It will be very costly to do that wall alone only. U willing to pay for the price of it?

Me still working...

Welcome to RT!!

Must be really hard work cleaning the poles.

Welcome to RT. From the floor plan, does it mean all the walls are beam that can't be hacked? If that's really the case, I'm wonder whether hacking of store room, doing a WIW and island, open concept kitchen will u have a problem in applying the permit not?

Fully agree. There is an indemnity form that the house owner can sign upon if they want to do it. The only question is, how many willing to sign. Of course if Singapore still in wooden huts, even we will start to migrate elsewhere already Anyway go back to the main topic, waiting for more pics of the reno progress and if can...the wedding photos too

Finally saw your completed works. Nice

The issue is when there is crack, who should repair for it? The neighbour doing the renovation above or the owners themselves?Becos, there are some owners purposely wait till there is renovation, be it above or beside to save them the money. So as not to get into such matter also, HDB laid out the rules and regulations for that. As for spalling concrete, no choice, if that happen, owner are to get their own contractor to do so, if we all go back to wooden huts, then there is no place for FT already(just joking).

After this reno, u will be more experience and knowledgeable.

The wall is still wet internally when the painter paint it over, when the water dry, it will try to vapour and try to escape. But too bad, that area is the weakest point that why bubbles will form. The reason for that stain mark occurs were the water drainage piping was chocked. So condensation water unable to flow to the drainage, it will back flow and drip from the bottom of the unit itself. Just need to sealer, plaster and paint back will do. Let it dry first before u on the air-con again.

Its depend on how long the cabinet going to be. For more secure and long lasting wise, a base is needed. But still can do as suspended and the base is more at the back rather than the standard cement base. Suspended Kitchen

Too busy sorry sorry. Reason for plastering not allowed is due to safety issues. As after plastering dried up, over the times due to expansion and contraction, vibration, etc...the harden plaster will not stick to the ceiling(especially the top is having water leakage), if your top is doing reno, the whole piece, if not small pieces will drop down. Broken plaster can be as thick and sharp as glass. It under owner responsibilities if anything unfortunate happened. HDB, ID/contractor will not be responsible. So doing it will be at your own risk.

Those are screws to hold the two pcs of carpentry wood together. If it was scratches, then its wont be able to clean off, if dirty, then it shouldn't be a problem. Just reflect it to the carpenter when he installing the other stuffs the next time he come over.

Looking good
