- How hard are they to keep clean?
- Are they more expensive/less expensive/same as glass.
- For windows, what do you look out on (back yard/ garden / plants??)
thanks

If you want good,fresh oats,you'll pay a fair price. However,if you can be satisfied with the oats that have already been through the horse, that comes a little cheaper. Re: Window or Mirror Splashback ... Love them or hate them? 11Mar 05, 2019 12:42 pm We have a mirror splashback in our country house, it was the only choice as it reflects a spectacular view. I love to sit on the end of the island and can see the view in all directions. It's not that hard to keep clean, as opposed to a window which is getting dirty from the outside as well. There's some splashes from my husbands messy cooking sessions, when you would have to clean any type of splashback, but otherwise just a bit of film that wipes away easily.

We chose a colour that matched the walls and top cupboard colours as we wanted to reflect the light from the opposite window. The white glass doesn't tend to show all the oil splashes and looks great. Re: Window or Mirror Splashback ...

The white glass doesn't tend to show all the oil splashes and looks great. I am undecided on the kitchen splash back, whether to go for tiles (nothing I’ve seen particularly grabs me) or to go for a white glass splash back. Can you give an idea of what the cost difference would be to upgrade to a glass splashback? Re: Window or Mirror Splashback ...

Can you give an idea of what the cost difference would be to upgrade to a glass splashback? We had a kitchen upgrade that cost us $5000 which included the glass splashback and lots of other things. I am not sure how much it cost by itself, but it is the starfire (clear opti) glass with painted backing. Re: Window or Mirror Splashback ... Love them or hate them? 15Mar 12, 2019 8:55 pm We were told cheaper to have window than bricks + tiles or glass splashback Due to cost of brick laying + insulation between brick and gyprock + carpentry + cost of tiling and tiles. And I do love ...love my kitchen window.

As for cyclone fence FREE collected after neighbour decided to replace front fence. Plus S hooks to hooked on to the cyclone fence and cable ties to hold pots firmly. I already have collection of Bromeliads (with pups) so I have just divided up into many little pots. You can get a large pot of Philodendron 'Xanadu' again you can divided up into individual plants. Just before xmas I manage to get tube stock of Crotons for $4 from Bunning,. You don't have to place plants all at once you can fill wall stacker pot with plants gradually. I will say appoximately $500 to $600 Oh! I got carry away, do you mean the cost of window? around $600 ( note 2014 price ) Build Thread : https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?=31&t=81624 Landscape Thread : viewtopic.php?f=19&t=86133 Re: Window or Mirror Splashback ...
