Hello, I'm just in process of renovating our kitchen, long time since
I've had to do any DIY, so turning to the experts...

I've gone with the Black Granite Work Top from B&Q and also bought the
70mm upstand to finish things off.

How do I go about fixing this to WorkTop & freshly tiled walls? Should
I use glue, if so what type, or is it a job purely for a silicon seal
and again if so any particular type. Where should it be applied etc.

Are you saying that you have tiled the walls down to the worktop and
you want to stick the upstand on top? If so, that is not going to
look right. The upstand should go on first and you should tile to
it.

For adhesive, Gripfill should be suitable.


I'm concious that this is going to have a significant effect on the
overall finish/appearance so want to get it right.

Also am I best with butt joints in the inner corners or should I
mitre?

They should be mitred.



Thanks
