Hi, I'm looking to hear some experiences of people who have raised an old home and built under. I've looked at some builder's websites but I'd love to hear actual…

Thanks for your reply.
We thought about that, the ceiling is high enough but it's not properly lined and doesn't have a decent floor. It's also way to small as is…

I should also add that I found this floorplan from when it last sold 6 yrs ago. The back section of the house (kitchen/dining) is now different and the sunroom…

Fell in love with a house to buy but we need 4 bedrooms. Been looking at the floor plan for ages but can't see how it can be done without…

Yep JazzyJess I mean coming away from the tiles. Comes away more every time I clean it. Maybe I could scrape the silicon out and redo it lower so it…

Is it possible to move the position of a bath after it’s installed in a hob? The builder put it hard up against the wall and siliconed it to the…

Just wondering if anyone's used the Feast Watson wet look deck finish?
It's a fairly new product I think. Got a sample and I think I like it but wondering…

That sounds like a great product.. My only concern is the 'stripping' product, bit nervous I might accidentally splash it on my timber doors...

Thanks for the replies they're really helpful.
I'm quite anxious to get it finished sooner rather than later so all the advice is really appreciated!
Can you get the flood system…

Are you hosing it everyday?

And what oil did you use?

Thanks Robbie, so you didn't get any staining or water marks after rain?

If a merbau deck is hosed down every day, how soon can it be oiled? (Thinking Aquadeck?)
Does it have to stop bleeding completely?
Deck is under cover.
Thanks in advance …

So I'm VERY new to vege gardening and a few weeks ago my cucumber plant looked great. It's now slowly dying but I'm hoping I can still save it as…

Sorry it took so long but here's some pics of my kitchen. We didn't pick the 20mm because it's cheaper, we actually prefer the slim look of it, looks classy…

We have 20mm waterfall ends I'll take a pic later, I think it looks great

Thanks Rusty Cheese, that's great info. I've been sold unsuitable paint in the past so it's great to have an idea before I go in, cheers

We are on clay, I read soakwells are no good on clay? What about a length of ag pipe run down the back to let it drain out slowly? Or…

Hi all, we've just had a guy install a timber retaining wall out the front of our house, he's put in drainage pipes in the wall and also a pit…

Just thought I'd let you know we ended up getting a 7kw Panasonic, got it for a great price from Harvey Norman. It's getting installed next week, thanks for all…

We're currently getting a timber retaining wall built and we'd like to paint it woodland grey to match our gutters and facia.
What's the best paint to use for the…

Not in my experience.

So I've just read some terrible reviews about Kelvinator which is a shame as they've got a 7kw for $1299. Everything else seems to be over $1700. Didn't want to…

Thanks, that's what I wasn't sure of. Looks like I'll need at least 7kw.
How do I find out how far it'll blow the air?
How much is installation usually?
I'm…

Thanks grumblebum, yeah I know it won't cool the whole house, I'm not too fussed about the other end as out house doesn't really get too hot anyway. I'm just…

Thanks, that's good to hear.
Still a little confused about what size to get. We have a 300m2 house but its not completely open plan so I'm not sure.
Thinking about…

Thanks for the advice guys!
Re the positioning of the outside unit, south is not possible (or at least it's a big distance away), north is the only option as that's…

Hi all, looking at purchasing a split system air conditioner in the next few weeks but not sure what to look for.
Will probably just go to Harvey Norman or somewhere…
