Hi
Just thought i'd post a few pics of what my kitchen looked like before and after.
The first few pics are of what it originally looked like, small, dark and ugly. The person who put this kitchen in put tiles on the worktop
Then I started to take the old tiles off
Woops
Then we took down a partition wall to make it an open dining room/Kitchen
Old kitchen mainly out
New kitchen going in
New plumbing (this time under the sink)
Final pic, as you can see we removed that massive oven and put the fridge freezer in its place to free up space in the dining room.
This was all done on a tight budget over 2 weeks

Cheers mate, I think the wall tiles are approx 15cm by 15cm I also put a border on aswell.
The floor tiles were a bargain from B&Q they are around 30cm by 30cm and cost £4.98 for a box of ten

nothing wrong with those floor tiles, I've used those efore from there but they were about £9.99 a pack, look great down with the gray grout.
we're waiting on some 400x400 floor tiles from a posh tile shop in nottm, should be in from spain on the 1st oct. not bad to say we ordered them on the 18th Aug and they said they'd be delivered in 10 days. lol. a bit more than £5 a box though
