We are thinking to jus replacing the 4 pieces (if tiles can be found) then if suay suay crack again then maybe get a rug or something to cover up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your house looks good, no odd corners, pretty easy to do up a contemporary theme. Perhaps you can cover the cracked tiles with an overlay of laminate flooring, yes?

Am trying to get keys earlier as seller will give it to me earlier should they be able to shift earlier (which is very likely) so reno may even start before 31 May. That's nice. Your house looks good, no odd corners, pretty easy to do up a contemporary theme. Perhaps you can cover the cracked tiles with an overlay of laminate flooring, yes? yeah, overlay means whole house overlay which equals to $$$$$.... no budget. should change only that 4 pcs unless no choice. edmund will be cracking his brain for me on this. he understands and also encourage us to keep the flooring if we can save them. no point wasting good money, rite?
