I don't know which is better but it seems that most IDs use Supreme. btw, my contractor gave me power dekor laminate flooring.

I happen to have the half wall + glass combi...haha havent update my t-blog since dec...

I agree but putting the dining table in the living room will be abit cram. How about building a wall or glass partition to seperate the current kitchen into 2 portion?

Remember to check with your contractor on the payment terms. My contractor didn't ask for any payment at the start of the reno. He said that in recent years, alot of contractors disappear after collecting the initial payment. So he will only collect $$$ from me based on the progress of the reno. I just make the 1st payment this week which is already the 3rd week of my reno. The amount is slightly less than half of the estimated total cost.

New updates Cover & concealment - The aircon bracket is really disgusting, the wooden board is rotten and has lots of holes. yucks Half-height wall at kitchen - Notice the groove for inserting the tempered glass panel??? Close-up view of wall. There is a strip of PVC lining the top and side edges of the wall. Contractor says that with this PVC lining, wall won't chip-off so easily if u accidentally hit the edges. MBR extension completed Yesterday, we went to select our toilet bowl & basin. Not many choices available so we just select something simple and not too expensive. Anybody heard the brand 'Baron' before...is it good???

The hacking works shd be completed by now rite. What are the works u intend to do? Any 3D drawings to look at???

u may want to check out series 7 also. Price slightly higher, comes with content library. Almost the same as series 6. I will re-visit some of the blogs to check out the details...didnt really pay attention to the lightings then

Series 6, 40" - $1950 nett forgo free gifts. Price can be reduced furthur but I didn't bargain since they gave me a good discount for the fridge.

Bought the following items during my weekend shopping spree. Went to the highly aclaimed Poh Joo on sat to source for cooker hob and hood. The choice is between Hobs and Cuizino as both are within my budget but I decide to go for the latter because of its telescopic retractable hood. When not in use, the hood is flush with the upper cabinet...so I won't knock my head! Sunday afternoon was spent at katong mall checking out the price for samsung LCD. The shop assistant tried to promote sharp and hitachi LCD TV to us and even did some demo to show us the difference between 50Mhz & 100 Mhz, hard & soft panels etc... But frankly, I really can't tell the difference so we made our decision based on something we can 'see'... final choice still goes to samsung for its aesthetics Fridge and washing machine are much easier - Sharp fridge for aesthetical reasons again and LG wm because it is cheap...heehee Total damage - almost 3.7K. Really siong on my pocket especially when I count the $$$ I have spent since sigining the OTP Anyway, glad to have settle some of those 'must have' items. We will shop for lightings this sat...have slight idea what kind of lightings we want but not sure about the prices. Worry that we will get 'chop' by the shops because we don't know the market rate and we are 'thin skin' types who can't bargain well.

Initially, I thou the window have to be either infront or behind the railing because I never expect that it can be removed. I was very surprise and glad when I found that they have been removed Hope to see your 3D drawings and reno progress soon!!!

The pipe will be covered by false ceiling in my living room and L-box in the dining to save abit of cost.

Thanks for your suggestion. I did consider this idea before but decide against it because it involve too much hacking and reconstructing of walls. Then my SCV cable, wires etc will all need to be extended or re-wire. Most importantly, we still prefer to have 3 'full size' bedrooms.

Oh, my contractor just saw off the metal railing at the balcony window! Look so much nicer without it. BTW, this how it looks after sealing up the vents above the doors. Hi pinkpetter, notice the gas pipe above the doors?

Yup, old unit really have alot to cover and conceal...there is a gas pipe running above my storeroom, bedroom and MBR doors. Since my kitchen is situated away from the main door, the pipe has to travel a long way We like the new windows very much ...especially the balcony portion. Havent think of how to utilize that small area.
