Hi Fu, Just a quick question, do you recommend chucking on this fertiliser now, or waiting until spring? My palmetto has gone very yellow and I want to…

I like it mounted on the wall, it gives the illusion of a bigger (and more grand) window.

I used ABC blinds, they were much cheaper than Vista and the quality is great.

thanks Fu, I went and bought a big tub of the stuff you mentioned (in the red container) on Friday night, so I must have been channeling your advice before…

Thanks Fu, but I dont think they are the coastal brown ants. They are much darker in colour and have larger tails than heads. The heads are a…

thanks for that Fu, but do you have a sure fire fix for ants also?

sorry to dig up an old thread, however I need help....fast!
My garden has been over run by ants and scale and I have so far lost three of my beloved…

I would not be going with any of the bigger known fibreglass pool companies, which are nearly almost owned by the same company, they just have different trading names.
We had…

OK, my home is no where near as prestigious as yours, but this will give you an idea of my colour scheme nonetheless.

my windows are made from aluminium, I can post a picture of the front if you'd like...

My home, though only built last year is red brick, with a feature portico painted a cream colour, as is the garage door. My window frames are black and…

Prunus Blireana do not bear any fruit, they are ornamental only.
They give excellent shade when fully covered in leaf. Mine are certainly covering the windows, they are extremely bushy…

I would be planting a tree in the front yard to shade the front of your home if they are bedrooms. If you get afternoon sun, this will heat…

Also, I don't find the edges too sharp at all. My children have not cut themselves or complained about sharp edges, and we have been in our home for…

Yes, for both bathrooms.

I too built with SPH, we had mitred edges in the bathrooms and were charged $250 by the tiler, who offered the service at the 'tiler meeting' you have onsite…

Bugger, can you fit both into the budget?

You could use this product guide:

It has quite a lot of data specifically related to light, insulation and solar control.
Hope this helps with your…

Not that this helps you much, but here in WA you cannot have any doors opening onto the pool area at all, and windows that open onto the area must…

Yes, please post your creations! I would love to see them.

I'm thinking of replacing my venetians as well. They are such a pain to clean, they drive me crazy!
My hubby won't be happy though, as they are only…

I'm not sure if this is just a state regulation or not but here in WA, we were told that the pavers must slope away from the pool to meet…

It is the shrub sprayers that he uses. We have put in a bore, so the water does not cost us any money (for now). I will let…

ohh, forgot to add that my hubby who was adding risers to the sprinklers (yep, the plants have outgrown the reticulation!!), said that the amount of worms in the soil…

You could do a similar thing but with a type of wall. Have two walls with an opening in the middle with a pathway, then place another wall (using…

Thanks Fu, your approval means a lot!
The plums are about 600 - 700mm away from the house, it does look a lot closer in the photos though. …

We actually built them ourselves. We bought the blocks from a place in Bibra Lake:

It is pretty hard yakka though! Our backs…

These photos are after a Fu Manchu inspired makeover! Our garden and lawn were looking very tired after a not so kind winter (and it was only first planted…
