I've recently redone a bathroom with only minimal tiling (floors, shower, around the bath and sink). The walls are painted with a kitchen/bathroom mould resistant paint. Like you, I prefer…

Oh my! I can see why you'd be disappointed with that. Poor thing! I hope Caesarstone sorts it out for you.

I've got a new white on white kitchen with satin finish cupboards/drawers. My 6 and 4 year old kids are responsible for some of the marks but I probably make…

I've had a similar experience with Caesarstone Ice Snow - I expected it to look grey/white but the kitchen bench and splashback often look more of a yellow creamy colour.…

I asked for Taubmans Crisp White and the painter had it colour matched by Dulux. The Dulux formula for colour matching this colour is wrong! Don't ask for this colour…

Which white paint - such a tricky question! I'm going to paint a bunch of canvases with different whites, see how the light plays over them during the day. That's…

I've heard from a plumber that it's worth paying a bit more for Caroma because the parts are easily available for years after.
I've had two quotes on the Caroma…

I'm in the same situation and plan to get a 1400 Mizu Japanese soaker bath from Reece: http://www.reece.com.au/bathrooms/products/9502385
Though shorter than other baths, they're deeper than average so your knees…

Thanks so much, everyone. Really helped. Definitely changing to two doors now.

Hello, I'm after some advice and opinions about pantry doors.
My pantry will be 90cm wide and the joiner has suggested having four doors - two lower ones that end…

Cutting Edge Kitchens or anyone else who can help, could I please ask your opinion on the pot drawers for my kitchen?
The external space either side of the oven…

I bought two Futura rail showers from that ebay seller. Message him for a price if you're buying more than one - I got two with free postage to Melbourne,…

Has anyone got a home loan with UBank? Their product looks so good - low rate, no fees - I'm just wondering if there's something I'm missing...
Sadly they're only…

I've had two front loaders and wouldn't go back to top loader now because of the extra bench space and the water efficiency.
Check out the cycle lengths of different machines…

A joiner told me there's poor quality vinyl wrap that peels easily but there's also better quality, thicker stuff that costs a little more but doesn't peel away from the…

Just came across a kitchen company's website with a good gallery of kitchen images. It details the materials and colours used for most of them so I thought it was…

What a lovely room! Your kitchen looks great, but I think the main focus of an open plan room should be the living areas and a kitchen should kind of…

Wow, Squirty Chook Girl, what a lovely kitchen! Bet it looks lovely in a 1930s house. Love all your glassware in the cupboards.
For lighting ideas you might enjoy this…

I bought things on ebay from Brisbane Discount Lights, Taps and Accessories. It's a real shop, though, and they have more than what's on ebay (that's what the guy told…

My Scandinavian Retreat
This is a wonderful blog full of great images for anyone fond of Scandinavian style. So good I had to share...

Bosch was recommended to me by a kitchen joiner, an architect and two builders. All separately, all without me asking for a recommendation so that's what I went with (all…

Our shower's internal space is 71x71cm. I find it a bit poky when I'm washing my hair or shaving my legs but it's not impossible, and although it seems tiny…

50 degrees is the temperature recommended if you have kids, so they can't accidentally scald themselves.

I lived in a rental with them a few years ago - they were harder to clean than tiles, you really had to scrub more because of the uneven surface…

If you're a sucker for looking at photos of kitchens you may enjoy this... You can vote yes or no for each photo.

Hi Malben, I agree with you about getting a plain rather than flecked bench. Trust yourself (easy to say, huh?). If you don't like flecky but get it you'll always…

Pattycake, I saw this and thought of you!

I know the standard size for showers is 900x900 but you could cut it down to 820x900 to give you a bit of extra room to open the shower door.…

I just had a very quick look on one of my favourite sites, http://www.houzz.com and saw a few. Filter by Bathroom and then by Traditional or Eclectic and there were…

I know exactly what you're going through! It's hard when no one you know has been through it and can recommend someone. Even our architect was unable to suggest anyone,…
