wah saliva come out oredi, so nice! kopi, where u get this lobang?

What a big transformation you've got over there! like your MBR Toilet, so classy. got free piped in music and svc staff giving out hand towels?

Can i know where u got your furry pillowcase, so nice and cute

I like your lights which creates a very romantic ambience, no before reno pics for us to compare the difference?

Marcus, peifu peifu u, for doing and co-ordinating yourself, can save money and very hands-on at the same time. so u havent go 2nd appt huh?

Your reno not ugly leh, its pretty! i like the living room and Wardrobe 3Ds, so sad to hear that HDB never approved the hacking....

walau your seller lie to u huh, then poof there goes your dream kitchen lor..okie nvm, i can help u on the laminate question, initally i also got Pergo laminate, family range, initially we took care of the floor like mad, like moving the dinning chair gently over the surface. using only magic-clean friendly dry tissues. And found a magic brand called Sofix for Laminate floors and another brand i cannot rem the name, using that type of cleaner will maintain and keep your laminate floor sparkling and nice.

Your Invisble grille is really nice! that's the 1st time i've saw! is that a new technology? only have white colour huh?

Your house have a very Balinese resort theme feel! in your MBR, i think the lamp should be moved closer to the wall on the left hand side. maybe use a longer extension cord to shift the fan to more in front.

what the?! they are putting you on a spot by doing that, you good to them they r also not good to you, then dun care leh, just dun extend for you, wait u no place to stay then how? aiyo, u can tell the HDB officer right?

yup yup, i agree with the other forummers who responded to you. take the floor plan, have a very rough idea of what you are going to do or hack and the budget, other things the ID will give you ideas and suggestions. plan to have at least a few quotations to compare on the pricing, after that to choose the "one" that u feel most comfortable with and the most reasonable quote lor and to bring to the house for exact on-site measurements to determine on the price

oh wow your flooring really looked like laminate to me, haha. anyway i love your main living room layout, and your bedside lamp is so cute! heard from a friend that furniture from Picket and Rail is very durable and lasting and good quality. how did you get the lobang to buy furniture from indo? u really paid a very good price for that. i only know that Thomson Plaza there has 1 shop that is selling country furniture, looks very very nice, but very ex for the pocket. Maybe you can take a look there.

yeah man, its like that! did you take a bank loan or a friendly loan by your parents? shopping for furniture is always very exciting, esp looking for sofa, mattrees, coffee table, wardrobe, study table etc etc. you have any theme in mind?

sure, will PM you too.

sure no problem, will PM u

okay, no pro, have PM u liao

yeah i look at the pics i like, but then, $25k for reno is very diff nowadays, somemore include appliances & funiture, nope...dun tink so. for furniture i teach u, buy sat Straits Times newspaper go to those PLAYfair road warehouse sales, can save a lot of money....but then bear in mind that the furniture is only very very basic, nothing fanciful at all. electrical appliances can buy at sale times too, where you can get NTUC Vouchers or TAKA vouchers when u buy LCD Tv

not silly q leh. dat time i only deciding between cooker hood and hob. it all depends on your cooking pattern. do you cook heavy duty? or light cooker? Asian cooking? 2 or 3 burners? normally my advise to you, better dun take the so called 'freebies' in the reno package! becoz most of the time u yourself the dear consumer will be paying for it! i did went to several ID firms last time, all promising 'freebies' after that i found that in the reno quotes most prices are jacked up....

aiyo no nid to learn de becoz i also only know a little bit only. got expert FOC tips, haha. what happen 2 ur hse?

oh sorrie my bad, wanna faint phengz, so ex!? no discounts?

nice pics beany! so have you moved your stuff to stay there oredi?

i tink i know why, becoz IKEA tampines more popular so stocks run out faster lor, faster kopi feedback to their cust svc, say we want a telephone update furniture svc. like we call their hotline to check on stock can oredi, no need for us to run like mad like dat

i also got lack shelve leh mine is white colour, your one leh? ur lack shelves put where one? my one is 110cm. urs?
