I’m not sure how to explain it, but I want to renovate my grandmother’s house. It was originally a four-room township house and was extended in . My goal is to improve its functionality and flow by making the kitchen and lounge open plan, fixing the roof, and demolishing the en-suite in the main bedroom. The hallway layout doesn’t make sense, so I’d like to rework it, as well as completely redo the main bathroom. Additionally, I need to address structural issues like the leaking roof, flatten the plaster for a smoother finish, install a stacking door in the lounge, and add a new window in the main bedroom. I also want to replace all windows and doors—both inside and outside—to give the house a cleaner, more modern look. Overall, I just want to make the house neater, more practical, and improve its overall flow.

There is a water leak in my shower. I've called out guys who specialize in water leak detection and they've determined that some of the grouting between the wall tiles in the shower is the cause of the leak. The job is to remove some of the wall tile grouting where required and to re-grout with a proper water-proof grout with matching color of the existing grout. (refer attached picture, the green color is an example of where the grout needs to be replaced)
