Yea, It wasn't to good here for a wile as you found out There was two ute loads of junk in that small room when I finally cleared the clutter
I wonder if "Boyle's law" will apply when its all in action again

Holy Toledo Tony .... That's a bucket load of bearers & joists you've got there ....



For the final finish .... Would you like samples of porcelain tiles with glass splashbacks







That Front Loader .... Try using the "Quick wash" setting on cold water ... Use 1/2 the washing powder recommended

You might notice that the difference between the Longest cycle & the shortest cycle is ... longer extended rinsing time

For greasy clothes ... Add 3/4 of the soap recommended with a water softening agent ... Still on the cold / Quick wash setting

You can load em up max, with shirts / jocks & socks .... But ...
Don't load em up "maximum full" with the heavy articles such as jeans & towels

The machine should have it rapped up in 35 minutes

That's a nice laundry in the pic Cant see the second pic



My wife likes the front loader so it's just me I just cant come to terms with it shaking the house so much my computer screens even wobble and the office is four rooms away

Hopefully it will improve with all that timber under the new floor. We are going to top it, put trays in the drains, add a waterproof membrane and then fix out. All the old cabinets are going back in with a new kick in place.

Should last for years I hope.

Actually ... Both of those Laundries in the pics are useless / unworkable ... The second one is only a "sample cut style" pic

They are not my design /// pics are nipped off the net /// they just look "pretty" ... I only put them up as most laundry areas are neglected in design and practicability /// hoping to inspire you for a selection of fashionable materials & layout

I've had so much go wrong here recently I just laughed when I discovered this one tonight No wonder the house has been taken over by the mice

Our now not so faithful Simpson sud saver hasn't been saving all its suds it may appear.


The washing machine went up in sparks yesterday

Not sure what I'm going to do with this mess as tradies are impossible to get here and I don't have time to do a whole make over my by self. I'm thinking of cutting it out at around 600 off the wall and sticking a joist in and patching it up for now. Put some spare odd tiles on. Shouldn't look to bad as will be covered by the white goods.

leave it until the end of your lease and let the landlord/agent worry about it!

Funny you say that..... I find most ideas out of mags etc are impractical in real life
I'll dig up some pics of the new much larger laundry that's now happening in the homestead I'm trying to renovate for coments

Wile trying to do a major renovation on a larger house this one is just annoying

Yep ... those mags give really good ideas /// Folks slap them down on my desk and say "I want that" .... Trouble is the space requires a home of 500sqm and they only have a budget for 350

But hey .... Luv a challenge
