Loving the kitchen makeover, that tap is a real showstopper! Poor Pumpkin it’s such a worry when they’re not well, glad he’s on the mend ❤
Loving the new kitchen the mess and upheaval will be so worth it and poor Pumpkin sorry to hear he was unwell but seems like he is back to his self again I love those two kittens adorable sending you a hug Pumpkin ❤️
I am so glad that Pumpkin is feeling better, people always say how independent cats are, but they react to noise and strangers in and out and their stress levels rise and they will pick up on their humans stress too. Lesley, Victoria, BC. Canada.
So pleased that Pumpkin is feeling better. They really are a worry ❤
So glad Pumkin is recovering from whatever ailed him , quite a mystery! It’s miraculous how I V fluids work , I had the very same thing with my dog and once he was given the fluids completely cured 🙏
So glad Pumpkin is better. It's so stressful when they are not well. It's coming together lovely. The tap is fabulous xx
Good morning Iwan, sometimes cats get stressed when having changes around them and can express it in different ways. I don't know if you know Feliway. I use the plug in pheromones diffuser. They have different products to adjust to the cats needs. I use the Optimum, and I notice the difference. When it finishes Max 🐈 gets more irritating and bothers little Lucy. Options for the space under the worktop: 1) build a new cupboard with door for extra storage out of sight, with the new shelving, maybe you wouldn't have enough closed storage. 2) build a new cupboard, cut out a cat door in the actual cupboard door, and keep the cat's litter box out of sight, and they will have their privacy. You can install a shelf to keep some of the cats cleaning gadgets. 3) you can build a cupboard with a draw out to install recycling bins. There are different bin sizes. By the way, I love the tap!
Can't wait to see it all finished Mr C,it's going to look classy. Glad Pumpkin is feeling much better now bless him. ❤
Hi wonderful vlog as always, loving the kitchen renovations, but please just one last push please 😅 just replace the floor in the kitchen, you have done all this great work in your kitchen just go for that last little bit of wow factor you have already spent a lot on you tap and worktops finish it off completely with a nice new floor you will be so pleased that you did it will make the whole kitchen👌🏻please please 😂🙏🏻🙏🏻❤

Also hard to remove if you change your mind later.
It’s looking fantastic. If I was you I would use the off cut of worktop to either make a shelf where you have the tools or a chopping board.
Dilly (declutterdolies)has just had a plaster effect wall done by her husband, in her dining/kitchen area it’s navy and stunning 😍. I’m sure it can be done in all colours. Renovations are looking great, well done.
Gorgeous Kitchen Makeover !! I'm so glad that Pumpkin is okay !! ❤
Maybe have the spare worktop on slide outs under the existing worktop to give yourself some extra counter top if you need it at times.
The kitchen is progressing well,it sounds like you had a nightmare. Hopefully things will settle down, and work will finish soon. I hope Pumpkin is fully recovered it's so worrying when they are unwell.
Definately keep the laminate. I keep 1 extra boxes of flooring.. thank god! Things happen eg my tiles cracking due to vibrations from a building site nearby.. so can get the broken tiles replaced. Texture in kitchen on wall is hard to clean.. all the fat and dust will stick on the texture. If you do do texture, make sure you use a wipeable paint. Remember IKEA for small kitchen gagets etc.. I have a pull out bin under my sink.. just cut a bit out to fit around the pipes. Also pull out runners to put on shelves to make access to thinks in deep shelves easier ie. Makes it more like a draw. Fun vlog. Kitchen looking great.
Thank goodness you got him to the vet quickly. Once when I had 2 kittens and they play fought alot one got very sick and only after much searching of his body was a small puncture wound where the other had bitten a bit too hard
Morning Iwan , so glad pumpkin is back to normal and chasing mittens about , you could use a piece of the worktop as a chopping board to save your work space from scratching / scoring . Can’t wait to see everywhere finished ,thanks for sharing huni hugs to you and the kittens Katie 🩶🖤🩶
Sorry to hear your kitty wasn't well. Glad he's doing better now ❤ Maybe the left over cupboard could have the laminated work top on it. Making it extra storage. Or even to put shoes in. The top can hold plants or place to sit as you out your shoes on
Morning Mr C x wow that tap I love it x The kitchen is going to be spectacular x So pleased pumpkin is feeling better x
Sorry to hear poor Pumpkin has been poorly , love to both kitties x
You could have fitted another 300m base unit in that end space . Thats what i did ,as you can never have enough cupboards . Looks good sofar ❤️👍
Loving the Kitchen so far❤️ Great to hear that pumpkin is feeling better
Wow mr c love that tap beautiful, kitchen is going to look fantastic when finished, glad pepper is ok now ❤
We are always on edge when our pets are not well, must have been lovely when he recognised you. Tap is amazing don't bother trying to hide the heat setting, you will draw more attention to the tiny tab if you try to cover it up. You should buy a larger roller for painting, only £4.99 in HB and you will get the job done quicker and less work too. Great video with advice for anyone doing a similar job..
You have such a good way of explaining what is going to happen with the walls and work tops. Really enjoy your KZread channel.
Hello mrcarrington, slow and steady win the race. Awesome explanation. Are you sure you’re not an Architect? . Your kitchen will look spectacular and welcoming. I am so glad, Pumpkin is back to normal, out and about. Can’t wait to see the finished Kitchen.
Evening ❤ I was thinking the top part of the unit could possibly be made into a bench with the open space with cushions for the kittens also absolutely loving the tap 🤎
You are so clever Mr C. You always answer my problems i.e where to get trades people. Kitchen looks good already with the special tap.👍
Wondering if Pumpkin is stressed out with the renovations? Bless his heart ❤️ with the off cut maybe a small side table? You can get inexpensive hairpins legs in all different heights. As long as you can screw into that material. Maybe a cat table in front of a window so the kittens can look out a window.
That tap is glorious 😊. So pleased to hear Pumpkin is better.
well cut the extra countertop part you need and the other part that's left make a slightly higher backsplash behind the sink...
Loving the renovations aww poor pumpkin glad he is feeling much better he gave the tap his seal of approval 😃 mittens just looked like what is so special about the new tap lol. Just watching Luke’s video where u go to IKEA and he has had his 1st McDonald’s apple pie you and him make me laugh so much. You had so much fun in IKEA with that trolley iwan 🤣😂🤣 have a great day xxx
Can't wait to see the end process, great work, Iwan. Hope Pumpkin feels better. ❤️ 😻
They off cut of the cabinet looks like it could be a coffee table or maybe if you have room at the end of your bed as a bench, or somewhere else as a bench…TV stand even. Glad your roof is fixed finally too. Maybe one of the counter off cuts could be used on a small table somewhere or on the end of your sofa in the loft as a table top, or if you have an ottoman and want a table top for it…maybe add handles and wood to it to add support (frame and back with wood). Looking forward to seeing more completed renovation work.
OMG, Mr C. I'm ♡♡♡ing the brass tap. The laminate worktop is a good choice it looks amazing, too. I like your choice of green you have selected for the units, and the brass handles are stunning. Thank you for sharing. The links are brilliant/handy. Have a great Sunday x
I remember when our kitchen was being renovated. Lots of work, messy, and very chaotic. All worth it now. We have marble work tops, too. We chose black sink and taps, yours looks gorgeous 😍
Thanks for showing your renervations the tap looks very posh. So glad pumpkin is feeling so much better it’s so worrying when your pets aren’t well xx
How the kitchen tap matches the cupboard handles!!!!
I love watching your videos and I'm so happy to hear pumpkin is feeling better ❤... Home renovations can be so stressful but I'm sure you are going to love it when it's completed. Just a suggestion but I would think again about a textured paint in the kitchen... Kitchens obviously have a certain amount of grease and food splashes from cooking, if you have texture on your walls, especially by the hob then It's going to be extremely difficult to clean any splashes or grease from the walls, maybe a wipe clean paint would be a better idea.
That tap 🚰 love! So excited for the kitchen reno

Awww poor pumpkin what a worry,glad he's feeling better .love the tap so refreshing to see something different,so much choice on the tiles,it's going to look FABULOUS Ewan 😊
Wow the kitchen is looking so good. The colour called setting plaster by Farrow & Ball (matched at B&Q of course 😉) would be gorgeous and the pinky tone with the green cabinets would look fab. I know what you mean about the texture but maybe a flat lime wash rather than texture would be less of a hassle and easier to clean? Anyway whatever you do will be fab I'm sure. Loving Sort your life Out. Top notch tv.
Coming along nicely 😃 I would use the marble for some small table tops maybe. Gotta say I prefer the wood floor in the kitchen. Love the sink and tap great finds.
So glad Pumpkin is well again!!
Oh poor Pumpkin! So glad he's feeling better,possibly the stress of the renovations? Depending on the size of the marble off cut you could make a plant stand,just add legs! X

Never thought of that, my cat got ill a few years ago after Fireworks, I always stay in with him as he gets so scared but he got a bladder infection which vet says is common with stress, something I never knew and I've had cats all my life.
So pleased to hear Pumpkin is now nack to bouncing around and fit and healthy. How worried you must have been. You renovations are beautiful, you have really chosen stunning choices of colours and products. Fabulous tap by the way. I watch every vlog you make and enjoy watching them. You are so talented. Give Pumpkin and Mittens a big cuddle, just love Tabby cats they're the best 😻😻
WOW! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ on the tap, it is absolutely gorgeous! I looked it up and I cannot believe the price! I thought, surely it must be brass-plated. But, no - it is solid brass! 👍 I’m thinking it might have been cast from a mold of an antique. Beautiful! 🙋♀️🇺🇸🥰👏👏👏‼️
Love that your both still on here and continuing with sort your life out. Love seeing what you Rob and Dilly come up with!! ❤
Love the sink everything's coming along , glad Pumpkin is feeling better
Love the kitchen, my kitchen is painted in setting plaster ( a dupe for the farrow and ball colour and I love it) I love your idea of a texture though. Pink definitely makes a kitchen feel cosy!! Glad Pumpkin is on the mend😸 The tap is amazing, that's what is nice about a small kitchen the little details really stand out. You are doing a fantastic job😁
That tap is beautiful. So mucha inspired. Im in love with it. Poor pumpkin. I hope the kitty gets well soon. Milo my dog decided it was a good idea to rip his claw out but he is fine he just looked at me like what! but he’s a grumpy old man . Who chases the short clawed otters. Pets are great.😊
I think the star of the show (well, apart from the kittens, of course) is that tap! What a find. You’ll be pleased when all the work is finished - it’s such a disturbance having the kitchen done. Thanks for the updates, Mr C, great video.
Wow the renovations look great. Thank you.
So glad you luv your pets so much you took Pumpkin it immediately. Glad hes better. I have pet insurance which is great . 28 a month and pays 90 percent of vet bill. Well worth it. ❤ Have a wonderful week.❤🇨🇦
I'm loving your kitchen tap and am looking forward to the end result. Pumpkin appears to be gulping his water which may mean he's still a bit under the weather. If he continues to be thirstier than usual u should mention it to his doc. I know your home renovation is going to be beautiful.
Glad to hear that Pumpkin is doing well. It's always upsetting when a pet is ill. They cannot tell you what is wrong.
Looking great so far!!
Great video love it😊
Maybe puy a piece of wood across the top and turn into a window seat..from that shelfing unit😍🤗
Thank you so much for the excellent advice ❤

We used our off cuts of laminates to make a set of three shelves above the coffee area to house tea/coffee/sugar etc. they were similar to the floating shelf concept

Morning Mr Ç,kitchen is going to look fabulous, plus the taps they are just you,you have great taste if you want it just get it or you will regret it. Glad pumpkin is feeling better you will give him lots of tlc.❤🐱❤🐱❤🤗🤗🤗
The tap is gorgeous but all those "problems" is what puts me off starting mine. Im sure the end result will be well worth it though😊
Oy! What a week! Glad Pumpkin is feeling better. Looks like you have your work cut out for you for a while 🙄🫤. Can hardly wait for the completion reveal. - love the faucet !
It's going to be gorgeous when it's finished, love the sink and that amazing tap! I'm so glad that poor Pumpkin is better, it must have been very worrying for you. How sweet the way he drank out of the tap! Take care ❤🇮🇪
Looking good!
Kitchen coming along nicely Iwan, love your tap and sink, it is very stressful we had a new kitchen a year ago and l was so relieved when it was finished, part of the stress is having all these different people in your home as well, look foward to seeing the finished kitchen makeover, glad Pumpkin doing ok, they are your fur babies so we worry when anything is wrong x
This is sooooo helpful! Thank you so much. And it’s looking fab. Hope Pumpkin is fully on the mend xx
Per the shelves: Maybe they would work in the office. You can hang them higher on the wall (upside down from what I saw on the floor), put a piece of wood under the open area for another shelf and put books on display on the bottom shelf and pretty bits and bobs on the top. Just a suggestion. They can be painted to match your walls. They are nice pieces none the less. Enjoy your reno... that TAP is just gorgeous!!!
Looking fabulous already
Hello your home is going to be fabulous I always look forward to your videos sending lots of love 😊❤️xx
You look great in glasses Mr C 😊

Hi Iwan so glad that pumpkin is alot better poor little chap, that tap is stunning love it, love the kitchen makeover the worktops r fab love the colour can't wait to c it finished, have a great weekend lots of love 💞💞💞
OMG thank goodness little man's ok now. Could be a bit stressed by what's going on, cats hate disruption. What a worry for you. I can't stand it when our fur babies are poorly. You should have roped Rob (SYLO) in to do your kitchen😉 I don't know how you're still sane with everything that's going on, I get my knickers in a knot when things are upside down lol. LOVE the tap, it is stunning and looks extremely expensive too. The end result is going to be gorgeous. The floor tiles look good, as you say, just replace where needed. It's getting there Mr.C🥰
Hi Mr Carrington great taps love it, so thankful Pumpkin is feeling 💕 another great haul.
Wow! Love everything! Especially the tap! Xx
Beautiful worktop, anxious to see your finished project. I am planning to have a new worktop in my kitchen and update faucet. You are giving me some good, helpful ideas. Thank you
Love the tap it’s so elegant ❤ your home is going to look amazing when it’s finished looking forward to the great reveal ❤
Thanks for posting the link for the tap! Think we'll have to order one.
