Just to add tyo what ric said.

Kitchen splashback and ducking under units. I ALWAYS manage to get a cut or two in my head from those bloody cooker hoods :mad2:

As for Tysfoot bathroom floors, never had to cut round toilets yet, always get them removed etc. Have a good plumber who comes at the drop of a hat if needed too, but Im getting good at fitting those flexi pipes now.
