  3. OMG!!!!!!!!!!! U r in the same situation as me................... Wondering if Alan's workmanship, responsibility and work ethics same as Uncle Soon or not? Hmm, dunno if he is as easygoing as Uncle or not??? Sighs, we dun haf much choice do we after allllll the delay? He sprang a quick one on us If Alan is not on par, I will definitely blog about it!
  4. Tonite gonna meet up Alan at 10pm to sign the quotation excluding the folding glass wall. Uncle Soon let Alan handle my reno. Anyone know who is Alan and whether he is Uncle's worker or Uncle sub to him? Uncle gave me the quote for the folding glass wall but must wait till finalise then counted. Alan alan, dunno if it is such a good thing after all......................

  6. yo, pinkbetter n booy also, we may not be doing it after all depending on the cost and whether the sub-contractor is able to do what we wanted in the first place.
  7. yo, mine will only be hacking on mon! not me not me.............
  8. wow, tt's pretty looong.............. I better dun grumble too much oh, saw your t-blog the existing condition of your house very nice already but after some reno, I believe you will make it even better!
  9. Hmm, due to some unforseen circumstances, starting work for my home gonna delay by one more day. Sianz......... Oh, I forgot to share what I gonna do previously. Hmm, just a rough layman's description of what we intend to do : Replace front door and sliding windows with bifolding aluminum powder coated doors with one window. To cover up part of the spaces in between neighbours. To have a storage place below the staircase with feature wall and tv console. To hack and retile living room area. To hack and retile kitchen area. To hack walls of the guest room and wall of the dining area. To have foldable glass walls instead for guest room * This is the complicated part whereby uncle soon keep quoting and requoting and yet to finalise...... To have glass swing door for kitchen and fixed glass panel above half of wall. To modify existing kitchen cabinet. To change the worktop for kitchen cabinet. To add anti-slam hinges to existing kitchen cabinet. To modify size of first floor toilet. To change to motorised opening of roofing at kitchen. To hack part of some walls at second storey to reconfigure layout. To have a bath tub, shower area and wash basin at the toilet. To build a 10ft wardrobe. To lay laminated flooring for 2 rooms at the second storey.
  10. I will be very interested to see your house
  11. thank u yeah, we are all getting married in aug! but currently busy with our newly adopted puppy and the upcoming reno to prepare for the wedding our place is located near windsor hotel, not the circuit road area (which is nearer to serangoon ). as we are not doing any structural changes, definitely much easier than hdb. hmm, i contacted uncle soon before getting my keys but he asked me to call him after that. after i collected my keys, it's about 3 weeks before start of reno (assuming we can start tomorrow) is that consider fast to settle with uncle? we think it's quite slow already since the house is vacant for 3 weeks while we are already paying for property tax etc.
  12. omg, uncle superman or what............... can handle so many projects at one go.......... true lah, i will be also if mine ends up like yrs
  13. Small boy n ivy did their reno around the same time. Now it's familyof4, yrself n myself Exciting!!!
  14. Update After reading online on other people's forum on how hard it is to contact Uncle Soon, a bit of comfort here. ME 2!!!!!!!!! Finally met up with uncle soon this morning to finalise today Total damage, 38.4k for everything! He said to start work on thursday. For that, I am keeping my fingers cross still............
  15. Thanks I bought from wihardja but not the outlet at Clementi. Previously I bought outdoor picnic set from them also. 2 chairs and 1 table for 79 dollars. However, I dun think all things can buy from the shop. For certain products, the quality a bit missing
  16. Since unable to confirm with uncle soon yet, let me blog about what I bought............... On average, outdoor wooden deck cost around 1k plus for the space that we wanted Cost savings solution! We bought solid wood floor tiles at $4.90 each Total tiles required, 200 plus only............... No need to hack floor, just overlay. If tired of look next time, just remove. http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/9145/img2733w.jpg
  17. Hi, Could anybody comment on what is the best fridge to get for the best value for money, it's durability and energy efficiency? Ideally, we would like to have a fridge with ice-making capabilities...but not sure how practical it is. Would appreciate any help! Thanks!
  18. halo, quite amazing for this forum to enable pple to meet! keke, hopefully k catch hold of uncle soon soon (pun intended)
  19. thanks regarding the comment on the gate huh, the toilet is pretty long but narrow............ we are reconfiguring the layout for the second storey. pple in the past want to minimise the amount of space for toilet but times haf change!

  23. ohhh maybe he fainted after receiving my call in the evening. I press him for my mil's quote... he has been hatching it for like more than a month.. hatch until now no sound no picture... so i tell uncle to help me if not my mil will nag me to death... he sounded as if it was really tough to set time aside to give me that quote... and i can understand lah cos so many others also waiting for him to quote. Alrite, uncle soon called and said the price quoted could be done! He will try to pass me the quotation for me to sign........ (keep my fingers cross first since he's so busy)
  24. okie, i will try to contact uncle soon over the next few days but cant drag too long also as already got keys liao.
