Hi Suzanne Sorry, I meant to say why do you think the pricing is ridiculous? If you like, you can post or send me the details of the work scope (without the names), some pics of the area and the price and I can give you feedback if it is fair or not... Or you can send it to us via our website. Cheers

just look up a window manufacture anyone of them will be able to make that and install it and you need a plasterer doesn't anyone use yellow pages anymore ,i know that houzz has suggestions but no one has come forward

First question -- are the tiles the same all the way through ? The kitchen ones look beige , the lounge look white ? IMO white tiles would LOOK better in the kitchen -- I highlighted 'look' because if you are worried about dirty marks or the like , then white mightn't be the best , BUT if that was your motivation for going beige , I think going charcoal would have been better ? Anyway , theres a slight problem with mismatched handles , although I don't think thats too bad given the 2 colours used , and the metre or more height between them . ASpart from that , I quite like the kitchen -- but boy is it boring haha ! Monotone done well is okay , but this is monotone-us to play on words . the different between a grey blind and a beige one means diddly-squat -- arguably the grey suits the overall scheme better , but how about say mustard or burgundy or ( I can imagine the shudder from you ) bright red ! Then some appliances in whatever tone you pick , teatowels , cushions , a rug , even artwork with some aspects in the mustard or burgundy or your choice , which might be green or blue or similar . Then carry on , with a larger clock , 2 or 3 potplants with the pots in your chosen tone , or some or all the pots in gloss white if you have already do the art and cushions and a rug -- the green leaves with add some colour and variety but also some life !

I asked cabinet maker for non gloss cabinets with no handles. He’s given me these which I plan to live with. The blinds are grey. I’m thinking about painting the bottom cabinets grey or beige (gloss). I let my partner pick the blinds colour so we have grey (when I think beige would have looker better in hind sight).
