Outsdtanding!! So inspirational to anyone wanting to take the plunge but perhaps don't think it can work!! Lots of $$$$ though I would imagine but what an amazing transformation from the '70's to modern day living.

Hi again. Finally took the plunge and had the kitchen resprayed. So much lighter and a great job by the professionals. Hard to remember the mustard kitchen now, except the photos remind me.

you probably need a crowd of tradesmen to do all the work (carpenter, kitchen cabinet maker, plumber, electrican. painter, tiler, flooring installer etc) and you can have a builder take control and organise all the workers but the actual design can be done by you or an architect, building designer or kitchen cabinet makers might be able to help but, it depends on what needs doing...why not post some photos and a plan or a rough sketch of the existing rooms (including measurements, position of windows and doors and names of adjoining rooms) with a list of what you like and don't like and invite HOUZZERS to make specific suggestions so that when you need to contact the professionals you have a better idea of what you need

underfloor heating can be installed under some new floating floors and fitted carpets but you'd need to contact the manufacturers of the flooring and heaters to confirm precise conditions to suit your existing timber floor but we have an electric blanket style floor heater that slips underneath an area rug and is excellent for keeping feet warm under a table or desk and just plugs into a wall outlet ...we're very happy with our Coldbuster heaters that can be ordered on line in various sizes but first try some large area rugs for instant insulation that can be removed in hot weather
