I once had some commercial equipment removed from a cafeteria. After seeing the 1/4-3/8 inch thick grease buildup on the sides of the fryer, my appetite for fried foods disappeared for a time. We actually started by scraping with a 2 inch putty knife. Then, we tried everything we could find. For places you could cover, we sprayed with oven cleaner and covered with plastic which was the method used for the company's candy production equipment. They sprayed everything on Friday night and let it sit for the weekend and cleaned it on Monday. The best product I have ever found was "grease control" from the Odo-ban company which is actually an emulsifier so much more green than the toxic chemicals found in some of the cleaners.

A good tile installer that knows what he is doing, can easily remove that single piece of tile.... carefully replace it with another one. Do you have another extra pieces of the same tile? Do you know what brand and color the existing grout is? That will be more of the issue trying to get the grout match to match up or the finding the same tile (in the same dye lot) if you need to buy another tile. Did the heat cause the break or did a pan bang into the glass? Consider installing a heat resistant Lumicor or 3 Form panel behind the stove. Any flat material that can be sandwiched between two resin panels. 1). Crushed glass. 2). Fabric. 3). Fabric. 4). Fabric.

hi Archana.. you could maybe panel the column and beam with slats.. and go for a thick fabric headboard that is backlit.. also, the thickness of the headboard in this will be lesser on the coulmn side and more on the wall side (almost like a ledge on which you could rest an abstract artwork painting) the wall can be done in simple paint or a brick/concrete texture or a wallpaper. attaching a picture of one of my designs for another side have similar issue.. hope that helps! best of luck and regards, Rajvi

Hi Mayukha, Your home looks lovely. From the image you shared, it looks like all you need is a few changes to give the exterior a contemporary look and feel. We suggest switching the three-panel windows and the flooring to something more modern. Here is our portfolio of projects. We can discuss design ideas in detail, if you're interested.
