Hi Everyone, My kitchen is nearly done (can't wait to post photos in the show me your kitchen thread ), but I am abit unsure about the location of the handles, the cabinet maker has put the handles on the cupboard door below the sink vertically whereas all the other handles ( which are on the draws ...

Thanks everyone, looks like we are going to have to choose a different shower arm so that we can hopefully get the height that we want. I did ask him on at least 2 occasions about the height of the shower( before the tiles were put in) and he assured me that is was the right height. Of course once t...

Hi, Just wondering if there is a recommended height for a shower head? We have just had one installed and it looks abit low, but the builder is telling me that it is at the standard height, so was wondering if someone could tell me what that is. Thanks Tweety

Hi Matt, Thanks for your reply, looking washed out is what i was worried about. the projector is a Mitsubishi HC7900, the brochure that I have doesn't specify the type of screen it just says 2.7m. As for the price, it is for a complete home theatre system, fully installed, the components are : Mitsu...

Hi, I am hoping someone could help me, we have been exploring the option of getting a projector with a screen for our family room. Of course the salesman is saying it would be fine in a family room and that you can still see the screen in daylight. But my understanding is that projectors are best su...

Hi, I was hoping someone could answer a contract question for me. We are currently in the middle of a renovation and have decided, (to save costs) not to go ahead with some items that have been listed in the contract. I have asked the builder what sum he has allocated for these items so that we can ...

Hi, I am looking at purchasing these from Masters, http://www.masters.com.au/product/900029279/mixx-rubic-square-basin-sink-mixer, and was wondering if anyone has had any experience with these good or bad, I can't seem to find any reviews on them. The price is reasonable but I'm just not sure about ...

Thanks to you both, it sounds like our quote is reasonable ... The mosquitos also love me so I would hate to have the doors and not be able to open them!so I guess we will have to add it to the list and maybe cut back on something else...the retractable doors that we were quoted on are also centor d...

Just wondering if someone can help, we would like to get a retractable flyscreen for our timber bifold door and would prefer to get one that is hidden in the wall, which needs to be installed when the door is installed. Does anyone know approximately how much they cost? The door has 6 panels, in tot...

Thanks everyone for your advise, after reading everyones comments, I will probably go for double bowls with no side drainer, and topmount/inset. The one that I have found, that is within budget, is 405x355x205mm deep, my concern is that the 355mm width is not enough? http://www.oliverisinks.com/down...

Hi, I am looking at purchasing kitchen sink with two bowls, but there are so many different sizes out there that I am not sure what is a good size. I have been told the bigger bowl the better but it unfortunately it seems to mean that bigger = more expensive. What is the minimum bowl size that every...

Hi, I live in Melbourne and we are currently renovating our home, we have decided to get quotes on upgrading to double glazed windows/bifolds in the new part of the house, the existing house will not change.

Hi everyone, I am hoping that someone could answer a question for me, We are about to renovate our home and have had to make an amendment to the plans, so we have not been able to get our building permit.

Hi, i have also purchased 2 60cm miele ovens, originally i was planning on having them both in a tower, but when i went to a friends house that has this configuration, and i tried to remove a hot lasagne out of the oven, i found that i could not reach (in saying that I am only 155cm tall). So I have...

Thanks everyone for your replies, I think I will put the extra $1000 towards something else and just get the non pyro.

Hi, I am looking at purchasing the Miele oven H 5241 B CLST , it is currently $2499. But there is also a pyrolytic version of this oven the H 5241 BP at $3499. The only difference that i can see betweeen the two is that one is pyrolytic and one isn't. I have one salesperson that says the perfectclea...
