  1. Hi legalbandit, Not much ppl update here anymore.
  2. Anyway so funny 2 that he give "owner run away". ppl can run away but house cant run.
  3. i think some problem with the company itself in this case. this is the 2nd case that happen. It just the case where all reno ID "teach" each other how to cheat on ppl. Guess u guys can go report police first. It would be better if you guys can report together so that the case can be a case of cheating. Anyway, just an updates for Roger LIM case. He had been caught by ther police and the court and sentenced him 2 years in JAIL. Anyone else which have a case with Roger Lim can contact me, so that can report a civil case together.
  4. hmm . . . . this weekend i go take picture of it and post here bah.
  5. i did try the KBY, i think suppose not toxic if not those doing praying will have problem liao. maybe is the same reason as the baby powder mentioned by other, they don like strong power smell as ant using smell sense to move around. Got some (kill 50 plus plus ants found at my house, and there is no food in the house, still doing reno) so I tried burning last week, so far no ant found inside my house, but saw 1 or 2 outside my main door. Still trying to trace where they come from.
  6. vacum all ^_^ Yah, for aircon i think so. because, if main not switch off and disconnected, a small amt of electric still need to allow u to for remote to work right? but your type not sure work a not, new home is a main one outside MBR, while older building do not have that and it using the normal power socket.
  7. a bit hard leh. no kill yet u don want them to be present? it become chicken and egg issue liao. Read http://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?sh...t=0&start=0. can try this KAM BONG YAN, but not sure what religion u r, not sure u ok to burn this a not. http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/ma...hemical/kb1.jpg http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/ma...hemical/kb2.jpg
  8. well i also recently just brought bean bag too (01 Mar 09). i got mine at Kendo Lifestyle @ $179 for 2 :)
  9. I using it. the purple, the peach and sky blue one. hard to compare if it is brighter, but it look bright enough for us. i tried to take a photo b4 but cannot see well.
  10. oh yah, take note of the payment mode and %. If you feel something not right, can always post first b4 you engage the company so that you can aware of a common practice so that you might want to request the company to change thet contract b4 you sign the dotted line. oh yah didnt post what u asked, I hear toilet wll be another high cost if you going to change everything.
  11. Actually for S&C is a neighbour shop, like other neighbour furniture, so not much display will be available. But they do provide pictures of what they can supply. Pricing wise i'm not to sure, as that day i only drop in 2 see see look look. But the owner/saleman there are friendly, they also tell us, if wan 2 see new design, apr onwards will be a good time.
  12. hard to tell . . . Anyway welcome. Think it will be better to create a t-blog and post there. more ppl will read there and able to comment/advice for y ou. Since u already making your house so nice leh, i can only help u think some missing items u might wan to include. * change of 03 x bedroom doors. (what type of door) * Install of 01 x kitchen door (some ppl don wan door, but some ppl one) * Haulage Service to HDB (paid by yourself, it will be bill to you by hdb) * buy sand etc (should be included in masonry work as part of "to supply", got to ask them, if not later they said not include and want to you to pay further) Anyway, most of the work they wll sub-con to others, so if u want to reduce the amt, then got to find the sub-con yourself. Items such as mirrors, doors is posible to find cheaper one. also u got a lot of carpentry works, u might want to consider to buy off the rack instead asking them to build a fixture. in case next time you want to change but cant.
  13. base on what she said, she "prefer" and is it not "cannot". Also don things that she mentioned not to put is quite common sense. u wouldnt put anything u respect under the bed right?
  14. i'm @ 5 floor. If u go that block that floor easy locate which one, whole floor i think only got 2 chinese.
  15. hi welcome 2 YS. hee but i also havent move in too. Mi @ blk 183.
  16. For all info, I was told that G-Plan already know that Roger Lim (already got caught) is a problematic person since Jul 2008, however the company still allow him to take in new project do to the reno work . . . I still waiting for police to update me the status of outcome of the court.
  17. oops . . . read wrongly forgot ft & meter. I think i search b4 rewired for whole house about 2-3k max. but got to see your breakdown easier to see if it is ex a not. And also depend on your existing is conceal or not. One way to cut a lot of costs will be running on wireless instead of wire as they quote a lot for that. last time i ask is about 100++ per point.
  18. your wire must be made of GOLD. got to check 16k or 24k? anyway your house a bit very big 1200 sqft? or 120 sqft? if 1200 sqft, then 9k plus should be ok lah.
  19. just some updates -> check your toliet ceiling & MBR windows ceiling. i found water leakage @ @ both side. For MBR windows ceiling i reported to HDB officer, after he come and inspect and told us due to outside wall got some problem. it appear some a number of ppl reported. Town council had been informed to refict the problem.
  20. at last found the 3M stainless steel cleaner @ $10.15 @ homely hardware. :)
  21. spam spam here. it tirig things to do reno, but anything related to $$$ need to be careful. a lot of cheater out there like to cheat first timer like us. A lesson learnt for me, less deposit, i only paid them when they finish what they had supposed to do, or what they suppose to buy. No pay in advance to allow them to buy material etc, if they don even have $$$ 2 buy the material, how they going to run their business . . . .
  22. i got a daikin sys 4 (non-inventer) 2.75k
  23. the wind can consider ok only. if wan big wind and easy cleaning standing fan is still the best ^_^ only benfit of tower is look nice.
