The contractor who renovated my house at Selangor is really bad with his job. Seriously.
I don't stay here just yet, but I'm fixing al the errors that exists in this house for the mean time before I move here for college.

Tiles just fell off suddenly the kitchen. Even the staircase tiles at the base of the handrail just came off today when I wiped the dust off.
The fallen tiles are salvaged and I hope to stick it back ASAP. What is possible to be used to attach it back? Best solution is of course an adhesive that is strong and long-lasting.

The staircase's handrail has a poor base attachment to the stairs itself. It looks and feels like it could come off anytime. What would you recommend to reinforce it?

The staircase is actually wrapped (I don't know much about this but it's firstly open air, then wrapped and now a store room exists beneath it) and the handwork is bad. Edges are jagged, whole thing is black and it can really cause some problems with the steps especially since I'm not really familiar with it. Shadows are camoflaged with the colour of the staircase.
Are there any coloured stickers or some sort that I can stick across the end of each step to pass the warning that there is a step? Best is that it doesn't come off at the sides and also washable when mopped.

badluck 4 u..

Sack the contractor...

For tiles, u can use MS-1 polymer, a polymer glue which adhere to anything. Expensive but very lasting. I used it to stick stones outside my car porch. Rain or shine, the stones are still there. Best of all, can DIY. Don't need pesky contractors. Or hire 2 Indon workers to help u. Pay around RM 30-40 per day. Must supervise personally.

For staircase balustrade, u can use adhesive or nails.

Post some pics so people can help u.

The contractor firstly finished the job and it looks okay... then tiles start to fall off.
Can I get these things from Ace?
The staircase really wtf one...

Also, with a missing rubber legging at the table?
It's a second hand table and there's a missing rubber leg.

Does the wall and pillars has crack on it? If it doesn't then i think you should be thankful bcos nowadays workmanships are way below par. Very very poor. I think those are just minor problems. Why not try some DIY methods to fix them instead?

Till now... no...
DIY method would really be recommended.
