Kitchens
The kitchen is the most used room in the home. Most people want for their kitchen to be comfortable. If you are thinking about remodelling your kitchen on a budget, you should think about what exactly you want to upgrade to your kitchen. What is it going to be? Is it big and comfortable enough for you to have meals with your family, or long conversations with friends, or is it just a place where you cook?
The function and the size of your kitchen dictate which materials or furniture should be used. Choosing colours for your kitchen is a matter of personal taste, though we do suggest you read our painting and decorating tips.

Bathrooms
Everyone wants luxurious and elegant bathroom. If your bathroom is designed and fitted properly it will be place where you can get rid of your all day stress. Try our design tips for your bathroom. The right design is the key to making your bathroom larger.
Colours
Use lighter, cooler colours. They feel airy and create an illusion of space. Some colours will make it appear smaller though so be careful in your choice. If you have long, narrow bathroom, paint the short walls a darker colour to give them more weight.
Tiles
The size of the tiles you use for your bathroom floor and walls matter a great deal. As a general rule, large cut tiles give your room a larger effect than tiles that are smaller in size. You can give your bathroom an illusion of space by extending the bathroom tiles from the floor to the wall. Try installing tiles with a subtle pattern that repeats on the floor. Emphasize the horizontal. A tile border will do just that.
Bathroom cabinets
The size of the bathroom looks bigger if the appropriate cabinets are put up carefully. Along with giving you extra storing space, cabinets also give your bathroom a much neater and cleaner look. Rather than hanging cabinets that ‘eat’ up space, opt for small floor cabinets.
Light
Go heavy on the lighting. A skylight, a bay window or a glass block wall could do wonders. Keep this rule in mind – more light equals the perception of more space. If natural light is available see if you can increase the size of the source. Replacing the current window with a larger one will add light and also give you an opportunity to add a more energy efficient window. Maybe you can add a skylight, this is an excellent way to bring in more light and increase the feeling of spaciousness. Choose reflective surfaces, such as a shiny marble vanity. By the same principle, put up the biggest mirror you can. Try a glass shower enclosure.
Mirrors
One of the most important element which enhances the beauty of a bathroom is mirror. A bathroom mirror reflects both natural and artificial light in your bathroom and makes it look more spacious. A bathroom mirror is available in different sizes, styles and covers. If you want to give a modern and stylish look to your bathroom you need to choose a right mirror.
Doors
In place of normal doors, go in for sliding doors to make your bathroom appear bigger in size. You will find that slide doors also make your bathroom more spacious.

Flooring
Choosing the type of floor that best fits your space is an important step in planning the installation of your new floor. Before we begin the task of installation, you should give careful consideration to the type of floor you want.
Hardwood Flooring
Hardwood flooring is available in both an unfinished and a pre-finished version. Unfinished flooring must be job-site sanded and finished after installation. Pre-finished flooring is sanded and finished at the factory – so it only needs installation.
Parquet Flooring
Wooden flooring may be laid out in several different ways. The most common styles are parquet, strip and plank flooring. Parquet flooring have a very different look from typical hardwoods. They are made up of geometrical patterns composed of individual wood slates held in place by mechanical fastening or an adhesive.
Laminate Flooring
Laminate flooring is typically constructed with a high density fibre-board core, sandwiched between a melamine laminate backing, high quality photographic paper with an image of wood, stone or other natural flooring, and a melamine laminate top. There are a few new hybrid products that replace the photographic paper with a very thin slice of real wood veneer.Laminate floors are durable, resistant to scratches, stains, UV light and dents. Laminate flooring is susceptible to moisture damage, it is not the best choice for kitchens or bathrooms.
Tiled Flooring
There are many different types of ceramic flooring. Ceramic tiles can be glazed or unglazed. Tiles that are glazed generally have a durable exterior coating that is more resistant to moisture. It is durable, easy to clean, non combustible and fire resistant. Ceramic tile is one of the most durable flooring choices available. With proper care and maintenance, ceramic flooring should last the lifetime of your home. Tile is often considered as elegant as stone, but it’s less expensive. Tile is stylish and relatively durable, but it is also hard and noisy and can be prone to chipping and other signs of wear.
Laminate Flooring vs. Hardwood Flooring
One of the benefits of laminate over hardwoods is that laminate flooring does not yellow or fade from sunlight or other elements. Most stained wood floors will change colour over time. Unlike laminates, though, wood floors can always be restored to their original beauty. On the other hand, laminate floors never need wax or polish. Both hardwood floors and laminates can be affected by excessive moisture, but it is only laminate flooring that can really hold up to being put in a kitchen or bathroom. Rooms that get a lot of moisture are not ideal for hardwoods. Finally, a special padding is required under laminate floors to reduce the floor’s potential for noise. Ultimately, the decision to go with hardwood floors or laminate flooring is best made by examining the best product for your personal needs.
