A tribute. Our dad, (papa), turned 100 on Novembe

A tribute.

Our dad, (papa), turned 100 on November 15. What a remarkable achievement considering his arduous start in life. He joined the Romanian Air Force as an apprentice aircraft technician at the age of 15 and trained with his RAF colleagues in Germany during WW2. When Romania switched it's allegience to the allied forces, his group were taken as prisoners of war by the German military, and he spent 9 months in a labour camp at the age of 21.
Thankfully, he survived, and made his way to Australia in 1950 where he met my mum at the Geelong Lawn Tennis Club and dedicated his life to his family and his local community.

This last 12 months has been particularly difficult with our mum dying on Christmas Day and papa having to adjust to getting through each day after their 62 years of marriage. ln March he broke his hip from a bad fall and struggled to manage through surgery and a long stint of rehabilitation, to learn to walk again and regain the physical capabilities to return home. However, having a close-knit family, faith and especially the delight of a new great grandson Hunter, motivated him to push forward, and we are so inspired by his monumental physical and emotional efforts.

Papa is full of love and affection, for roses and his favourite color pink. He is a man who was happy to take his young daughters for a stroll in a pram in the 1960's, so mum could have some time for herself and to carry flowers on the bus home from work each night for her just to show his love. He used to lament having 4 daughters would send him broke having to pay for all the weddings, but this somehow sorted itself out ☺️.

Papa, we love you so much!

Great progress at our Hughesdale project where the original floor frame was under span and warping due to poor drainage and ventilation. GTS Reblocking are diligently levelling the sub floor of the four front rooms and hallway, installing new framework and concrete stumps. As expected in a double brick period home, room levels all conflict with each other, yet we will bring them together day by day to connect in a lifetime of harmony and structural stability.

How lovely are the windows and stucco, plus the original brickwork of course.

Our St Kilda East renovation for @leahlloydsmith i

Our St Kilda East renovation for @leahlloydsmith is now complete! The rear half of this gorgeous Californian bungalow has been given a transformative upgrade.

A structural roof alteration to remove a dividing brick wall allowed a small bedroom to be made more spacious and include new wardrobes and a study nook. The new bathroom includes a generous shower over bath and delightful @tilecloud tiles.

The floor in the rear studio was rebuilt and raised to be flush with the existing jarrah sills and new Tasmanian Oak flooring laid. A sizeable double glazed window lets endless light through. Stucco was added externally to match the existing house.

The laundry was fitted with new cabinetry and wall tiles to provide a much more useful space.

There is an abundance of natural light now and it feels wonderful!

Our remarkable bathroom renovation in Parkville wa

Our remarkable bathroom renovation in Parkville was completed today! A new terrazzo floor was laid, a concrete slab formed where the original bath used to sit and a whole new life given to this beautiful art-deco apartment.

This demolition uncovered a Pandora's box of surprises and complications, more so than on any other renovation, and l owe endless thanks to our tenacious and talented trades who delivered something very special.

Take two: Remember the original 1930's terrazzo we unveiled during our Parkville bathroom renovation? It was too worn to be restored perfectly and needed waterproofing to today's standards.

@ireland_tiling_melbourne waterproofed the floor and walls and @terrazzoman_chriscaruso laid and polished the @defaziotiles terrazzo. It looks sensational. Wall tiles being laid as l write!

l am proudly overbearing when it comes to finishing details and will surreptitiously watch every tile placement around tricky areas. Arif from @ireland_tiling_melbourne actually loves the attention 😄.

We make the effort to ensure our clients approve of the result the first time. Thanks to @leahlloydsmith for extra guidance.
