I have faux hardwood flooring that is really ceramic tile.. it is dark brown and so durable and easy to clean! I wish I had done the lighter version so the dust wouldn't show as much - then I wouldn't have to clean it as often. The photo you posted would be awesome. My need was to have something a wheelchair could go over after coming in from the outside. It works beautifully.

I love that look too - it's bright, clean and classic without being stark. Think about a warm white as it'll pick up warmth of Creme Brulee caesarstone. Perhaps look at Dulux Antique White. Remember too if there's a colour that matches your caesarstone and you like it you can do it in half or quarter strength so that it tones but isnt the same. If you can only get small paint chip samples grab a bunch of them and tape them together and put them in the space your cabinets will be with a sample of the caesarstone - paint colours change depending upon light. Good luck.

Just to confirm, by combination washer/dryer, you mean one machine performs both functions, correct? Some years ago, we bought one for our apartment. It was a good brand. It did not dry clothes properly, took forever, many drying cycles, and never dried clothes completely, so I cannot recommend.

Finally the job of replacing the spa bath with a normal bath has started. Firstly, part of kitchen ceiling removed to undo spa waste, then row of tiles removed to jiggle out the spa - no good! Plumber had to cut spa shell in 2 with grinder to remove. New replacement bath, same make and model, now installed, waterproofing done, tiler called in to assess the retiling job. I thought I'd be clever and order some white replacement tiles to help - ha, tiler says they are a slightly different colour but have just enough of originals to finish the job. Heading in the right direction!!
