stocks of the Silver Grey and Jade are now depleted. There may be some more of this product left with the manufacturers in Belgium but at present the UK warehouse has no more available. There is still some stock available of in Blue and Rose (42 packs and 44 packs at time of posting).

If ordering online please use our "pay offline" facility as we can check stock levels and arange delivery before processing your payment.

Spaceline 250 is not being discontinued and there are healthy stocks available of all colours.

replacement shower curtains - now available online

We have just added all of the Outasight spares to our shopping cart system.

Click here if you need to order a replacement shower curtain or any of the components that make up the Outasight.

We hope to add an exploded view of the Outasight so that you can see which bits are which - this should make product selection a bit easier. In the meantime if you have any problems please give us a ring.

Magic Black

The UK importers of Decos wall panels, Consortias, are currently out of stock of Magic Black panels. Decos in Belgium are running more of this profile next week and stock should be available in the UK for delivery week commencing 27th November.

Sorry for any inconvenience this might cause.

UPDATE 24.11.06 - now back in stock

Outasight Offer

We have a special free delivery offer running until Christmas on the Outasight cocealed shower curtain system.



This offer applies to deliveries to the UK mainland only - see the following page for more details or click the image above FREE DELIVERY

We're Only Human!

A customer has just pointed out that our website is out of date. We asked what she meant and it turns out that we have put the wrong graphic on our site for our November special offers - we had the April graphic showing.

This has now been ammended to show the correct image highlighting our extended offer on our Mosaic wall panels.

Sorry for any confusion caused - this only applied to the graphic, any orders placed during November have been charged at the correct sale price of £9.99

Cold Weather Conditions

As the temperatures are starting to drop we thought we'd remind you about keeping your panels inside to get to room temperature before attempting to cut them. This makes them less brittle than cutting them when they freezing cold.

Also, keep any panel adhesive at room temperature as it can start to get very thick when cold making it difficult to squeeze out and putting extra strain on your skeleton gun.

Christmas Closing

We're not too keen on mentioning Christmas in November but we've already been asked by our suppliers if we have decided on our Christmas shutdown period.

We haven't finalised the exact dates yet but we will more than likely be closing at 3.00pm on Wed 20th Dec and will re-open on Wed 3rd Jan (I believe Mon 1st & Tues 2nd are Bank Holidays).

If these dates change we wil post notification.

Gallery Update

We have added quite afew new images to our customer gallery including a very nice shower refurbishment by Mr Cave of Reading.



Mineral Beige Tile Marble was used from our Grosfillex range of waterproof panelling and it has transformed the room - see the gallery for more before and after shots.

Mould Free Grout and Sealant

We recently came across two products that looked interesting in that they both have been manufacturered to incorporate Microban, an antibacterial material that can be added to products to make them mould free.

The products in question were grout and silicone sealant - both products that can be adversely affected by mould growth (although faulty application/installation can also be a major cause of these types of products failing).

The grout is made by BAL - details can be found on their website at www.building-adhesives.com (look under rthe catalogue section of the BAL pages)

The silicone is Forever White by Everbuild - details on www.everbuild.co.uk

Discontinued Lines

There is still some product left with the UK importers of a few of the recently deleted Grosfillex wall panels.

Evol 3000 Satin White is still available at the time of posting as is Ambiance Natural Wood.

There are also some panels availble that we have never sold via the web site namely Evol 2000 in Grey Marble, Beige Marble, Peach Marble and Gren Marble. These are 250mm wide boards, 2.7m long and come in at £12.99 per panel. A flush effect version of Ambiance Pink Marble is also available.

Baltic Blue, Evol 2000 Dark Blue and Mineral Turquoise are now depleted and we will alter the web site to refelct this.

Outasight Spares List

We have now been selling the Outasight concealed bath shower screen for nearly three years. Up until now we have had very little call for spares for the product but obvioulsy nothing lasts forever and we know that customers are going to require spares for their Outasights at some point.

Following a meeting with Outasight last week we have now been given a price list for spares - we will be completely re-vamping the web site in the next few weeks and will be adding the spares to our shopping cart system. In the meantime just give us a ring if you require any spares.

Retail price incl. V.A.T.

Strut £25.00
Curtain £39.99
End cap £4.99
Strut bit £4.99
Hinge £7.99
Curtain clip £4.99
Magnet £5.99
Curtain pole £9.99
Plastic strip £5.99
(for end of replacement curtain if not saved out of original curtain)

Gallery Revamp

We've had a large number of Outasight customers that have sent in photos for our Customer Gallery so we have had to completely revamp it to fit in all the images and tidy up the appearance.

Some of the customers have done a superb job of remodelling their bathrooms as can be seen by the following examples.



The neat, minimal appearance of many of the rooms has not been spolied by installing a shower curtain or bath shower screen - the Outasight is certainly the right choice to maintain a clean, uncluttered look.

Tinto Wall Panelling Range Extended

We have just added two more colours to the Tinto range of decorative wall panelling.

This versatile panel is suitable for use in a variety of different rooms around the house. Its matt finish means it will not look out of place in the bedroom, living room or dining room while its waterproof structure means that it is still perfectly suitable for use in bathrooms and showers.

As well as adding two more colours we have introduced a special offer across the Tinto range with the panels now available at just £9.49 per panel (plus carriage).

Cork Tiles

A customer has just asked us if it is possible to fix the panels over cork tiles - I've never tried this so I'm not exactly sure.

The panels will go up over anything - the only thing you have to be concerned about in this instance is that you are relying on the adhesive sticking to the cork tile, and the the cork tile sticking to the wall. If they are still fixed solidly then there should be no problem. Also, each panel holds the next panel in place so it's not so much of an issue as it would be with other forms of wall covering.

You could also mechanically secret-fix some of the panels (staple gun on plasterboard, screws on masonry) to back-up the adhesive. Any bathroom accessories fitted throught the panels will also act as mechanical fixings.

Clearance Line

Decos have produced two versions of their Spaceline range of panelling: a 250mm wide flush fit board and a 333mm wide v-groove board.

The smaller board has proved to be much more popular than the larger panel and so decos have taken the decision to stop producing the larger size. We have therefore started a promotion on the Spaceline 333 range which will run until the current stocks are exhausted.



The 250mm wide panels will continue to be made (which is a relief as it is our most popular panel!)

If you are unfamiliar with v-groove or flush fit joints please visit our main website as there are pages highlighting the differences. They can be seen at:
http://www.bathroommarquee.co.uk/help-flush.php
http://www.bathroommarquee.co.uk/help-vgroove.php

Spaceline Jade Added

We have added a fifth colour to the Spaceline range of panels - Jade.

This is a green marble effect panel and ties in niceley with the other marble Spaceline colours and will be sold at the same low price as the rest of the range.



We are expecting this to be a very popular choice, at present the only other colour in the Decos range is the Firenze Jad and Orion Lugano.

Ceiling Panelling Infill Strips Added

We have just added Silver and Gold effect infill strips for use in conjunction with our Labo ceiling panelling.



These are narrow self adhesive strips designed to fit in-between each panel and give a reflective highlight, breaking up the large expanse of plain white. Being self adhesive they are easy to fit and are available in 2.7m lengths in Silver or Gold effect finish.
