Comments (17)do as Dundrum says. although your pic doesn't show the rest of the street I suspect there is a strong symmetry with the other houses. this needs to be kept. a statement is what this house eally doesn't need. As has been said, refresh the exterior paintwork keeping it the same as the neighbours and/or in line with that of the other houses on the street, and generally smarten up what is there. the hedge on the left should be clipped. the tree on the right is a yew and should not be touched. it is a slow grower and will cause no problems. if it is bothering you the whole tree and not just your side can be trimmed by a third. one thing that would be good is to remove all the weeds from the gravel, possibly relay the gravel if needed, and introduce some sort of threshold between you and the road - it may already exist underneath the weeds....See MoreWhat should we put around our boiler?
Comments (7)I'd be tempted to box it all in and have one large door or 2 narrower doors for access. I don't think I'd want pipes on show....There also seems to be gaps between the gaps; any spills will consequently leak below which won't be healthy for the cabinets. You may loose a little work top space but it will definitely look neater. Alternatively. you could have a wider box around the boiler and a slightly narrow one for the pipes, having doors for both for ease in access....See MoreHelp! what would you do to modernise this kitchen?
Comments (6)Hi, It all depends on what your budget is. If you are on a very limited budget I'd consider the following: - Leave the existing units and get new doors; much less hassle than painting and cheaper than buying whole new cabinets. I'd look at light coloured gloss doors to reflect light - Change worktop to give an updated look... you could opt for wood effect, speckled or a plain block worktop. A good quality laminate worktop can last and give the effects of solid worktops at a fraction of the price. - Box in the boiler and pipes, A joiner should easily do this for you, makes the space look more neater and safer. - If you could replace tiles (may damage plastering), I'd go for an upstand and use scrubbable paint elsewhere with a glass splashback behind the cooker. This is a cheaper alternative to retiling or getting a full length glass splashback. Could you get integrated appliances? Good luck...See MorePatrina
