Hamish Dodd and Alex Breingan inspect the house
So last Sunday after the show, Alex & Hamish started to design in the first part of Alex & Hamish’s Extreme Home Renovation Project!
We walked through the property and discussed the various options of what needs to be fixed to make it habitable and talked about materials, colours, products and the overall look. We are looking at a complete renovation here – almost nothing will stay. The kitchen and bathrooms need to be stripped out and remodelled. The carpet will come up and new floorings go down – but what sort? Tiles, carpet, vinyl or polish the original boards?
Tune in the Design & Build this coming Sunday as we discuss the options and start to put together a plan.
Here’s a load of photos of Hamish Dodd with his design face on (The Design Face you may recognise from the telly!)

Yes, the shower curtain rail is shaped like that!

Nice, if you like pink!

This bedroom's not damp.

The Frigidaire 24 Wall Oven. A classic.

Spouting, the roof and some lichen.

A gem of a vanity!
