Hi Vincent. When you say handle less do you mean push to open or recessed finger pulls/ sharknose.
Push to open is a cheap option as it's simply new doors and…

Silk is a semi gloss.
If you see a kitchen in "silk"-Laminex or "sheen"-Polytec in isolation it looks quite glossy but when seen side by side with a true high gloss…

You'll notice CEK actually calls it a laminated panel, not a waterfall.
The OP called it a waterfall when technically what they meant was a laminated or melamine end panel.

300mm is the maximum unsupported length for CS overhangs.
Your bench is 80mm thick so it's quite possible that the reinforcement is built into the benchtops. That is the standard way…

I've never had a complaint from a customer that has gone for undermount sinks. Realistically your probably just as likely to get a chip in front of your dishwasher…

Hi Kat.
Accidental damage (chips) won't be covered under warranty, so any chips around an undermount sink will be your responsibility.
Having said that, personally I feel that undermount sinks look better…

Induction.
Quick, controlled, easy to clean and the flat surface can be used as a bench when not in use.

The design looks sound. The pantry is a little small but that depends on your situation. You'll still fit heaps in it as they have maximized it.
The 300mm overhang is…

Carcass is generally HMR melamine particle board.
The doors and panels are made from MR MDF board that has a very smooth melamine surface. This gives a high quality finish to…

Use Oxalic acid. You can buy it as deck cleaner in the paint section of Bunnings or use this product: Diggers 2kg Rust & Stain Cleaner
It's Oxalic acid as well.
It…

That's the way all stone is done.

Hi Sarah
Actually, looking at it again I'd just run the overheads from the pantry to the back wall. No L shape.
I'd make them as deep as the microwave box…

Hi Sarah
If I was designing your kitchen I would have continued the overheads in an L shape around the wall with the pantry, butting up to the pantry and put…

Seriously though, for lintels, I always allow 100mm bearing for anything under 1.0m and 150mm for anything over 1.0m.

I always find the size of lentils depends on the type.
Red lentils always seem to be larger than puy lentils while brown lentils can be quite variable.

Laminex and Formica are the same company, Snow drift and polar white is the cool white colour from each.
They are basically the same colour and actually use the same…

I'd just see if they can leave the benchtop off completely. If they wont, have a very basic 32mm laminate top installed and then remove that after handover and replaced…

Did you notice that every picture you have shown the ceiling is square set so there is no cornice. In that situation it is fine to run to the ceiling…

Main problem will be where the tiles meet the cornice.
In normal floor to ceiling tiling you leave the cornice off until the tiles are done and then install the cornice.…

There is always a gap where the cabinets meet the wall. It gets filled with a scribing fillet. 30mm is pretty standard.

Hi Beetaloo
Drawer technology has come a long way in the last 10 years and is far more accessible to the average person today.
With high quality drawers easily capable of 65kg…

Only problem with the floor mounted like shown in the picture is you cant get it in soft close. If you want soft close you will need to go with…

I'd say that your splasback is non-compliant.
There are rules in Australia about how much space there needs to be around cooktops - these are listed in the Australian Standard AG/601-AS5601.…

Hi Molly
I've installed many Metaline splashbacks and think it's a good product.
It used to be quite expensive (almost the same as glass) but I think that Laminex have realised that…

Hi Daredevil. Are the walls masonry or timber framed?

Here is a couple of pic's of a recent job I finished that used stone for the splashback.
It looked very smart and was a change from the normal glass splashback.…

Stewie is spot on. That is the optimal height.
I always laugh at these TV's that are above fireplaces or above taller cabinetry.
Best to wall mount above lowline cabinetry.

I think that sometime in the last 3 years Elle has probably finished her kitchen.
This is quite a thread revival.

What you want is this:

The door will typically have a 25mm gap between the bottom of door and the timber threshold then the seal…

We dont install oven isolation switches in WA.
They are on there own circuit and get switched of frome the switchboard.
