Bathroom and kitchen transformations can add significant value to your home if you plan to sell. They can also remove the need to move house if your bathroom kitchen transformations are undertaken expertly.
Renovating for Profit’s Cherie Barber is very well-known for her ability to renovate homes with small budgets in mind. Her work in Homes Plus magazine and on The Living Room are beloved by her legion of fans. Why? Because Cherie walks the talk. When she says she’ll undertake DIY bathroom kitchen renovations for a fraction of the ‘usual’ prices, she’s not kidding.
Bathroom Kitchen Transformations w/ Cherie Barber
Cherie has just completed her 100th renovation project so few people are more experienced in adding value to homes via simple DIY projects. She says replacing items such as cabinetry, tubs, basins, and tapware can substantially elevate the budget for bathroom kitchen transformations. So for many of Cherie’s DIY renovation projects she has teamed up with White Knight.
A DIY paint brand, White Knight has an affordable range of specialty products for resurfacing tiles, laminate cupboards, benchtops, basins and bathtubs. When it comes to budget renovations recycling makes sense.
“The kitchen is the engine room and pivotal hub of a home, which can single-handedly add the biggest value to your property. With the right speciality products you can take your kitchen from zero to hero for under $1,000, no matter how much of a scary 70’s screamer it is right now.”
Kitchen Transformations from Zero to Hero
Cherie’s 4-Step Guide to makeover your kitchen.
You’ll need from White Knight:
- Tile & Laminate Cleaner
- Tile & Laminate Primer
- Laminate Paint
- Bench Top Protective Coating
- Taubmans Endure One Coat Ceiling Paint
#Tip: White Knight paints can be tinted 1,000’s of colours to match the colour scheme of your home
Step 1: Instead of costly re-tiling, clean tiles with White Knight Tile & Laminate Cleaner, prime with the White Knight Tile & Laminate primer, and paint with two costs of your choice of White Knight Tile Paint.
Step 2: Structurally solid cabinetry doesn’t need replacing. Simply clean, prime, and paint laminate cupboards as above with the same White Knight products.
Step 3: Similarly, if you have laminate benchtops that are in good condition, you don’t need to replace them. Just follow the same clean, prime, and paint instructions as above. However, finish with the White Knight Top Protective Coating. This hard-wearing, clear coating delivers a tough layer over painted laminate benchtops protecting them from heat, stains, and chemical cleaning products.
Step4: Kitchen ceilings are often discoloured. Finish them off by giving your ceiling a simple lick of paint to instantly refresh the room. Try Taubmans Endure One Coat Ceiling paint.

Step 3: Bring your tiles into the 21st Century with White Knight Tile & Laminate Cleaner, treating them with White Knight Tile & Laminate Primer, and finishing off with two coats of White Knight Tile Paint.
