HI Emily Carpeting bedrooms is only dictated by your budget. The only variable is the price of the carpet, all other costs (installation, smoothedge, underlay) will be the same no matter what you choose. When you say remove wooden floors....do you know what is already installed? If you are only wanting to take the wood from the bedrooms but leave it in hallways etc, then the cost to remove wood planks (laminate?) may be around $20 per m2... A lot depends on how the timber was installed, so I think it's best to get in a professional and get a free quote. Good luck.

Wow! What an incredible view you have! I think you first need to frame it out. I would suggest changing out the carpet with hardwood floors with a worn or weathered look. Definitely get rid of the plastic and replace with white base moulding. Next I would paint the walls a color in the pale grey or grey/blue family. Next, I would suggest some crisp white sheers to frame each window. In the pictures, it looks like the Windows on the right are two windows wide. If so, I would also place panels in the middle of those 2 windows to continue framing the view. These are for decorative purposes only and not intended to distract from the view. It looks like there is a big space between two of the windows. I would locate a large architectural piece to place on that wall to add some interest. Remove all the small items from the window ledges. Finally, I would love a round table in that space. Good luck with your reno!

This weatherboard home was in need of a makeover. The client wanted a look that was clean, bright, chic, modern and comfortable. This was achieved using white walls and subway tiles in the kitchen to make the most of the beautiful original hardwood flooring. These light tones are set off beautifully with the gold hardware and grey marbled benchtop. The kitchen and home went from drab to fab and the clients couldn't be happier! Check out the full project here. Don't be a stranger - if you're in the Wellington area contact me to see how I can help you achieve this result in your home. BEFORE AFTER

Hi Temika We do this successfully on renovations. You do need to be mindful that the concrete under a copper washer are thick. Most floors can be matched successfully without over laying.
