• I've got one bathroom in rust tile and another bathroom in dark peach tile.
• Want the grout colour to match as close as possible to the tile colour.
• We did some test batches with Mapei Ultracolour Plus Terracotta (143) and Mapei Ultracolour Plus Terra Di Siena (145), but these aren't close enough
• Any advice about what grout colours to trial next?

Thanks!

What corner pantry handles?
I’m leaning to option A to preserve the full panel look of the pantry doors

A) Minimalist stainless steel edge pull handles
B) Vertical wooden handles: full length or just partial length
C) Horizontal handles at same height a the top draw handles
D) just a simple wooden knob
E) something else

Removing primer from this passage way so I can clear coat it like the rest of the wood work in my house (see last pic)

Some of the primer has gotten pretty deep into the grain, any advice on prepping it for the clear coat? …Just keep sanding? Thanks!

1. Bottom of bench top will be 890mm above floor level: what height bench stools should I get to be practical/comfortable to sit on
2. I was thinking 3 bench seats on long edge (2300mm) and one on short edge (1050mm). How does that sound?

Further measurements in image #2 and #3

Thanks heaps!

Builder / painter decided to paint over this timber trim because it had some patch work, but I was happy with it / preferred it with the timber finish.

By the time I will be able to do anything to it it will have been 24 hrs with this primer applied. Is this reversable? What would be involved?

Thankyou so much!

Not wanting to spend a bomb, but want something good enough quality.
Based in inner north Melbourne

Mum's fridge stopped refrigerating yesterday. It's a Westinghouse 585L side by side (WSE6870SA), about 6 years old. Display is showing a CL error code. Before it died, the side of the door near the handles was extremely hot to the touch.

Anyone know what the CL error means on these or what's likely gone? Trying to work out if it's worth getting a repairer out or if we should just cut our losses and replace it. Based in Melbourne, australia if that matters.

Was thinking of putting a very strong magnet behind this splashback so I can stick knives directly onto it, like a hidden knife strip. Has anyone done this, or have thoughts on what kind of magnet would work best? Thanks!

*edit stainless

Was $1500 installed after rebates. DYNAMIC/X8.

Working out concrete benchtop finish for my island bench (my kitchen in pictures 1-2). My kitchen will be
- wood cabinets as pictured
- stainless benches along the walls
- concrete island top

My concrete bench form will be the top only (no sides) and quick thin

I’m thinking I think I’m a fan of the third picture, exposed aggregate + semi gloss/matt. Thoughts?

I ride my bike past this house on my way into work, was surprised to see the price under a million.

Just bought 3x Flowerpot VP1s from an online retailer, they were advertised as &TRADITION. They were shipped from Hong Kong to me in Australia.

They look genuine to me, just thought I'd double check with what others think! Thanks

Any thoughts? (wall plaster will be finished before paint)

• Antique White USA (walls)
• Antique White USA semi gloss (wood work + skirting)
• Ceiling white (ceilings)

Mainly tossing up between Antique White USA vs Natural white. I reckon I prefer the warmth of Antique White USA
