A COUPLE who have just bought their first house transformed their kitchen with a bargain buy from B&M.
They used self-adhesive flooring planks to give the room an ultra-modern feel.
It originally had black tiling stuck on the floor.
Tiles can be difficult to remove, so the pair opted to use wood-style planks to cover it and posted the process on TikTok.
They bought grey strips with a “textured finish” and spent around £150 transforming the floor.
A pack of seven set them back £12 a pop.
