A fast-growing new timber building company is supplying clients across the country with sustainably-built garden rooms which employ West Fraser’s SterlingOSB Zero as a primary material for fabricating the main structure and interior partitions. Okopod was established four years ago by James Home to manufacture stylish, high quality timber pods which can be used as home offi ces, additional semi-outdoor spaces or simply as a bolthole to sit and enjoy nature. SterlingOSB Zero is available in


a range of sies and thicknesses as well as a T version ideal for  ooring and decking applications. The high-performance panel product has also earned BBA approval and meets the requirements of NHBC Technical.

The height of luxury with Keller


Classic styles are still very much on trend, and Keller’s all-new Marbling Moods kitchen is a clear sign that this admiration is unlikely to disappear soon. This kitchen maintains modern utility, form, and function alongside its retro design. The suspended cabinets are easy to access and emphasise spaciousness and accessibility, while the island, shielded in marble, features a sink for both classical style and pragmatic benefi t. The Watford door blends well with the rest of the kitchen, thanks in particular to its handle-less design.


The colours in this sophisticated set take inspiration from polished 20th century style. Elegant walnut tones synchronise with fashionable olive- green matt lacquer for a nostalgically retro aura.

Since 2018 it has been a requirement under British Standards BS5385-Part 1 that all wet areas – domestic and commercial – should be protected with an adequate tanking membrane prior to tiling. A tanking system (waterproof coating) – such as BAL Waterproof 1C – should be installed onto backgrounds before tiling commences. This is because tiles, adhesives and grouts themselves are not inherently waterproof and will allow water to pass through – potentially causing water damage, damp and foul odours to occur on the background or substrate. BAL Waterproof 1C is a ready-mixed waterproof coating that can be applied easily with a brush or trowel in only one coat.

Crack-bridging up to 3 mm, it is a fast-track solution, with tiling possible in 2 hours. Priming isn’t needed on most substrates – including plasterboard. Where priming is needed – use BAL Primer 1C, quick drying one-coat primer. Easy to apply straight out of the bucket, it provides coverage of up to 6 m2


shower, bathroom or wetroom. It also includes Fibre Strand Technology for improved strength.
