Gracemagg 0 Report post Posted August 18, 2013 Some progress after a week of renovation (as of 17 August):Living room - False ceiling and partition done. Next up, our craftstone wall *excited* Corridor - false ceiling also done. Kitchen - Not sure if I'm correct, but this should be the cement skirting for my kitchen cabinets? Anyway, we like how Mr K matched the grout of the cement skirting with the floor tiles. Service Yard - Preparing to overlay tiles for our dirty washing area Common & Master Bedroom Toilet - Overlaying of tiles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway, we like how Mr K matched the grout of the cement skirting with the floor tiles. This is the elevated base for your bottom kitchen cabinets. You either have a choice to suspend the cabinets, or to do it this way if you want the thing to sit on the floor. The base allows you to wash the floor without it wetting the wooden cabinets.
