    Isn't there a place in the corridor downstairs in the Eyre Square Centre that used to do bandanas? I could be wrong, maybe it's gone...

    It's the answer to all life decorating and crafty needs if pinterest is to be believed.

    Maybe some of the sports shop might have one from an advertising campaign. It's a long shot I know.

    Trying to find plastic transparent sheet 35" x 35" (Very Large) to cover a large picture, instead of glass. Cregal guys very helpful, but my size is too big. Have contacted JFC plastics too, any suggestions?

    Hey all,
    Had to break some tiles in my bathroom because there was a leaking pipe under the floor. Can not get these tiles any more and do not want to tile the whole bathroom again just for 6 tiles.

    Is there any place in galway that can make a custom tile if you give them a sample tile?

    Also i found tiles very similar but they are 33cm in size and the tiles in the bathroom are 31cm. tiler said it would be hard to cut them with out having a sharp edge.

    this must a be a common problem. Any one find a solution with out having to do the whole bathroom again? Any where in galway?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,251 ✭✭✭bonzodog2


    I would think it would be very easy to remove sharp edges with an angle grinder

    Try Pat Rynn Engineering , they could have large sheets of perspex or polycarbonate that they can cut to size

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,655 ✭✭✭✭Tokyo


    How big is the bathroom? When you start going down the route of custom tiles it may actually be cheaper to just redo the floor in modern tiles rather than getting six tiles custom made.

    Failing that, is there anywhere else in the bathroom where you could salvage six tiles from? Under the bath for example?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,741 ✭✭✭Irishgoatman


    Does anyone know of a good china/porcelain restorer in the Galway/Mayo area please.

    I just wanted to know if anyone could point me in the right direction as regards getting a house cleaned that is fairly manky? Manky in the sense that beer bottles and food have been left lying around for a bit and dirty floors etc. I know there are cleaners who advertise at 10e an hour but you could hardly expect them to clean a house in a pretty mank state?

    We would clean it ourselves but exams on now and giving keys back very soon!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 539 ✭✭✭chinacup


    Cheapest place to get oil heating for the boiler in Galway? 200e worth only lasting 2 months last time, anyone who's shopped around lately and knows their prices I would much appreciate your input!

    Check poster wall in local shops, tell them over the phone about the state of the place and let them decide what to charge.

    It is possible. You can get Doves Farm Pasta Flour in Evergreens and Joyce's, Tesco have Roma Pasta and Pizza Flour.
    McCambridge's and Morton's of Galway might be worth a try, too. They tend to stock stuff like this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,675 ✭✭✭ronnie3585


    McCambridges have it.

    Mmmm pizza!

    If headphones rather than earbud/plug type would suit you try the 2euro shop in Mainguard St, I got some there a while back, and although the padding hasn't lasted well, they still work, and the sound quality is OK. Included inline volume control.

    Should be available in all the major DIY places but Tripart on the Tuam Road is a great spot for fixings/brackets & bolts.
