Well last week i started to gut my villa.
i decided to keep all the rubish in one room and hire a bin once all the old stuff is pulled out.
so far the following has been removed
carpet and underlay
corneis to most rooms
half the kitchen
all the doors but the front and bathroom (we might need this one lol)
half the tiles to the kitchen.
Still need to remove the rest of the kitchen, more tiles and the bathroom tiles, sink and vanity. thinking about taking out the steel door jambs if i can remember how they install em and replace them with timber.
Plans are to do the following
Install a new kitchen and make it more open by removing a wall (think its load bearing but i have no checked yet), re tile the kitchen and up date all fittings.
Put a Bi-Fold to the bathroom as its way small and this will free up space, along with retiling and new vanity, sink, fixtures and fittings, painting the bath tub. thinking about a glass sliding door to the shower/bath combo as i hate them shower curtins.
Apply plasterboard to the walls as there rendered brick, new corneis and skirting.
Re-trim and paint the aluminium window framing from brown to black, apply new locks
Lay a floating floor to the living areas.
New doors, through out with all updated fittings.
My aim is to jst make the place look more up to date as its old n looks like the previous owners tried to do things on a mass budget. I hope to get an increaased return in rent with more qui. in the property for my next purchase
