2 toilets here, one connected to mains, one connected to tanks, both the same brand & model, neither require you to hold the flush button down.
Sounds more like factory settings…

yeah, a couple of months work *if* we get our act together

thanks, tiles are the obvious option, but gee, they are cold in winter.
Each board, bought 2nd hand, was well and truly sanded flat, then all the edges were coated with…

all bedrooms, bathroom, laundry & toilet are complete, lounge/dining need some architrave work though, the kitchen, a workshop, 4m x 13m back verandah and & new room on the front…

ah well, at least you know how long some thing is going to take to get done

hehehehe, the GLW did have to wait almost 15 years
Congrats on a fantastic job.
thanks heaps.

the GLW was adamant that the air coming from the drying cupboard not be returned to the laundry because of moisture (bear in mind the plaster was all primed with…

Thanks for that info, too
no worries.

If you do not have any damp clothes in this cupboard to dry can you shut off the hot air flow? (And if you can - do you remember to…

yeah, it does look a lot small in the pics, the benchtop is 600mm wide.

It started life as a standard 900mm wide pantry cupboard, bought from Bunnings.
When we had the new ducted system put in we had a vent added to the laundry, basically…

a couple of pics, basically before…

Don't quote me on this, but I seem to recall 1.2m from the shower head was the min if the switch was in the room, and if the shower head…

from go to whoa it took us 2 weeks (I took 3…

It's an ensuite, not a main bathroom, we were more than happy with the 900 x 900 in the ensuite at the last house, with the larger shower in the…

A straight edge is just that, a length of (whatever, usually metal) that is known to be dead straight.

If the tank is filled from the mains it is really not a rainwater tank
Thanks for the reply, no I'm not confused about the valve,…

more than happy with our 12 year old Fisher & Parkel, Nautilus dishwasher, tho we will probably upgrade to something newer when we redo the kitchen sometime soon.

cringe if you want, but Bunnings is where we bought a fair bit for our bathroom.

thanks, I took 3 weeks holidays, 1st week was spent getting all the gear then 2 weeks from starting to being able to shower in there again, only had…
