Feedback: Splashback: We got glass and never looked back, love it. It is effortless to keep clean. Should have gone glass in laundry as well. Colour - match with other glass in the kitchen. Benchtop: If dark - go granite. Dark Caesar will scratch and it shows, we had a demo at Adelaide Marble - unbelievable - but choose carefully as natural materials vary. Light - go man made (Caesar) - can't see scratches and is non-porous i.e. super hygienic. We have Adelaide Black granite and love it. It seems non-porous as lemon etc does not etch. Dark gives a lot of accent and looks good. Tiles: Go non-slip gloss, they are super easy to clean. Light color is OK. We have non-shiny non-slip sandy colour but it takes ages to get clean due to the tile texture. The dirt seem to "embed" itself into the tiles.

Farm House, will… 0 24915 No. It's not original. Circa early to mid 90s would be my guess and maybe even as late as early 2000s 1 6626 2 4669 |
