Deciding to renovate or fix up your house can turn out to be a monumental and expensive task. If things go wrong, it’ll end up costing you more time, money and of course, your sanity. That’s why it’s probably best to hire reputable professionals to do the job, and to avoid cutting corners at all costs. Nevertheless, some people still insist on finding someone that can “do it cheaper”. Sometimes, they even choose to do it themselves, despite having no clue how to even build a gingerbread house.
If you need inspiration on why to not be like them, look no further than the ConstrucVdo IV Facebook Page. It’s a wall of hilarious, mind-boggling construction fails that we hope you'll never have to encounter in person. Bored Panda has picked the most painful posts from the page. You'll be forgiven for not being able to figure out what's going on in some of these bizarre pictures.

🤮. Half the counter and a proper toilet. Squat toilets quick me out. Especially this setup

I understand the temptation to do this. Worked on the pipes last night.

If you can't fix it with duct tape, you're not using enough duct tape.

These are ugly and look scary, but they are a solution, not a fail. If you only have room for a very steep staircase, building an alternate tread one like this allows you to walk up and down the stairs like normal (other than the same foot always goes on the same step.

Seems like it would've taken far less effort to just cut the door...(and prevent a tripping hazard)

Japanese style - separate bathing room and toilet room. The bathing room is “furo" (お風呂). The toilet room is “otearai" (お手洗い) or "toire" (トイレ).

I would not mind this actually. There has only been one instance in my life when I needed to utilize the toilet and bath at the same time (family norovirus disaster of 2012) 💀would be a time-saver

We had something similar when I was a kid. One room for a toilet & sink, another for the bathtub and yet another for a huge, walk-in shower. You could close off any one room individually or close off the entire space. It's a very practical way for a lot of people to share what's essentially one bathroom.

Separate WC and bath is so much better, but the WC needs a sink for hand washing. It is very common in France, but less so in Danmark.

I think I see the edge of a sink just inside the bath door, on the left.

Most houses less than fifteen years old in Australia have a separate toilet and bathroom. Nothing unusual here to me. Much better than having to wait to go to the loo when someone's having a bath or shower, or vice versa.

And also, nice to not have to brush your teeth next to the toilet bowl.

It used to be common in the UK to have separate toilet room and bath room - it meant other family members could take a bath without blocking use of the toilet.

Called compact design Off the kitchen, you will find a twin ...bathroom with a separate ..oh ...bath and loo? Reaching to turn the water on to the bath does require a longish arm though!

Older houses in San Francisco have a toilet room and separate bathing/washing room. It cuts down on needing many bathrooms.

Walk from toilet to bathroom and wash. Very, very common in older houses in NZ (my house as an example, built in 70's) Newer houses either have the toilet in the bathroom or a small basin in the room.

so when you forget to go to the bathroom before taking a shower, you have to hop out, open the door, walk to the other door, and drip water everywhere. mind as well just go in the tub

My temptation on so many of these blatantly horrible ones is to just write “seems fine” 😂. However, when I did that in the past I got downvoted, even on ones that my sarcasm seemed obvious! 🫠

Oh, you tempted me to downvote your comment, just to be a wise-@ss! I absolutely know the feeling of sarcasm not being "gotten".

So many of these are obvious works in progress, temporary stabilizing repairs, or "make the best of it" compromises. They're interesting, but very few qualify as "fails". Many if not most are the opposite - creative solutions to problems that cropped up. Even the ones that seem stupid make me think "why?", not "dumb".
