At the age of 69 Reg took on the project to redecorate and improve our home inside. He pulled out our kitchen and we purchased a new one through Mitre 10 with help from their expert. Reg fitted it with more help from Mitre 10. Our benchtop was not what we ordered so it was returned the bench manufacturer with about an hour to spare. Time was of the essence as it depended on other aspects of the kitchen. Now to plumb everything in again and new appliances to be installed. From the kitchen he started at one end of the house strippng all the walls of paper (with help from me and our family, they loved pulling the paper off after being growled at when they were young for doing such a thing). After all the stripping came the painting sanding etc then re-papering the walls right throughout the house. Not looking too bad. Then came the vinyl and carpet laying. (Done through a company) Now the curtains and drapes. All done. What a transformation. Since then he has redecorated family homes as well. Age is now getting against him so things are getting a bit harder for him.
