If painting it I would try a different color for sure, but I'd look into wrapping it so it matches the stove. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-14-08 |
It’s a beautiful kitchen but it could use a pop of color. If you paint the same color of the walls, it will disappear. 🤔 | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-14-08 |
That or it may be worth trying a metallic paint to match the stove although I could see the results being less than stellar | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-14-08 |
Do you have contact with local artists to create a center piece in your kitchen? An artist touch would really be a conversation piece | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-14-08 |
Sorry for the semi related question. Is that just drywall with slits in the back to let it curve? | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-14-08 |
Why don’t you paint it to match the upper cabinets? | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Get it wrapped with panels and stain to match the cabinets. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Too funny! Yeah I don’t think I want the same color of the lowers but maybe something darker than the wall. The oak trim is really pretty; I’ve seen a few of those. I’m still conflicted on tile since I want to keep it simple. Maybe if it looks too pedestrian we may tile it but I want to see if I can live with it like t... | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
It’s a frame that oddly took awhile to build. The front are flex boards bent to shape and the frame itself is 2x4s. The sides are drywall, I shouldn’t tell you what material they used for the front since I didn’t witness that part. It’s been a labor intensive job for something seemingly simple. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
*couldn’t* tell you | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
We did contemplate oak for the surround but opted out for a more simplistic look. I semi regret that decision now. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Alison Victoria would have it be brass
Or black | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Brass would have been unique. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Very similar to what we're doing. White wood and dark grey island theme. Opting to keep hood white | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Could suit a micro cement finish? | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
No. Copper | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Paint it a contrasting color or to match the cabinets. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
I vote same color as lowers or have it wrapped in same wood as uppers.
Just curious, how come you went with white above the fridge instead of the wood color? It might just be this angle but I feel like it looks out of place in white? Also are all those recessed lights on the same switch or are they different switches... | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
We tiled to the ceiling and really like it. It's a simple subway design but the tiles have a lot of irregularities so it gives it some character.
Now that we are looking at it, a darker color may look good on our hood.
Good luck! Don't sweat the decision too much! | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
My vote is to either have a cabinet made for it, have a lower surround made or somehow paint it to match the uppers. It’ll look confusing if it’s a different color. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Have you thought about, maybe, putting tin on it? Or maybe aluminum? | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Take a picture from another angle where the hood is not blocked. Upload the photo to an online photo editor app. Use it to change the hood to any color you want before you paint. Look up canva or the link before: go to paint a photo and upload yours:

Nope, cabinets or on its own. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
I know that’s just the first coat but that is some terrible plastering job. It should tie in with the cooker so look towards that for inspiration on what colour to paint it | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
It’s joint compound, not plaster. The first coat here is just to bury the drywall tape. The next two are scratch and finish coats which will give it a finished look. It’s got a long ways to go. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Correct but when I flush I make the first coat which you referred to as joint compound much neater and then it’s only two coats of plaster to finish it, people get too heavy with the first coat which just makes the following coats more work | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Yes the same but place the paint horizontal. Literally paint it on in a horizontal, side to side motion rather than up down. Do the walls up down.or vice versa. The light will hit ever so slightly different. You could do a semigloss rather than egg shell which would also make cleaning a tad bit easier, and increase the... | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
We painted ours to match the wall. Similar hood style too

I’d cover it in metal that matches your pot filler | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
This is why designers draw things before building them. Mock it up in full color so you’re not just guessing. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Are you happy with your choice? Beautiful kitchen! | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Yes. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Very happy with our entire kitchen. The beige is easy to clean!
What I learned is this whole thing is the sum of a lot of little choices. We even pinged our contracting team for their advice on what they do most commonly. Our finish carpenter saved our ass when he noticed we had chosen 3 different cabinet handles for ... | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
A bold, dark, and high gloss accent color. There’s grease in that air. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Paint the same as cabinets and trim in brass | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Complete noob to this but aren't these normally made from wood? | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
that floor looks nice. what material is it? Do you have a link online I can see the product? | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Trim maybe, not not walls. It's not a wall. Pick a dark green that plays well with the cabinets? Or match the cabinet lowers.
Also, you're going to need to wipe that down regularly, so semigloss or better. Stick on stainless steel is an option. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Provenza Moda LVP in first crush. 100% recommend. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
LVP really? wow looks like real wood. Thanks. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Matching the cabinets seems the only way to me, or a pastel of accent color. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Go with a gloss finish | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-16-08 |
I want to do something like this to a wall, but with movie posters (for my movie room). What would be the best way to print and the best Paper to use? | r/renovations | post | r/Renovations | 2024-14-08 |
The best and fastest way would be to have all the stickers you want in the room. Put some kids in there and say “DO NOT STICK THEM TO THE WALLS”. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-14-08 |
Good suggestion. I'll keep that in mind | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-14-08 |
I'd start with cheap wallpaper, then literally stickerbomb it. The reason I say wallpaper is so that you can easily remove the stickers if you want to repaint the wall, sell it, etc. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-14-08 |
So making custom stickers of the posters I want would be the best idea then? Never thought about actually doing it like that | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-14-08 |
You can always buy something like contact cement and apply a light coat to the back of them. Wouldn't be difficult.
If you're doing it to cheap wallpaper, who cares what you do to it? | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-14-08 |

A strip of the floor tile with a metal edging (like schluter tile edging) against the wood. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-14-08 |

Your contractor/tile setter/hardwood installer all fucked you.
Tile should be finished halfway through a door (ideally with a schluter or Jolly trim) and the hardwood should have been finished up to it in a perfectly straight line for no transition.
At this point, might be easier to remove the last piece of hardwoo... | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
You’re right but the hardwood can be beveled up to match the height of the tile. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
One of those has to end ideally under where the door shuts | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-18-08 |
Hi everyone, I wonder if, after curing, we should put something on the concrete to protect it from scratches (we got lots of dogs). Some people talk about sealant, but others say don't bother, the sealant will go away anyway (because of scratches). What is your idea on this ? And if sealant, what brand or product do yo... | r/renovations | post | r/Renovations | 2024-14-08 |
Hi everyone,
Contractors are working on stairs, they replaced the treads and installed painted white plywood for the piano look. However two things i need opinions on:
1. The side molding. Looks old or ugly. What can be done? It also hides the imperfect sides.
2. The railings from the bottom of stairs can see the ra... | r/renovations | post | r/Renovations | 2024-14-08 |
I should add that when i say side moulding i mean on the exposed side of the staircase. The moulding underneath the treads and steps. Right side coming down the steps | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-14-08 |
This single horseshoe divider was stuck, tiler didn’t smooth around edge causing thinset leak? Any recommendations to get it low enough for grout? | r/renovations | post | r/Renovations | 2024-14-08 |

I’m building a custom shedding. I can’t decide between 8 feet height and 7 foot height so my general contractor framed out both heights so I can see what it would look like. One photo is unadulterated in the next photo you’ll see in yellow and red the differences in the sight lines. thoughts? | r/renovations | post | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |

Go bigger. It's not like you've got a view of the lake or something. One foot higher isn't going to make that much difference, and if your husband is 6'3" he'll hit his head a lot less with a higher ceiling. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Does one change any permits needed/not needed? | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Eight is the way to go… and don’t worry about the sight line. Either the shed will be functional or it will be one foot shorter. The shed itself will already affect the view so you might as well make it functional. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |

Build it as big and as tall as your bylaw allows. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Go 8 ft if only for the reason you do not have to cut wall studs to length. Will turn out a better product and remove alot of error traps. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Why only limit yourself to a 8” shed. Think bigger my guy 🤣 | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
7' | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Tell me more about why | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
I like to keep the lowest profile possible. I prefer a nearly flat metal roof for the same reason. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
If you build it 8ft, you can use the full height of a sheet of hardy/ply on the front and back. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Just build it as is and water the neighbors bushes! | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Obviously, know nothing about framing. Not cutting 8’ studs would make the walls 8’-4-1/2”. Your method would only lead to “ error traps “ ! | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |
Sightline? To your neighbours cedars and rear of their house?
Plant some dogwood or whatever low woody shrub is appropriate for your zone around the base (not too close!) and the height will shrink as the plant grows. | r/renovations | comment | r/Renovations | 2024-15-08 |

That’s a lot of extra storage that you’ll need down the line trust me. Where I live the bylaw is 160sf by 3.9meters. So I built a 13x12x12high shed and I love it.
