I could totally deal with $2000/sqm... my friends are reconfiguring a kitchen and bathroom (not luxury or large, just midrange) and adding about 20-30sqm single-storey brick veneer on the back…

We have two bathrooms in this house (which are going to get ripped out when we do the renovation), one has a normal bath and one has a little hip…

They're not especially cheap, but we used Kennards' boxes in our moves and they were great. You can buy used ones from them usually, but we got new - and…

Also not a fan of the stripey cupboards. They look really odd compared with the non-kitchen end of the room too.

If I'd had more time, I would have investigated where to lodge a formal complaint about the advertising on two of the properties I visited when we were buying, due…

We had HB 1/2 and 1/4 in our old unit (1/4 above the picture rails, 1/2 beneath, with off-white trims and old polished timber floors) and it looked great -…

Inner west Sydney here (near Lewisham)... where it seems builders are starting to see the same $$-signs that seeking solutions referred to earlier in regards to Bondi

I do a bit of silversmithing as a hobby, so I have quite a few metalforming tools and mallets and torches etc so that I can cut and form and…

I like the glass stair rail... but maybe not until my child(ren) are older... I could see my little guy going straight through that in a few years' time, toughened…

I think I'll take buzz's suggestion and just show him a bunch of really ugly, expensive lights to contrast with
I have this simple…

Absolutely gorgeous lights... but ouch on the pocket
I'm hoping to get my own made... something unique to put my own stamp on the place, but…

Structural would imply that it's there to support the structure of the building. They don't have to be steel, like some others have said. My in-laws' house has whole 10"…

I think it's a great idea - I'm definitely having a micro laundry put in with our renovation, but probably in the main bathroom rather than the kitchen (there is…

Fair enough. I come from a family where really low blood pressure was fairly common, we probably had someone pass out once every couple of months, so the outward-opening door…

Looks great!
One thing that niggled at me... your loo doors open inward... it's generally recommended that they open outward, just so that if someone passes out in there, you can…

ooh, lots of lovely things in here!
I have about a million ideas for things I want to put in the house when the renovations…

I can't help with your question, but I think I'm in love... I never understood how people could spend several thousand dollars on an oven/stove, and now I do. Those…

I just measured mine, they're 26.5cm deep inside... I do have large binders in one of them and they sit inside ok, but I can't have a door on that…

When we sold our apartment, I found out a bit about the photography process this agency uses. They take the shot, and they do nothing to the parts of the…

1) Not sure about Qld, but here in NSW it was pretty much just conveyancing and agent's fees for us when we sold our apt. earlier this year.
Our agent…

Thanks for the greetings!
The main things that make this house difficult are the staircase locations. Fixing the internal layout is our highest priority -…

I was researching how much certain things cost to have done and lots of the results led here

Hi all!
I've been lurking in the forum for a couple of weeks and there sure is a lot of great information here
We're in inner-western Sydney…

I've had these in various sizes/colours over the years and they've all held up well (I just wish they still made the 60cm wide sizes!). Keep in mind that they…
