Architraves ( ? ) round window reveals
Do they still fit these in new builds and whats the point of them
anyway .Is it for protection of some sort .......? When I did up my kitchen I just removed the old ones and painted the new plasterboard .......I'm about to do the same in the bathroom ,especially as one side is much narrower than the other on account of a mains water inlet pipe being at the other side .

It's "reveal" (noun) not "reveal" (verb) They make wall papering easier but I have only really seen them round wooden lined reveals on older houses. -- Bob Mannix (anti-spam is as easy as 1-2-3 - not) |

What's he talking about? perhaps you ought to rephrase that to "I don't understand, what is a window reveal" -- Stop The Badger Cull - Respond by the 10th March http://www.stopthecull.info/emaildefra.php |
