Wardrobe Repair

• The weight of the mirrored doors had slowly failed the hinges. Strangely it was the left hand door on both wardrobes (the pics taken after the rhs was repaired).

• Fitted new hinge plates that sat slightly further into the wardrobe and used the wide diameter furniture screws.

Old toilet, new toilet

• New toilet. Simple, just as chic and easily serviceable. Like it has always been there.
