Same here. Change in SS was the downfall of our buiil

I am planning on building a deck over my alfresco. When I had the house built I asked for the slab to be one brick course lower, so I have…

I've built twice. First time was 18 years ago with a small builder who did everything himself. Second time with Rawsons.
The difference was the small builder as I was dealing…

Remainder means there will be painted walls above one row of tiles (skirting) except where it will be higher as indicted. So it will be higher A above the bath,…

That’s pretty short sighted as the paint is tinted to order and the paint shops generally have the ‘recipies’ for all paint brands and so longs as the correct base…

Yes I am sure, the walls of my house are a Dulux colour.
But you are right they do push Taubmans colours because that is who's paint the use, which makes…

Just for clarity, whilst Rawson's use Taubmans, you can in fact choose any colour from any paint maker. We have a Dulux colour in our place. And I am with…

90mm is much the norm these days.

That is of course an option but so is asking on sites like this if anyone knows of places where they can be brought. Main point of this board isn’t…

Yeah the reason we want sideways is because our wardrobe is custom built which means the distance between the blades is not a standard size hence the horizontal mount ones…

Firstly, I know this isn't a kitchen question, but am asking here as I know these kind of items come from the same suppliers are kitchen hardware.
What I am looking…

Yeah it probably will be on the smaller side but still reasonable depending how you want to use it. I have a Kempsey 28 and our family room shows as…

Even when the frame is up it can be hard to really tell. Somethings you need to wait until you try to furnish it to see.
Out of interest what…

They told me no to cooktop and oven as they were required for certificate of occupancy. I think that was BS, but in any case I told them the models…

It would have been done like that on purpose. It adds to the effect.
I reckon it looks pretty good!

I have a 14KW ducted Daikin and no great noise issues. Neighbours have an even bigger unit (18 or 20) and again no noise issues, especially as theirs blows up.

They shouldn't really need that much if there is a vent at the back for the hot air to escape to. Most fridge cavities I've ever seen with an overhead…

Not the brightest of pics, but you get the idea.
You can see the down lights running down the middle of the room. There is 3 in a row and a…

My place I don't have bollards, instead I have this wonderful looking thing.
I think it was installed by AGL when they did the meter, either way it didn't cost me…

The filament globes, both LED and halogen are for mood/show only. The light they give off is low and yellow. What you need are LED down lights to give the…

NBN installs that stuff (assuming you are in an NBN fibre area). NBN do have a preinstall program where you can ask the builder to ask NBN to install before…

The simplest solution to driveway sensors that light up when the neighbours come home or someone drives down the street is to adjust them properly! They need to be properly…

1. Depends on the lights you want. If they need to be hardwired then better to get Rawsons to do it. But if just connect to a baton fitting then…

Adding more insulation makes little difference to noise. Heating and cooling yes of course. Though do note of course adding more you have a diminishing rate of return. There gets…

My place included council fees (ACT Government) and the land was zoned by the government as BAL19 so included all items to meet that requirement such as the plugs that…

Their price was inclusive for sure. Our base price included the house and anything that was required to meet estate requirements. Eg high ceilings, a/c unit, driveway to estate standards…

Well there you are, you are expecting miracles on a very hot humid day! They are the days that a refrigerative unit would be ideal, but for the other 350…

Base inclusions are pretty good actually. As fo LUX in our case it ended up being cheaper for us to not take up LUX and then upgrade what we wanted…

I live in Canberra and have lived in Melbourne. Again as I stated one big issue is people do not understand how evap works and how to use it properly.…

Plenty of people also don’t understand how evap works and how to use them properly.
Me personally if I were in Melbourne and just wanted to add aircon (the assumption being…
