Default Before & After Pictures

Everyone loves Before and After pictures. It's inspiring and gives us hope that if they can make something that bad look that good- so can I.

I thought we could share some of our favourite before and after pictures of rooms we have done.

This is a living area in a rental apartment we renovated:

And this is a kitchen I renovated for a client:

Now it's your turn. Do you have any before and after photos?

I thought you might like to see some pictures of a bathroom I renovated recently. Excuse the poor quality of the photos, I am a lousy photographer.

This was a big renovation as we:
Removed the wall separating the toilet.
Bricked in the window that was in the shower looking through to the bedroom (you wouldn't want your privacy with that window lol).
Added a door to the ensuite.
Removed the spa.
Moved the toilet to the other side of the room.
All this moving of the plumbing required enormous chunks of the concrete slab having to be cut out.

So the before pictures.

And now for the after pictures.

Click the image to open in full size. The owners wanted to add a bidet seat on top of the toilet. Apparently it gives you a wash and blow dry. I declined the offer to test it.

Wow, what a great difference. I love the colours in this bathroom. My kind of style. Also great idea of 2 shower roses. We will be having the same on each side of the ensuite shower. I like the top cabinet on the side too.
