I would like to refresh the interior (first phase) and exterior (second phase) of my house. The interior refresh will include painting the bathroom tiles, painting the floor tiles (whole house) and fixing cracks and holes in current tiling. The kitchen cabinets, tiles and walls will also require painting. Finally the interior walls will require repainting. Hopefully this can be done before the holidays. The exterior refresh will include repainting the boundary walls and the house exterior walls including the garage doors. Palisade fence between neighbors will also need to be painted white. This can happen in January.

I want to extend my master bedroom by about 2.5m. Width of the bedroom is 4.0m. Roof height about 2.5m In the attachment: The dark grey walls are the existing bedroom. The cavity currently contains a window and a door, which will have to be removed and are not suited to reuse. The pink walls are for the extension. The thin pink line is a window. The slatted pink is the roof. The roof is flat and just an extension of the patio roof. No cupboards. Floor probably tiles.
