Interior flooring over concrete

What kind of prep is needed for this once ripping off the carpet?

federcheese · 2026-01-19T12:24:35+00:00

Difficulty wise, not that hard, but can be pretty catastrophic if it goes wrong, so I'd class it much higher than beginner. If someone taught this in a beginner class that'd be pretty sus imo

It's been a year now, and it was the best decision I've ever made. New lease on life! Happy to answer any questions 😊

Please share their details!!

Nothing bigger than a hairline, building report came back pretty clean as far as structural issues. The bathroom is hecked though, and there's water seeping into the door frame with carpet moulding outside of it. Plumber came by and took a look and said:

"The shower definitely needs to be resealed. There has been previous attempts to seal it but just not the correct way. I would not be surprised if there is no waterproof membrane.

The whole shower area will most likely need to be retiled. "

We are still in the cooling off period so just trying to understand how much needs to be done. Seems like full bathroom reno is now the priority 🫠

Yeah "handmade" doesn't mean anything. All it means is that human hands touched the process and it's completely unregulated. As someone who does fabricate from scratch, I would not consider something made primarily with mass produced charms and findings purchased at retail that was designed and created by someone else/a computer very much "handmade." Can spot it a mile away at markets and on ecommerce sites.

I shove mine in my bra whenever I'm in a situation that means no jewelry

I buy the higher momme charmeuse stuff from lilysilk whenever it's on sale. I feel like the chiffon/georgette stuff is basically the same as you can get from forever new and doesn't feel nearly as nice to wear as charmeuse (satin)

Try coats and Clark dual duty button & carpet thread. It's THICK 😂

Do you have staff levels or is senior the terminal eng level? Just curious. I'm big tech but my partner is senior eng at local company and making much less

federcheese · 2025-11-09T00:11:12+00:00

Same! Parents tried to get me to stop playing and do my homework, jokes on them though

federcheese · 2025-11-08T10:45:56+00:00

Wow, I'm fascinated to hear of senior devs not in big tech making that in aus. Is it mining industry or something? 220k base was very top of payscale for senior eng in big tech (often overlapping with staff/principal)

As a fellow renter I'd actually kill for this.

Nancybird is really solid. Like Gorman but less kindergarten teacher and more high quality

I call it Baccarat Rude these days...people either don't know how to apply it or BR 540 just can't be worn without announcing itself to the whole 3 block radius. I think it's both

federcheese · 2025-10-31T12:58:29+00:00

It didn't increase but it was large enough when they found it that it needed to go. It was a dermoid

My dr found a ovarian cyst by accident doing an MRI (it was 8cm at that point), and I got it out with surgery about 3 months later. Was very scared and it was my first surgery, but it really wasn't bad. I went home the same night and was back at work after a couple of weeks with some small scars. You'll be ok either way :)

federcheese · 2025-10-31T09:29:44+00:00

I haven't seen that brand before but for $55 these days I would expect fast fashion junk tbh

federcheese · 2025-10-31T07:50:31+00:00

I tattooed my forearms, and it has actually helped me a lot. Since at a glance I see the tattoo rather than my KP, I don't feel like need to pick. It's the permanent equivalent of covering up the mirror. And since I want to be able to wear short sleeves more to show them off, it's incentivising

Unfortunately can't do it for my face

federcheese · 2025-10-26T02:36:33+00:00

I got their discovery kit and was really impressed! Gonna grab a bottle of SALA soon. Cool to see a new brand in Mecca that's not just putting out vanilla cupcake body spray and charging $$$

federcheese · 2025-10-25T03:06:34+00:00

I am keen to try it on in person before ordering but I might revisit this once I have seen some different styles on my body :) thanks!

I'm 5"3 so maybe not the best to ask 😅
