Heritage Style Restoration 16

Heritage Style Restoration in Strathfield 3
21st OCTOBER 2017
At the turn of the century, in fact, the millennium, I was contracted to build an extension by my favourite client(s) that would blend in with the existing style of the grand house incorporating the particular external features of the existing dwelling, resulting in a bigger kitchen, family room and deck. At the time, I had a bricklayer in tune with period-style brickwork and was conscious of matching the existing style.  A horizontal line was ruled on every horizontal bed.
End result [photo by author ] >>>>>


Features included leadlight windows, recycled red bricks, new blue-black bricks from central NSW Australia, balustrading matching the existing, sub-floor ventilation matching existing, flyscreens blending with heritage style.

    You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation however I in finding this topic to be really one thing which I feel I might by no means understand. It sort of feels too complicated and extremely huge for me. I’m taking a look ahead to your next put up, I will attempt to get the grasp of it!

    Woah! I’m really loving the template/theme of this blog. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s hard to get that “perfect balance” between user friendliness and visual appearance. I must say you’ve done a excellent job with this. Also, the blog loads super quick for me on Internet explorer. Excellent Blog!



  11. Dennis Salsberg on October 19, 2020 at 7:44 pm

    Hmm it seems like your blog ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I wrote and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to the whole thing. Do you have any tips and hints for beginner blog writers? I’d definitely appreciate it.



  12. Deja Munion on October 19, 2020 at 9:47 pm

  13. Karey Garlington on October 19, 2020 at 11:40 pm

    Interesting blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere? A theme like yours with a few simple adjustements would really make my blog shine. Please let me know where you got your theme. Kudos

    With havin so much content do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright violation? My blog has a lot of unique content I’ve either written myself or outsourced but it looks like a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my permission. Do you know any techniques to help stop content from being stolen? I’d definitely appreciate it.

    I’ve been surfing online more than 3 hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. It’s pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all webmasters and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be much more useful than ever before.
