Ditch budget blow-outs and know exactly what your reno or build will cost.
Most renovators fall in the trap of guesstimating. You can completely avoid this and accurately know what your renovation will cost
Budget blow-outs happen because people missed key trades, materials, or small extras that really add up fast. Or because they choose products at the start of their project, without having a clear picture of all the costs that are to come.
That’s exactly why we created the Budget Tracker.
It comes pre-loaded with every trade, product + supplier — so you know what to include in your budget and don’t miss a thing. There’s no second-guessing. Plan renovation costs with confidence from day one.
Plan one room at a time or your whole home at once — your budget tracker has the flexibility to work how want to.
Why it works:
✔️ No guesswork — know exactly what costs to allow for, room by room
✔️ Pre-loaded categories — every trade, product + supplier your project will need
✔️ Track spend in real time — compare what you planned vs what you’re actually spending
✔️ Quick-start estimates — calculate total renovation costs in minutes
✔️ Customisable — works whether you're planning one bathroom or an entire home
✔️ Built-in contingency + quote tracking — so nothing slips through the cracks
✔️ Use it again and again — perfect for this project and future renos
It’s for you if:
➡️ You don’t know what your project will actually cost
➡️ You’ve started planning but feel like costs are getting out of control
➡️ You want to avoid budget blowouts and know exactly what you’re in for
➡️ You’re juggling quotes and need one place to track everything
➡️ You want total clarity — not chaos and cost surprises
Use your budget tool your way and get a full cost breakdown of your project in minutes, with every dollar tracked from start to finish.

After building a new home, it was clear that one thing had to go - the old Plasma. But how do you pick a new TV when there are so many to choose from? And with technology moving so fast, what features should you expect?
Zephyr and Stone: Scandinavian Living Room
We wanted a TV that ticked all the boxes but didn’t quite know what those boxes were. So we made a list -
Looks super sleek and stylish (that was me - for me)
Childproof menu navigation (also me - for the kids of course)
One-touch buttons and Apps (yep - me too)
Colour Brilliance, Wide Display Angle, Image Clarity and Sound Quality (Ummm, that was the other adult in the house)
Voice Activation (me again - because the possibility of something in the house doing what it was told sounded too good to be true)
The LG 65” Super UHD 4K Smart TV came up trumps. Long technical name right? So what does it mean and do exactly? We asked the same question and here’s what we found out…
Hey Good Looking.
Let’s be honest, first things first it had to look good! With open plan living meaning it’s front and centre in our home, minimal design and a sleek profile was a non-negotiable. The LG black frame blends perfectly with the flat screen so from a distance it appears to be one flat surface. Cords tuck away neatly behind so there’s nothing unsightly, and you can do away with set-top boxes and other devices as it does the lot - apps, internet and all.
Tick, the first box checked.
Keep It Simple.
The next box to be ticked was usability (read: childproof menu navigation). So that was actually for me too…because let’s face it, the kids usually have it all worked out before I’ve even seen the remote, and who actually has time to read instructions? There was no need for the LG Smart TV technology. It’s simple to operate, with everything we need at our fingertips. You can stream videos online, watch YouTube and search for your favourite scenes within seconds. Seriously, there’s even a Netflix button on the remote. #Genius

Voice Activated.
Here’s that feature you don’t know you need until you’ve used it! By speaking into the remote, your LG AI TV can make suggestions for TV shows, movies or music it thinks you’ll like by learning your viewing habits and patterns. Can’t find something new to watch? Just ask your TV!
Google Assistant.
You can even ask your TV questions while you watch your favourite shows, and the answers appear on the screen. Now that’s convenient - LG what’s for dinner…unfortunately it won’t cook the meal for you…yet, but you can find recipes online. Plus the option of controlling smart home devices like temperature and lighting, all without interrupting The Block. Finally, a TV that has its priorities right!

Image Clarity.
Okay, my list is looking pretty good, but what about the other half? To get his tick our TV needed to be clear and sharp, especially for Sports and Movies. The LG UHD/4K resolution ensures that images are strikingly vivid. The Smart TV ticks that box with super-smooth fast-moving images and reduced motion blur - perfect for watching Hawthorn win the Finals. Tick.
Colour Brilliance.
The superior colour goes hand in hand with picture quality, and thanks to something called SuperUHD TV and NanoCell Technology, you can expect eye-catching, super-intense colour. This results in realism and depth onscreen that totally transforms your viewing experience.
Tick, tick and tick.

Wide Angle Display.
And what about when friends come over? The image needed to be clear, even for those sitting on the outskirts. LG has that sorted - the NanoCell Technology ensures the image remains consistent at wider viewing angles. No need to sit front and centre anymore - suddenly every seat becomes the best seat in the house.
Sound Quality.
It absolutely had to deliver on sound quality (I decided this was for me too). The LG has a powerful new Alpha 7 Gen2 Intelligent Processor - in a nutshell, expect a truly spectacular sound experience.
So there you have it - a TV that is so much more and ticks all the boxes, being both functional and technology savvy whilst looking great whether it’s turned on or off. Oh, and it’s available to shop at Betta.com.au
