Hehehe...must take all yr pts into consideration liao...hehehehe...all these pointers sure help. IT ME!!!ME!!!!...i was the one who recommend Merryman Impress 21...me PM number to him liao lor.....

Hi Fannie, This is what i referred to earlier on...not sure if it clear... Not sure if there anyone got any solution to this as well? Me just went up to my unit...saw my tiler Ah How still working!!!Wanted to get him food n drinks...but he keep reject my offer.Chit chat with him abit before i left.....Must say his attitude is good!!!!

hehehee....just dunno how to reply ma... We have our own T-blog for pple to read....n also some unpleasant incident/mistake Uncle make(like Gaku...paisey...just site example).reader will judge themself.Picture dont lie.If not, they are also welcome to come to those house done by Uncle to take a look as well. There no need to highlight how good Ah Soon is, no need to highlight how many mistakes he made. One man meat is another man poison. It all for others to see.he may not be the best for everyone. N yes, i am Ah Soon fan..(i declare 1st la...if not wait they have to figure if i am or i am not...waste time la. )....I am not a relative of his...I admire his sincerety(but not idolize yet la)...I thank him for all the freebies and flexibility for making my 1st home come true(yes!!i Cheapo!!)..but i always abide the concious for those who PM me to find other ID/Contractor to compare and dun jump into the wagon of "Sooner" so fast. be it what...it a risk i choose to take(if all yr T_blog n pict is fake)...to take up Ah Soon and believe in him. I still do.I live by that.

okok...i go n dig the contact for u okie.....i remebr that a few of the t-blog using him as well...under the company Design21 or something like that de....hopefully can find....if not i will surf the T-Blog n direct u there okie...

Aiya...must let MsPiglet, Ivy,Familyof4 they all to appear in the "show" 1st ma...just kidding... I mean this is something u got to weight liao. I choose to take the risk and cos i am staying a few blocks from my new place...so i am comfy with my choice.It good to discuss with yr wifey on it so that if you really engage Uncle Soon...then be prepare on what to expect. if not...there still alot of good contractors ard...like Mr Yeak and Henry which i have met before as well. They are also v solid de. Suggest u go and look ard 1st...no need to commit yrself so fast if yr reno is not in the hurry.

Wah....got 'live"entertaintment bo jio me... I think everyone live by their choice.....be it good or bad.If u are really rich, have alot of $$...i think u can engage 1 whole line for ID ready to do your house. I always rember what Familyof4 said:"begger cant be chooser"...Ah Soon is the what some of us deem good for us...but not everyone. U like what u see...u engage...dont like...move on.There so many good contractors out there. I am sure MR Yeak is solid too....n there many more...so let move on....no need to agrue so much...agrue till the coe come home also like that. Some people will like his service and some who will never de la...that life. Count me in ba...i am also a renotalk addict...

hehehehe...that what Uncle ask me to write on the quotation lor....not sure if really want to spend the extra $$.....scare later VO alot ah... I have aldy added a few things liao....so not sure how it will work out also..

ok...but dont think mine is marble ley...he say is corian top...any idea what is that?me will ask if he can undermount for me with no extra charges...hehehehe..

hmm....can remeber where u saw the nice round mosaic?we went to the tiles shop at belastier...but cant find any ...or rather it old school.....some aldy dont carry those. pebble wash ah...but it just a v small area ley...maybe i go take oict for u to see...better.

me also want to know if possible?can PM me also...tot of undermount n also to see how much got to top up for the granite.

okok..hope i can summarise well. As we enegage a FSM...so the opening of the kitchen need to follow certain height(7ft). Uncle initally told me and the tilers that he can hack away the top of my kitchen opening...so that always to maintain the 7ft that i need. So when Ah How was asking me if i want to do a curb between the kitchen n living room, i thought it sort of a small curb/divider aka "men kan"(Guy77...help to correct this...my hanyu pingyin v lousy de. ).So we both agress the height to be 1 tiles diff. In the end, PD notice that the flooring not level last sat, then i realise that our understanding is not teh same. What Ah How meant was having diff in the level of flooring as some pple will like to have the high low effect when they like to splash water when washing kitchen...so water wont flow to the living room. My understanding is a small curb....Bt honestly...i think it mostly my fault as i din really clarify when Ah How was asking. Uncle also question Ah How and all of us was thinking how to beautify it. Uncle/Ah How mentioned that we can go find those round mosaic...however PD and I feel it too old school liao....whereas those square mosaic cant be used lor. So in the end...we sort of decided to have a black PVC to cover...also act as a divider lor... Story long bo?wahahahaha.

i will think that it will be challenging...cos the only possible way for them to do it was to hack the whole kitchen floor tiles...then relay to same height?...but ok la...PD and I are fine with it also....just that trying to find a way to beautify it.... N too be fair...it also the way i miscomm...not totally the tiler fault...so i also see no reasons to make them troublesome...but he was nice to also offer alot of alternative....attitiude wise...thumbs up!!!

Updates Not much of updates. Manage to meet Uncle on Sat to discuss on the electrical pts and also some of the things we need him to do up. The tilers gang is still doing up the tiling. Now left with 3 rooms and some small areas to be completed. Must say their work on the general is quite good(not yet check for hollow)...not much of complaints. They are taking their time to lay before moving to a unit in Redhill area(not sure whose unit isit?)..... I also realise that i make a mistake or rather miscomm to Ah Hock....(long story)...so currently the floor in the living room and kitchen is not level...the diff is about the height of 1 tiles.Ah Hock suggest that we get some old rounded mosaic to make a groove...in the end...we decide to use the PVC to do so...(sad...cos my mistake)..

Hi Ivy, Good to see the progres....hope to see the carpentry up soon also...

hehehehe...i cant remeber my oven liao....need to check with PD liao(wifey)... Hehehehe...told u that the Franke will be good deal to be tepmted liao...actually we are getting the oven is for just in case reason...hehehehehe...we dunno how to bake also...but in case we want to use it....we can easily have it...think must got learn to bake cake liao... PD also wanted a Simmons initally...however due to budget as well...we choose Sweet Dreams...which the eefect is quite similiar..

Got to agree with Pet on this.Cant imagine what they will do if you force them too hard also.This will also be a long and ugly fight as well. Just curious...is there anything yr agent or the seller agent is doing?Think they are pay in commission, they also got to play a part to help u to resolve this issue...that my tot.
