A lot of us dream of a new bathroom or kitchen - but renovation doesn't always have to be about stripping parts of your house back to the frame or completely replacing all of your existing fixtures.

Sometimes it's just as effective to replace one or two things - a fresh shower stall, a new oven - or even just some new taps and a fresh coat of paint. Amazing what a difference some of the simpler, less complicated changes can make to the way your house looks and feels.
