we really need to tear everything out and start again, from cupboards to tiling, the lot.
I'm on a very limited budget - I could probably chuck another four grand on my credit card but not much more. Do you guys have any ideas how I can do this?
You don't need much in the way of tools to make your own cabinets out of plywood. Worktop can be 18mm marine ply, sanded and sealed. "Get Hands Dirty" on YouTube has some relevant videos.
You can get an Acrylic splashback from about £35/sq.m inc vat at 3mm thick, add cutouts for sockets about £20-30 depending how many you want (£15 of that would be the setup). Ceramic tiles would cost you about £40/sq.m depending on complexity, tile size, surface condition.

Morning kids. I got great advice on how to sort out my shower when I posted here last, so I'm hoping to get the same sort of advice for my kitchen.
I moved in a year ago and the place had clearly been let out to uncaring tenants for many years - caked in grease, hadn't been updated since the 80s, rat shit everywhere. Anyway we cleaned it up and got it functional but we really need to tear everything out and start again, from cupboards to tiling, the lot.
