Counted the total number of panels and added 5m to it but missed out counting the side because blocked by fridge. 😖

Anyway, this kitchen cabinet is already 24 years old and was actually thinking of renovating the kitchen, getting a new set of kitchen cabinet. But new kitchen and old other parts of the house just seem strange.

Kitchen cabinet is $100-$250 per foot run for basic setup and I only spent $125 for the 25m roll of laminate sticker.

Will post pictures once completed and kitchen tidied up. Very messy atm.

Respect bro!

I just completed my refurbish of old kitchen cabinets. Damn tired. I may want to touch up the countertop too but have not decided which one to order. So many choices!

I am thinking of doing the kitchen floor also but scared the online seller send wrong pattern or colour. Lazada don't hold back payment, not like Qoo10, until buyer confirm satisfied with product?

Hi, one of my socket outlet (those that are flushed with the wall) is loose. I tried to tighten back the screw but it is still loose. Any idea how to fix this?

Must have cracked...need a new housing base...or use cement nail and pray the socket won't fail until you move house😁

Now, in bedroom first, bcuz my toddler runs around, the tile is slippery when wet.

I'm also looking at slip treatment on kitchen floor. And maybe more non-slip stickies on top.

It's for safety.

I let my kids learned by allowing run and fall then cry father cry mother...no more running in the house thereafter. Yes, bad parenting...hard truth...i learned it the hard way myself... 😁

I reattached mine with silicon glue. I had a piece of furniture to press against it for a few hours while the silicon dries.

Bathroom tile grout lines are coming off. Intending to re-grout. Has anyone used any product which is lasting? Any recommendation?

Tried many times using those white cement or white clay but they drop out within a week of application despite letting it dry for 2 days.

The inner grout lines may be still damp when you apply anything. Keep it out of bound for a day or use hairdryer to heat up the lines before application with sealant property. Horme should have...
