A slight change can make the world of difference!
Do you want to improve the look and the value of your property without breaking the bank. Often, a relatively cost-effective "cosmetic" solution is the answer and that's where we will be able to assist and advise you.
TILING:
A tired bathroom can be made to look fantastic just by replacing the tiles. If the budget spreads to it, of course new fixtures also help, but if you are working on a shoe-string budget, think about re-doing just the tiles. New tiles will lift the look of the bathroom and if you can afford to go from floor to ceiling, do so, just from a hygiene and health point of view. The damp bathroom atmosphere is the perfect environment for the growth of mould. Floor to ceiling tiles will minimise that risk.
Tiled floors are a dream to clean, look VERY smart and modern and will make any room look bigger. They are also lovely and cool in our hot KZN summers and rugs and loose carpets can alleviate the chill of winter.
An often over-looked use of tiles is their use as a decorative feature. Natural stone tiles look stunning and will create a WOW! feature wall, indoors or outdoors.
We will be able to advise you on the best tile to use for the area you are wanting to cover.
One of the things that needs to be considered is safety : - certain areas like bathrooms; kitchens and verandahs/patios, because of the possibility of wet conditions, need anti-slip or slip-resistant tiles that have a textured surface.
The other aspect to be considered when choosing your tiles is durability : - High traffic areas like entrance halls, living rooms and of course, commercial areas will need a stronger tile. Again, our experts will be able to assess the area of installation and advise you on which tiles you need.
Then think about the installation : - Tiling is a meticulous job that should be done by people who know what they are doing. Nothing looks worse than a sloppy/botched tiling job! Attention to detail is critical not only in the laying but also in the finishing.
It also pays to have an expert advise you on how many tiles you need for the coverage you want, so that the budget can be spread a little further.
PAINTING:
Another way to make a huge difference to the look and value of your property is by painting the walls. This will give your rooms a fresh feel and will give your home a whole new lease on life. Painting is not a "fun job" for most people so if you want our team of experienced painters to do the job for you professionally and speedily, we are your guys!!
CEILINGS:
Ceilings are getting more attention these days. Gone is the flat, boring white Rhinoboard of the last century. Ceilings have become striking decorative features of modern homes, with 3D effects and concealed lighting which can either be subtle and classic, or bright, colourful and fun depending on the room and its decor. We have become very proficient in doing these ceiling installations.
BATHROOM RENOVATIONS & PLUMBING
If your budget allows, a total bathroom make-over will not only elevate your home to whole new level, but will also make you wonder how you managed before with that tired old showerhead and cramped shower with a curtain!! Along with new sanitary-ware and fixtures, you will probably need the plumbing revamped as well. We offer the complete service to make your bathroom "reno" as painless and as beautiful as possible.
