Homes On Show - Save My Bathroom

Posted 30/05/18

Behind every job there is a story. This one starts with a homeowner, and a vision to renovate her bathroom from an outdated 1970’s relic to a modern, clean, and functional bathroom. The Dilemma The story starts with Joanne and her first tradie, a referral from a friend. The tradie seemed great. The homeowner and the tradie agreed that Joanne would buy everything that was needed for the bathroom, and the tradie gave her a cost to install and renovate to her plan. Fast forward three months and the tradie was nowhere to be seen and uncontactable.

Wall mount desk

Posted 9 months ago

I have a fold out desk weighing 20kg that I’ve mounted (like a pedestrian) into drywall. I’m not confident in how sturdy it is so would like someone who knows what they’re doing to do it properly.
