  • Winterheart replied to the topic renovating a motorhome in the forum Value Adding 17 years ago

    Renovating an existing motorhome would be distinctly easier, as all the essentials are already in place, eg wiring for 12/240, plumbing for fresh and waste, storage etc.If you were to convert a bus over, you would need to get all the fixtures and fittings, plumbing, electrical etc etc done, which would work out more expensive.  The flipside of…[Read more]

  • Winterheart replied to the topic Stamping concrete in the forum Value Adding 17 years ago

    As you have already said you don't want to stamp it or paint it, the only other options I know of are to tile it, or get some chemical cleaning done.  The chemical cleaning will for lack of a better description strip the upper most layer of the concrete off to expose fresh white concrete.Just my thoughts, comments and opinions.  Cheers :)

    (I posted in your doublepost of this thread, so thought I'd copy paste into this one too)OK, as a tiler I have some bad news for you.  There is no way to fix the issue of no fall on the bathroom floor other than to rip it up and redo it all.  The builder who did the work should be contacted and made to rectify the work under warranty, as being a w…[Read more]

  • OK, first things first, was the person who was chatting running a business offering or giving financial advice in return for consideration or attempting to influence someone to do something?  If yes, then they should have an AFS licence unless exempted under the statute.Secondly, if they should have a licence and fail to do so, they leave t…[Read more]

  • Winterheart replied to the topic Bathroom Renovation Costs in the forum Value Adding 17 years ago

    As mentioned above, the costs will vary depending on numerous factors including tiles used, fixtures and fittings used, amount of work required in the reworking of the plumbing etc etc.  I don't know any tradies up sydney way, but I would hazard a guess that from what you've described a starting budget of $5000 wouldn't be out of the ballpark,…[Read more]

    OK, as a tiler I have some bad news for you.  There is no way to fix the issue of no fall on the bathroom floor other than to rip it up and redo it all.  The builder who did the work should be contacted and made to rectify the work under warranty, as being a wet area it must be screeded and a fall built into the base prior to tiling.That said, y…[Read more]

  • Winterheart replied to the topic HELP – Tenant not paying rent in the forum I’m not an expert in the 17 years, 1 month ago

    I'm not an expert in the area, but from my limited knowledge you should be able to also sue them for breach of contract as well as there is clear proof that all the basic requirements for a contract to be valid are present in the form of the contract of sale.  In addition, the court may be able to issue an order for specific performance in…[Read more]

  • Winterheart replied to the topic Heidelberg Heights a good area? in the forum Help Needed! 17 years, 1 month ago

    I've spent a substantial amount of time in that general area early last year and I would recommend away from it, it's got a reputation for being a bit rough for a reason.Just my thoughts, comments and opinions.Cheers :)

  • I know of one female in the brickies trade in Melbourne.  Other than that, I know one female tiler, also in Melbourne.  I did know of a female sparky in canberra but last I heard she'd dropped out of the apprenticeship.Cheers :)

  • Winterheart replied to the topic sick of greedy plumbers & electricians in the forum OK, the following is my 17 years, 1 month ago

    OK, the following is my opinion and thoughts on this entire thread and the subject it covers:Firstly, as with all levels of society, trades have their share of ethical issues and interpersonal relationship problems.  If you have a problem with a particular tradesperson, talk with them about it first in a calm rational manner.  You would be s…[Read more]

  • Winterheart replied to the topic Re doing tiles in the forum Value Adding 17 years, 1 month ago

    To the original poster, the first thing you need to do is to ascertain what the cause of the leak is.  If it's a leaking pipe then you need to get it fixed before worrying about the tiling.  If it's cracked grout and you're prepared to put in a fair few hours of elbow grease, get a grout remover and remove some or all of the grout (bare minimum o…[Read more]
