I can tell that you are not writing from Boston! :>) Well, if you want white cabs, use your trim paint in a gloss. If you need to fill with molding from the top of the cabinet to the ceiling, it will match. I love blue and white in a kitchen.

Astraea, when I emptied mum's unit, I just absolutely turned everything upside down and inside out. Luckily I found money in the first drawer I opened that put me on my guard. Talking about going out in the car reminded me - mum had a disabled parking sticker that had to be attached to the windscreen if the car she was in was parked in a disabled parking area. When she came to live with me I kept it in the glovebox of my car at the ready, but somewhere along the line when mum had first got the sticker someone must have given her very clear instructions to ensure she kept the sticker with her at all times as they were readily stolen. Obviously whoever had explained said that it had to be displayed on the windscreen when the car was parked, but mum, in the fog she was in by this time, didn't get that bit. One time I had to go to the RTA to have mum's address changed to mine so of course I had to take her with me for her to verify things. I parked in a disabled spot as they are wider for wheelchair access, put the sticker on the windscreen, got the wheelchair out of the boot and got mum into it, not taking any notice of anything she was doing. We got into the RTA, took a number and waited a while before we were served, then I took mum over to the counter and explained the situation, whereupon mum pulls the sticker out of her handbag to show the clerk. Of course I freaked as they are very quick to book you if you are illegally parked in these spaces and told mum she wasn't to take it off the windscreen again. Mum felt she was really going to get one up on me as she was always going crook at me putting it on the windscreen for people to see it and break into the car to steal it, and told the clerk to tell me the rules how I wasn't to leave it in the car. I think the poor woman wet herself seeing the comedy side of it, but trying to keep a straight face while she tried to get through to mum that it had to be on the windscreen. Of course mum just kept arguing with her then that she knew better because of what she had been told. In the end the clerk told me to get back to the car before I got booked but said to let her know if I was and she would try to clear things for me. Fortunately I wasn't but after that I had to be so careful to ensure I put the sticker on my side of the car (which it wasn't supposed to be) but it was the only way I could stop mum getting to it.

Yes I was asking another question, given the light on the property , would white frames be too glary/stark? Also there are different types of rendering- the acrylic and the painted on ,anyone know how much more expensive the acrylic might be?

Ouch! redoing the job means scraping out the old grout and replacing. In my limited experience tilers hate doing this and may miss bits, I don't think the grout is as solid afterward either, ok on walls not so good on busy floors. If the grout hasn't been sealed and given that it is so absorbent anyway it should be simple to recolour, just test first as it may change colour when it dries. Then use a quality tile and grout sealer, worth the time imho. I would hesitate to tell a professional tiler which brand of grout to use unless you have experience, they differ in quality, colour is up to you of course.
