wish I had a home

Looks nice. I went with granite countertops, white cabinets with stainless handles and a brown laminate floor. Its a fake wood floor but its water resistant and looks real. I did white subway tiles for a backsplash. Im at work but I probably have a pic if youre curious

>>16711770
10/10 would get drunk and fall sleep on them

Little too much for me. Prefer a simple white with a little flecking in it.

Thanks anon, her family came to the United States from Colombia and were in the marble and granite business so she is absolutely based when it comes to this stuff.

>>16711770
Looks FUCKING SWEET bro . WIsh I had a sledgehammer so I can smash it and then rape ur wife with the handle .

>>16711898
Is your pecker broken?

>>16711823
Laminate has come a long way but I went with porcelin.

>>16711898
If I was not home to personally put the bullet in your center mass I have 2 big German Shepherds that make fed ex drivers leave my shit on the driveway :)

>>16711934
I did quite a bit of tile, but I have an open plan and I couldnt find a good place to transition from tile to carpet. I couldnt afford to tile the whole area.

>>16711942
Got any pics of the dogs?

>>16711942
I bet they fuck your wife more than you do. A couple bullets between their eyes solves that problem.

>>16711960

>>16711956
Whole house tile upgrade fucking hurt my wallet not gonna lie. Yolod it

>>16712020
Good looking dogs

>>16711942

>tfw memed OP out of selecting superior laminate

>>16711770

>>16711929
BTFO

>>16712020
Got any pics of the wife?

>>16712520
Will be similar to picrel - difference being all our cabinet pulls and faucet etc will be matte black

>>16712528
I don't post pictures of my wife on 4chan thanks though.

>>16712760
Parents did that. It looks cool. They have a tall part going behind the hood. The installers werent very happy about it though

>>16712794
Smart man.

>>16712836
Yea luckily our fabricators and installers used to work for her father so we are getting the family discount on the labor.

>>16712836
Yea one nice benefit of the slab backsplash is that there are no grout lines to get dirty from splashes of tomato sauce or chili etc. Quartz is 0 maintenance and second hardest stone behind diamond. You don’t have to seal it like you do granite and marble

>>16712794
What about some of her panties?

>>16712020
Good bois

>>16711770
How much does this cost?

Id love to do my kitchen but plan on moving within the next few years and I dont want to go through the expense to then sell the place.

>>16713361
The 2 slabs came to $7100 after taxes and that was a wholesale price because of her connections. Colombian women are very jewish negotiators ao she beat the guy down to like 6700$. Fabrication and install is gonna run 28$ a square foot and we have 140ish square feet of stone so probably around 3-3.5k to install. Again, this pricing is friends and family rates. I normally handle all our business decisions but I have never built a home before and this is her area of expertise so I am letting her drive the bus. That said retail on this job would probably be around 15k

>>16711942
sounds pretty nice OP, I'm jealous

wish I could fuck your german shepherds

>>16712084
sounds pretty based ngl

>>16713944
I genersl contracted my house 3 years ago. If you got any questions, Ill answer

>>16714199
I know I hot raped at 31k for whole house porcelain tile - but how bad??

>>16711770
post wife

>>16714379
I probably have 6k in tile for 500 sq ft installed and a tub tile platform and tile around the showers

I saw a friend had SS for the hood and stove backsplash. I thought that was great, made cleanup a breeze. I like the granite, but SS just makes more sense if ya cook a lot.

>>16714400
Here is a tub and some tile. Hate that cheap tub, but the tile looks good and its just box store stuff

>>16714425
Forgot pic

>>16711872
what color are her nipples dont fucking lie

>>16711770
nice, here's mine that's getting installed this week

>>16711807
>beautiful laminate
no such thing, anon

>>16711770
really nice color, but not fond of the backsplash being the same as the countertop. a 3-5" lip works well, the whole wall does not.

>>16714428
what marriott conference room did you steal that painting from?

>>16715028
Light brown

>>16715053
Those are floor tiles? If so they look very similar to what we picked

>>16711770
where we live, the stone guys call the fabricated shit “quartz” and the natural stone “quartzite”….OPs looks like natural stone, not rock dust held together with glue, so which is it?

looks pretty nice OP, I'm jealous

wish I had a countertop

>>16711770
That's not a Quartz crystal!
Could be some weird quartzite maybe, but looks more like a marble.
so, what is it?

>>16712760
>>>16712520
>Will be similar to picrel - difference being all our cabinet pulls and faucet etc will be matte black
Make sure the thickness is substantial. Quartz is a good call, the most durable. I like the amount of swirly black in your sample.
I would like to know if you are shooting yourself to be stuck to gray theme throughout your home though. There's little room to get any beige tones to be matchy matchy in adjoining rooms. Gray is kind of a statement that isn't actually that neutral. Natural stone can incorporate a lot more color than that.

>>16715196
>what marriott conference room did you steal that painting from?
LOL, I was thinking something similar. Get some real bathroom art, anon. That's a mold magnet too.

“The biggest difference between quartz and quartzite is that quartz is a man-made material, while quartzite is a natural stone. ... A quartz countertop is engineered with the same quartz crystals found in quartzite, but a man-made process binds the crystal with resins, pigments, and other materials such as bits of glass.“

looks pretty nice OP, I'm jealous

wish I had a dick

>>16711770
Nice food
Looks tasty

>>16716378
Its quartzite - natural. This one was imported from Brazil

Imagine getting excited over some countertops. Peak consumerism.

>>16716488
What?
No!
Quartz is a mineral, SiO2, and Quartzite is a stone that's made from mostly Quartz (i.e. Sandstone) but has been through some metamorphosis.

>>16713944
sweet deal. engineered stone is superior to natural stone IF you are happy with the design and can find one you like because it is tighter than marble so you dont have to worry about spills as much but dont just let wine chill on it like a retard no matter people tell you some things leave a tint coloration on the stone thats difficult to get off with just water . also find out the manufacture and ask the installers/owners what they recommend to clean and eventually re sealing the stone if need be, the stuff on the shelves at the store could leave an ugly film if you dont use the right stuff

>>16717348
Thanks for the advice brother, I will post pics in about 8 months when it is all done

>>16712760
I like this style. Looks elegant.

>>16716640
Shouldn't you be in a fast food thread?

>>16715891
I'm dissappointed in you anon

>>16719859
Why?

>>16719716
Yea same, I never even knew it was a thing until she showed me

>>16711770
looks pretty nice OP, I'm jealous

>>16711942
Why do fed ex drivers have your shit and why are they leaving it on your driveway

>>16721216
Amazon orders. The dogs sound very scary when they are basically throwing themselves against the windows and barking. My house is niggerproof

>>16711770
looks pretty nice op, i'm jealous

wish i had some black hardware if you know what I mean

>>16721222
Lol breh.....

>>16721199
Man your comment makes me kinda sad. Life is hard but you gotta wake up angry about it and do something

>>16721221
I openly walk into people's yards that have dogs waiting for them to bite me while I deliver their shit. It's open season on them when that happens, but most of the time they just start licking me and want to be loved. I always make sure the ones that treat me well get the best dog treats. Usually had jerky on me while the lessers got milkbone. It's a mutual respect thing I had with people's dogs. Only 2 ever bit me and the owners got a visit from the Sheriff and they had to drive an hour to the warehouse to pick up their orders from then on. Don't fuck with the people that handle your packages. If your dog is an asshole and you order something, you pay close attention when that shit is out for delivery and keep them locked up. This is your obligation as the owner by inviting me to your house to deliver your shit. Scanners can double as clubs when necessary.
One of the 2 that bit me was a shepherd. I still think they're still based.
