Just joined the forum. We've been renovating for 7 months now and moving onto the landscape project, looking forward to chatting and advice etc etc.

Al - we've done loads, but nothing quite complete, so no glamour photos, will see what I can pull out along the way. In seven months we've - knocked out a wall to open plan the kitchen/living area - polished the floorboards - put new carpet in all bedrooms - put an island bench into the kitchen - built a walk in pantry - fitted out the laundry - pulled out all the existing garden (read jungle) - built merbau side gates and bin area - fitted wardrobe to main bedroom - fitted out office, painted and completed (yay one room finished!) - fitted cavity slider to guest room (it was narrow) painted and completed (another room finished!) - New blinds throughout - DH currently working on storm water and drainage around pool Still to do: - Gutters - Water Tank - New Windows - New Front Door - Landscaping around Pool - Cubby House - Render front of house - Excavate front, complete with new driveway and retaining wall and lanscaping - French doors off kitchen to replace existing corner window - Tiling of Laundry - New Bathroom and Ensuite - Retiling and railing on front porch - Painting of rest of interior - dh has a paint phobia! phewwwww - we also have two kids under 3. This project is certainly bigger and harder than we imagined! But we love it! |
