Window Repair - Emily's Room

A storm had blown out one of the panes in Emily's room over the term.  We had the glazier finally come and replace all four panes with toughened glass.  The orginal glass was only 2mm thick and the new glass is 4mm thick so it will be much warmer and also more sound proof.

Lounge Windows:
The window frames can only fit the thinner glass; and I felt we could only warrant 4mm glass in the lounge window - in case it gets chipped by a stone again

We will look into getting Comfort Plus glass put into the kitchen and family room area.  It is a laminated safety glass with a permanent transparent coating that is glazed on the inside-facing surface.  It provides the following benefits:

• High daylight transmission of up to 76 percent
• Solar control, with up to 70 percent of solar heat transmission eliminated
• Thermal insulation - a 30 percent improvement over standard glass
• Fading reduction - reduces UV radiation by as much as 99 percent
• Safety - ComfortPlus is Grade A safety glass, reducing the potential for injury and if broken.
• Noise - reducing voice noise by 13 percent and traffic noise by 24 percent.

The Kitchen

This is a project that started in January with planning etc and finally the kitchen is almost finished! It as a challenge to use the piano room during the winter months as a makeshift kitchen so it is wonderful to use a proper kitchen again.

Just a little crowning around the microwave and rangehood units and the window sills, skirting and flooring to do.....

I would thoroughly recommend Gold Kitchens - Jordan was a great help and very patient with my changes and editions to the kitchen (which were sooo worth it).

Walls:  Resene Double White Pointer

The Roof - Gable Roof Replacement

30 April 2015 - The Gable Roof Replacement  

The roof over the kitchen was leaking in heavy rain and of course we didn't want to compromise the new ceiling of our kitchen.    We had Shamrock Roofing come into do the fix!

Now the main roof looks a little lacking - and for a mere $10,000.00 we can replace this! As scaffolding is included in this price we will go ahead in the summer and paint the top half of the house while they are at it!
