Professionals had build up the kitchen, which unfortunately was not resisting to water and fat drops.

I found a new way to measure the tiles to cut: thanks to the internet! 🙂

Unfortunately, the professionals didn’t make a good job with the electrical connection…

Now the weak wall was stable again:

Needing a distance holder for the tile thickness:
