    I have a little alcove inside the front porch that needs something done with it so I'm looking to source some good quality timber to panel the walls, around the pipe and possible the bottom as well. I've tried Woody's, Cork Builders and B&Q with no luck so I'm looking for any suggestions in Cork.

    Any ideas welcome......

    Why not fit a cabinet there? It can be made to hide the pipe as well

    I'd prefer not to go with a cabinet. The idea I had was to put timber panels on the walls and around the pipe and then I have a really nice piece of bog oak that I'm going to clean up and use as a feature in there.

    Thanks for the suggestion though.

    :confused: Not sure what you mean by 'panelling' Normally I would think of dark mahogany squares - king of 'Gentleman's library' theme. Any timber floor product should work such as cheap 'parawood/parquet' and simply stick on the walls. There will be a bit of cutting/fettling to get a symmetrical fit ( bit like bathroom tiles ) no matter what you use.?

    You could line it with veneered MDF, Woodworkers, McMahons and other supply this. Use some beading to trim the edges.
