Moving makeover


"What were we thinking; what had we got ourselves into"? These were the thoughts that ran through the minds of the Hoopers when it actually became time to start renovating their new home.

A quick refurnish of the exterior was mainly because of council regulations, though it was definitely in serious need of a makeover!  This house was transported onto a piece of land, and required to be beautified in order to fit into its surroundings, within one year of the house move, in accordance with the local Council. Even though this was a stressful time, it did provide the motivation for a quick repaint resulting in an attractive, modern home.

With the help of friends and family their dream house had emerged. Rotten weatherboards were replaced, old paint was removed, boards were bogged, sanded, etc, and then finally the fun part, the painting. The paint used for the roof was Resene High Tide, weatherboards were painted in Resene Half Tea; and the eaves, verandah poles, bases boards, doors were painted in Resene White.
