DIY repair in treshka

This is what the corridor looks like after renovation.

We've made built-in wardrobes along the corridor that leads to the kitchen. Wallpaper - Aura Vintage Rose was glued to the walls. The floor in the corridor is paved with porcelain stoneware. Its color matches the wallpaper.

Considering the small size of the bathroom, we installed a shower cubicle. The bedside table against the wall was made by ourselves, thank God the hands are growing correctly. Marble top. The walls in the bathroom and toilet are tiled, made in Italy. On the floor is our Russian porcelain stoneware. Nothing worse than imported. I can compare with what lies in our corridor.

Shower column - Hansgrohe Croma 220.

Toilet and cistern - Jacob Delafton, Bidet shower - Hansgrohe Talis. Directly in front of you is the door behind which all the plumbing wiring is hidden.

This is how she looks when the doors are open. Now we think - it was in vain that we did not clean everything as it should be inside. They hoped for the workers. We'll have to somehow get it ourselves. By the way, there is an opportunity to make at least one shelf.

This is how our kitchen began to look. Please note that the walls, floor, ceiling and furniture are in light, warm colors.

The sink itself was purchased from IKEA. In size, everything fits fine. Naturally, the stove and oven were immediately installed. At the last moment we decided to install a dishwasher as well.

As you can see, there are other wallpapers here: GranDeco Hidden Richness. We laid a parquet board on the floor. Imported. The quality is excellent.

The next room is for children. The wallpaper is slightly different, but it is still warm beige color.

I'm showing our bedroom. The renovation has been completed here, but it still looks uncomfortable. I need furniture. We ordered, we are waiting.

The next two photos are of the balcony. Note that there is a different tile here. On the advice of friends, tiles with a rough surface were laid. In vain. Very inconvenient to wash.

That's all. Made according to our own design calculations. We like. It remains to acquire furniture.

Andrey spoke about his experience in arranging his own apartment. Further from his words.

My story began with the purchase of a three-room apartment. Before that, we lived in an ordinary kopeck piece, but the birth of a child prompted us to "expand" - we wanted to provide him with a separate full-fledged children's room.

After buying an apartment, there was not much money for repairs. But things were going well at work, so I was thinking of moving into the already equipped housing in a year. Soon, problems began at the firm, and salary delays became the norm. But he did not want to give up his promise to visit a new house.

So I decided to save some money that might have gone to pay the workers and did it myself. So, armed with the knowledge gained from the previous renovation and videos on YouTube, I began to equip the apartment.

I started with an electrician. This case turned out to be a fairly simple stage. But the plumbing was a little more difficult, so I had to resort to consulting a familiar master.

The most time-consuming process was the design of the ceiling - I decided to make it with built-in lighting. To avoid the appearance of cracks on the ceiling, fiberglass was glued. Working with him brought a lot of unpleasant moments - the material was very brittle and after it my hands were itching terribly.

I still had to entrust the tiling work to a specialist, did not dare to cut porcelain stoneware without special tools. The sum for the tiles and the work of the master turned out to be considerable, but the laying area was also impressive.

Then the walls were putty and ready for painting. After that there was a long choice of a suitable color. And having already lost hope, my wife and I still found a light gray-beige-blue satin that they both liked with a completely unpoetic name "x 486".

The painting brought many surprises, and unpleasant ones.Expensive Finnish paint behaved very capriciously, so it was not possible to avoid divorces. True, the domestic paint with which I covered the ceiling behaved even worse.

A domestic laminate was laid on the floor, which cost several times cheaper in comparison with foreign counterparts. I liked the color and texture very much, and the styling went like clockwork. I decided to lay out the headboard with the rest of the boards.

Initially, it was planned to install compartment doors in the dressing room, but they were simply draped with curtains as a temporary entrance. Moreover, this decision seemed to us so successful that we decided not to change it.
