FIX IT WITH FLAIR

It’s that time of year – but there’s a twist! With the addition of an exciting new category, the prize money in our annual Fix it with Flair competition amounts to a whopping R125 000!

#JoJoYourHome! That’s the theme of this year’s Fix it with Flair competition – and rightfully so, because with JoJo’s wide range of water-related products you can live comfortably and beautifully, whether you’re in the heart of the city or deep in the platteland.

It’s simple: JoJo has the solution for all your needs – whether it’s rainwater harvesting, back-up storage for when municipal services are disrupted, or water filtration systems for your kitchen or bathroom. Just plan ahead when you do your next renovation, and JoJo your house for water security.

JoJo, SA’s top domestic water solutions company, has partnered with us once again as headline sponsor for the year. And because they’re committed to sustainability, as is the Tuis|Home team, we’re announcing a brand-new category for 2023 aimed at promoting exactly that: sustainable living, for the love of our precious Mother Earth.

#JoJoYourHome

THE FOUR CATEGORIES

1. DIY

This one is for avid DIYers who take on 50% of the work themselves. So if knocking down walls or retiling doesn’t scare you, go for it! You’ll have to submit a budget breakdown and show what you did with your own two hands.

2. INNOVATION

If you fancy yourself an out-of-the-box thinker, this category is for you. It could be a mobile home, an outdoor kitchen – you name it! Whether you did it yourself or managed the project, feel free to enter your makeover here.

3. MOST BEAUTIFUL

If you’re all thumbs and have a fear of power tools but you oversaw a gorgeous renovation and paid for it, consider this option. Even if a contractor completed 100% of the physical work, you are eligible for this prize.

4. SUSTAINABILITY

This one celebrates forward- thinking plans that put the planet first. It could be a beautiful bathroom with toilets that flush with rainwater, or a natural pool conversion! Even if a contractor completed 100% of the physical work, you are eligible for this prize.
