Space Saving Kitchen Design Trends

March 3, 2018

Space-saving kitchen design does not mean compromising on style or functionality. Various trendy kitchen design ideas, from innovative storage options to chic small-scale appliances, can help you maximize the space in your home. Following the advice of Kitchen Professionals, some of the most recent trends in kitchen design include:

  1. Small, mighty appliances – You can place revamped vintage appliances such as stoves and vintage-look refrigerators that are available in smaller sizes. These devices provide the required functionality without sacrificing on style. It would be best if you looked for vintage appliances that can fit in your kitchen space.
  2. Single-bowl sink – Opting for a single-bowled sink over a double-bowl counterpart can save you a lot of counter space. You can find small-scale single-bowled sinks in all varieties and styles.
  3. Under-mount sink – If you want to save every inch of your kitchen space, opt for a small, under-mount, single-bowl sink. This way, you can keep more counter workspace beside the sink since its edges will be well concealed.
Pergola on Budget

How to Pimp Out Your Pergola on a Budget

June 8, 2017

A pergola can create a wonderful outdoor haven that you can use for relaxation, entertaining or alfresco family meals. However, if it is not comfortable and attractive you won’t want to be there for long and neither will the family.  A patio or pergola can easily start to look worn and tatty over the winter months when it is not in use so much, so here are a few tips on how to pimp out your pergola and make it the attractive feature it was meant to be.

  • Comfortable seating is a must. If your pergola is lacking seats, add an outdoor sofa or easy chairs and a table. These can often be picked up online for a song, or you could visit the local op-shop. If you have seating you like, consider giving it a coat of paint to brighten it up.
  • Bright cushions will add a pop of colour, but make sure they are outdoor cushions, otherwise you’ll be carting them inside and back out all the time and that can be annoying, especially if you are carrying your morning coffee.

How New Fencing can help Your House Sell More Quickly

March 18, 2017

If your house is for sale, you may feel frustrated if it has not elicited much buyer attention. To help a house sell quickly, new fencing may be needed. Fencing contractors can soon construct a new fence for your home, and you may find it sells more quickly.  Street appeal is an essential part of getting buyers to look at your home, and having a brand-new fence will undoubtedly enhance the look of your home from the front.

When someone purchases a home, they don’t usually want the added expense of doing repairs – unless they are buying a flipper, a home they intend to resell quickly after doing it. So, having your home in excellent condition inside and out will help it to sell soon. It could be pristine inside, but if the outside looks neglected or the fence is falling, buyers will be put off going inside it, so they’ll never see that new paint job or the professional carpet cleaning job you did yesterday.

4 Reasons to Consider a Shade Sail for Your Home

February 23, 2017

Shade is an important factor to enhance your life and make you feel more comfortable in the hot weather.  These days, shade sails from someone like Shade Sails Perth are often used to create the best kind of shade and there are many good reasons for choosing them over natural greenery such as trees. The most obvious one is that trees take a long time to grow, while a sail can be installed in a few days.

A sail can be placed close to the home, while having a tree in the same place could put your home in danger of falling branches, bushfires and problems with the electric wiring, not to mention roots from the tree tangling with your house foundations and plumbing.

Why would you want shade so very close to the home?

The Most Common Reason to Use a Transport Company

July 28, 2014

The most common reason people use a transport company is for when they are moving, especially if they are going a long distance. Freight consists of any number of product types and that includes the furniture in your home. The size truck you use will depend on how many bedrooms there are in the house and what other goods you may have that take up a lot of room. For instance, you may have a grand piano.

No matter whether you have a lot or a little, your possessions are always precious and you don’t want to see them damaged. Neither do you want to pay a fortune to send your goods across the state or the country. It’s important to choosing a professional removalist company, such as Brilliance Removalists Brisbane, carefully so that your moving experience is a good one.
