mould is related to the humidity of the room, the plank (what type of wood), and a number of factors. my suggestion as follow: 1) take out the plank and sun them if possible 2) buy a can of clear lacquer, those that look like spray paint of different color. but choose "clear lacquer" 3) spray on all sides of the plank. it should be able to resolve or at least be able to prolonged the it greatly.

personally i used to hav the same issue. took me 1 day to remove all the silicon, and reapply black silicon. the shower screen was the most tedious portion. but till date i think its the easiest way, though its abit like ostrich hide the head in the hole? hee..

simple rule of thumb. just treat them like you are the delivery guy.(just imagine you are in their shoe) kindness begets kindness, politeness begets politeness. if you dun like to meet some arrogant fellow who think he is the king, neither would these common folks who are just like any one of us. just say nicely everyone would understand. its actually better for you to QC on the spot so that if there are any issues, it would be easier to rectify since the guys are there. even if they cant rectify on the spot, it will be easier for them to understand what is the issue since they are there. cheers, small matters dun need to stress yourself, happy shopping

i think what you are referring to are "cultured marble" in fact a number of those in the market which are very popular are not marble. to a certain extent those you are referring to are plaster with a layer of laminate. however they have the pros and cons. "cultured marble" are easier in term of maintenence, more resistant to coffee stains, however, they also scratched very easy. -link hidden-

the best time to buy furniture i would think its the earlier the better. (however it still depends on a number of factor) generally prices are going up across the board, from mattress to sofas to wardrobe etc. (most things in singapore the prices are gng up) though i think we do not need to go into details and discussion of why they are going up. assuming the sellers are looking at a same amount of profit, if the cost is going up i see no reason the selling will be going down, unless maybe clear stock or new model coming in etc? so maybe there is not really a best time, but a time and shop and salesperson you are comfortable with.

every brand got their high and low end mattress available. king koil and magic koil belong to 2 different company, with no relation to each other. you might want to take a look at the below link for some idea? http://www.furnituresg.com.sg/Mattress-by-Brand/Magic-Koil there is a blog which i wrote sometime back. just my 2 cents worth, you can read for more opinion. http://www.furnituresg.com.sg/index.php?route=module/blog/view&blog_id=6

in singapore the standard sizes are single,super single,queen and king. you can always custom make to the size you want for both the bed frame and mattress. however do note, super single mattress is 42" and queen is 60". for custom make the cost would be higher than the standard sizes available. anytime you like to change mattress, you need to customize again, and you might have problem looking for bedsheet (or you can use queen size for your slightly smaller mattress) below are some choices which can customise to what you like and you might want to consider. http://www.furnituresg.com.sg/BEDROOM/Leather-bed

you shld be able to view this sort in major showrooms, the 1st and 3rd image look like part of sectional sofas. for example the chaise portion of some models of L-shape sofas

if you are the more hands on type, you can always also consider going to hardware shops to get the L-metal to the sizes you want. then fix up in the storeroom so that you can cover the full length if needed. things needed: 1. dimension before going down 2. how many of the L-bar needed (for the vertical and horizontal) 3. the triangle corner plate needed for fixing up the rack 4. size of the plywood needed hope this helps

there are 2 main type in the market, 1 being called day bed: no pulling out of mechanism required, look like a sofa and you can put a mattress on it. http://www.furnituresg.com.sg/index.php?route=product/category&path=96_44 2nd sofa bed: act like a sofa and you can pull/flip down different parts depending on model to convert in a bed when needed http://www.furnituresg.com.sg/index.php?route=product/category&path=96_43

its definitely cheaper to buy from there...but do take note of a few things before deciding to purchase from there... 1) in the mall there, there are thousands of outlets there selling stuff 2) usually 1 outlets are more specialise in a certain type of items, eg some sell sofa, some only coffee table and console 3) get ready someone who can help you transport back the stuffs and able to unload the things and delivered to your house 4) the charges involve in transport 5) alot of them come to singapore in packing form, i.e box form..thus must have someone to be able to fix them up (do note it's not that easy to fix up some of the stuffs) not like ikea way of fixing, sometime i may take 2hr jus to fix up a tv cabinet or shoe cabinet jus some points to note

1st determine your budget. then wat's your preferences. synthetic leather has 2 main type, the PVC and PU myths: Leather are not less warm than synthetic leather but rather, to be more precise, it takes you longer when you start to feel the heat. eg. you sit on pvc you take 10 min to start sweating on the back, on leather sofa you take 15mins to start sweating, both will sweat. Leather will have mold and not PVC? not true. moldy or not depending on house environment, if your house is very humid no matter wat sort of material will have mould. i have seen solid timbre getting moldy too... leather must take effort to moisturise and avoid soapy water and even normal tap water only...if after clean water to wipe, please moisturise it... you dun really need full leather sofa, can consider half leather if you like to reduce the cost regards

1st when in air con enviroment i think watever the material also feel cool and comfy... 1 thing i realise whichever the material of the cover, one thing to note is for a sofa of the same material, the softer the back and seat (plush type) though its comfy, but they will be warmer cos when its soft so more of your body area will be covered thus warmer... so when more fibre fill it tend to make the sofa softer so do take note... though if comparing a sofa of same softness of fibre n sofa of soft foam, then fibre is less warm lor...
