Replace triple switch light in hallway

The hallway light button was making buzzing noises. I bought a DETA White Triple Switch from Bunnings for $16. Replacing was easy, just put wires in same spot but do a thorough check that they match up first.

Fix tiles on porch

March 2024.

For the tiles I used this:

For the grout I used the same primer and grout that I used for the shower. If you want to use the primer (think it gives a better bond) it's a 1:1 ratio to mix with water. So if you need 60gm water it's 30gm water and 30gm primer.

Shower repair

Did a full repair on this bastard September 2023.

Grout

Base paint

Silicon

I removed all old silicon. The silicone remove was crap, don't use again.

Cleaned out old silicon from mixer section. The circular tube in the pic below unscrews. Below that, we want to replace the cartridge, the copper thing also unscrews, you'll need a shifter.
