Out with the Old and in with the New

It's been a busy few days, the bathrooms and kitchen have been "gutted" with all the fixtures and tiles being removed.

Kitchen is underway and is being installed next week and Tiles have started to be layed.

 

Living area tiles - I have chosen 600 x 600 Lappato from Amber Tiles in off-white

Combinded Laundry and Bathroom "before and after" Demolition

 

 

 

We have discovered asbestos lagging to the copper pipework in the walls which has caused a few days delay.  But we've hired the professionals to remove it and the works will be able to recommence.

 





Renovators beware of asbestos in older buildings such as this one which is circa 1979/1980.  Do not remove asbestos yourself, hire a contractor who is licenced for asbestos removal.

 

Stay tuned for more renovation pics!
