Hi Everyone, I took a grant from the govt a few years ago and is in the midst of serving my 5 years of grant liability. I am wondering if i am able to apply for a new BTO flat even if i am in the midst of serving my liability period. Reason is that new BTO takes time and i want to downgrade. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks

anyone has any lobang for part time maid services rate with $10/hr and below for weekends?

Well, i wish i have read more and gotten Angeline and Dave, unfortunately i gotten other ID from there and i dont think she is as competent.

Yup we must pay for lift upgrading

Did the person say when is the last day they will pitch their sales @ the warehouse? so its still till 5.30 everyday?

Alrighty thanks...

I have heard of this "shop" in Jalan Besar which sells toilet accessories and etc for quite a cheap price. Its near a bean curd stall... Anyone has the address of this particular shop?? Can Share share? thanks..

I used to have quite a sever eczema on my face as well. I tried alot of western medication but they only give advices on watching the type of food u eat and etc. afterwhich they will give u steroids to apply on ur face, i didnt use it as it will only thin the skin we have. Eventually i went to a TCM @ queensway area.. there is this ABC market nearby its quite famous.. can ask the elders... they should know where is it. i drank some bitter medicine for 3-8 mths and i am completely healed. Good luck..

Hi Kitchen MAtters.. No worries... i have decided to get FD 61.1 ICE. DO you have a quote to give me? I am getting quote about $799. My oven is inside a cabinet just beside a fridge.. is it not advisable even if there is a wooden partition between them?? And thanks again for the help.

i am currently engaging intra design as well.. so far so good.. i haven seen the end product but the renovation has been going on smoothly except for some minor misunderstandings.. even if u have a budget just be upfront and tell them..i am sure they can work something out.

Hi Kitchen Matters, Thanks for the great help and really informative write up. i will need the oven by the early next month. I know its abit rush but do u happen to have any pictures of TEP830 Glass hob and any price to quote? For oven wise i think i will still get FD61 cos it looks better.. Wonder if u have any price to quote or any stocks there?

hI Kitchen matters, I am looking for Ariston FD61.1ICE model. How is it compared to FZ62C Catalytic oven? I am just a amateur cook. And if possible if u have DZG 830 Signature for hobs. Thanks for the help

Yeah thanks... i went there on Sat nite.. and the brands / models i am looking for are all out.. they say that the earliest could only be delivered in March.... So i am wondering if there are any other shops around that i can buy those 2 brands.. Thanks for your help Vivien..=)

I am Trying to buy Ariston and Indesit ovens but i went to alot of shops and they said that shipment needs to wait till Feb or March.. Does anyone else know where to get hold of Ovens for those 2 brands? Suggestions plss?

Hi guys.. i wanna ask if anyone bought those metal swing and place it in ur EMs? its those old kinds where there are 2 seats opposite each other and it sway from side to side.... usually seen in landed houses.. If you guys have any or know how to get it.. can pm me thanks in advance

try getting a contractor to do it.. PM me if you need contacts.. my window is alu - bronze for whole EM windows (sliding) + grills for whole house is abt $4.6k there is no harm of getting more quotes from more contractors.

While hunting for a air con contractor she mentioned to me that HDB doesnt allow 2 compressors to be installed in certain EMs. what i did was sending my floorplan and air con positions to the contractor and they will advise to see how many compressors needed for your house. it largely depends on how much energy/ electricity has been channelled to your area.

wow this is really good. RHB offers me 3% fixed rate.... hmmmmm i think i might give posb a call soon. thanks. I just got my ID from INTRA design.. i tried calling contractors but i decide against having ah soon or yeak cos i wanted to see some prospective designs and wanted the ID to handle all the logistic stuff for me. Nevertheless the best starting point are the books, websites and etc.. to know what you want (theme ) for your house is most important. then u can work around ur selected theme for the house. The problem for me now is tile selection... i didnt know what tiles to choose... many many patterns.. but there is only so much i can choose.

Hello mslt, Can disclose which type of loan are u applying? is it reno loan ? and which bank did u apply the loan from. . so far from my research RHB seems to be offering the lowest rate in the market.

i met my ID over the weekend and she recommend me matt ones instead of glossy ones.... but it seems those old school parquet (glossy versions) seems to have the kind of more lasting feel...

hmmm.. thanks for the advice Chronograph. for my parquet.. its considered as staining of the parquet to walnet colour only.. i dont think its varnish. I was quite surprised to see a $6k increase in my quotation though.. but thanks for the clarification. Initially i wanted to do a laminate glass trellis for my balcony (garden feel) , but after many consultations it seems that HDB wont allow. Wonder if any one did it for their home? Does any ppl with balcony has a different setting than ceremic roofing awning.

Hi Guys, I would like to ask for the normal cost of awning, false ceiling below awning, grilling up of the whole house (EM), staining of the parquet for staircase and 3 bedrooms. My ID quoted me approx $6k for the construction of the above and is wondering that its kinda steep .. does anyone has a breakdown for the above items? Thanks in advance for any replies..
