Hi Rackel, Thanks. Will give TC a call and hopefully can get my 150bucks back. BTW, how do we pay for haulage? We will get bill? or what? So far, havent pay a single cent. Even the extra 150bucks is paid by my contractor. And, the contractor had yet to collect anything from me... LoL.. I think I am one of the FEW units to finish flooring without paying anything.

Hi all, Do u mean the ID drilled 1 hole in the toilet for the air-con trunking? hmmm... My contractor cut the side of my window.. Think canot hack wor...

toppie, u might want to check with some neighbours who did their toilets. They might not need their shower head anymore and u can perhap "grab" from them free...

Hi all, A tip for those who engaged a contractor instead of an ID. If u have problem finding n matching the wall colours, you may go to Home Fix - Nippon counter. The professional there will advice you on matching colours..

hi liana, I will go to some shop in singapore to check it out.. if really cant find, then i will gather orders n buy online

Ah.. Ah.. Ah.. Ting!! I think I know which shop u are talking about. Thanks will go take a look Holes are easy to patch.. hehe my hubby hack a few wrong holes b4.. hehe.. if the hole is not too big, can use filler to cover. Alternatively, u can use cement to patch. When everything is done, liase with the painter to smoothen the area .

Hi girls, I am thinking of doing a jewellery compartment in my wardrobe. It will look something like those tie compartment where 1/3 of it will holds my hubby's watches and 2/3 will be containing my rings, earrings, necklaces and braclets. Saw an online website selling the Black Velvet trays for jewellery. Anyone interested? hehe

hi all, let me clarify.. for those who have seen my place, u realise that I actually have a water pipe linked to my living room. In order to conseal the pipes, my contractor have to make my floor higher.. hence, when ah-di came, he said my floor is ABOVE standard.. and therefore the need to add 150bucks for the extra cement just wondering if anyone have the same problem as me...

BTW, today I went to my unit... saw the cement screeding guy working... faster ran to buy him some bread n kopi.. hehehe hope he did a good job for my unit.. hmm.. I have 1 question though... That Ah-Di guy told my contractor that our floor is very raised. Hence, more sand n cement is needed. Therefore, either they do lower.. OR we pay 150 bucks to raised the cement level.. Did anyone also face this problem? I know my contractor is not lying.. coz I am around when that Ah-Di made that comment and he also tried to "explain" why that 150 bucks is needed! I feel like a "robert" sia.. ("robert" means carrot head) yeah.. using instant heater also.. i heard of cases where ppl have to wait 5mins for water to heat up etc etc.. higher cost bla bla bla.. think stick to instant heater better..

hmmm... for my case, coz i happen to be hacking the wall also.. hence, those pipes are all "in the open".. hence, my contractor can easily cut n conseal it.. then patch up with the hdb tiles. About the water flow, I am not sure abt the swinging of tap. But, my contractor told me, if i am not putting storage heater, no difference de. they are not thinking like American!! Just look at our pigeon hole bedroom!! grrrrrrrr

btw, do u guys think it is very stupid to do an SCV point in the kitchen? and somemore put so high!!

hi all, a big thanks to tension for organising this gathering and also rachel and liana for letting us visit their units. Tension : wish that ur nightmare will soon pass ... (Tomorrow will be a better day) Rachel : Colorful place and thanks for lending ur toilet.. Liana : Thanks for "helping" me sweettalk my hubby into getting the BLUM system for my kitchen.. High 5 man... Also, not forgetting to thank you for ur generous offer to gift me the door. (But I took the wrong side ) Bonkitty : Been a long long time since I last seen u. hehe.. thanks for ur toilet door too. Meepok : for my house, my contractor removed the pipes (I think they cut n hide it inside the tiles). Totally cannot see any pipes.

hehehe .... great minds think alike!! gadgetman, can see ur house... i think it look nice nice too

i just clicked on the link.. no problem redcrystal, thanks for the info.. send me the contact pls.

Hi skywu, my reno also started 1 mth ago and still doing the floor now. But cant blame my contractor. Coz did some hacking, hence need HDB approval. I had to extend a waterpipe to my living room also, for a sink.. hence, those also need more coordination !! hope our reno will all progress fast .. btw, who is ur ID?

har! ur renovation took 6mths! no wonder u are so pissed.. which ID ar?? aiyoh.. then what is the latest status?? when will be actual handover? u know hor, i heard from someone that if the ID delay so long, u can KPKB then deduct X amount from the final payment. Dun care them.. they will accept de... a lot of ID firm are prepared to forfeit the last 10% of the payment. Coz a lot of patching work and some just forfeit so no need trouble.

take a look at these http://www.dnalife.com.sg/ http://www.modishop.com/main/stik4fun.html !! hope it helps... i am looking at these too hehe...

sorry .. i have no answers to ur questions..

Mine is master tong.. he is abt 900 for all the dates and fengshui my most expensive light is 270bucks. (MBR light) living room was 250bucks. Hi toppie, my doorbell comes free from the lighting shop. Hence, only the "ding dong" sound. I think standard HDB is battery de. The electrical guy doing the lighting points will be installing them.

lol... i agree that this ah-di is very yaya. But, if u tolong him and tell him u need to rush, he will try to arrange something for u. For my case, he just brought up the sands today and will start work next week. Hope he will do a good job. From my knowledge, my contractor called the bangladesh and they will bring the sands up. They still ask my contractor how many lorries of sand needed.

Hi shivan, my contractor actually prefer the cement screeding to be done only after the living room tiles are done. He said this way, the HDB screeding will follow their height.. easier for them.. But, it is correct to call the Ah-Di. Coz only afte calling him, then my appt is scheduled! I waited 2 weeks.. no news.. after calling him, got response 1 week later..

Hi shivan, The cement screeding is done block by block.. if u want the in-charge contact, drop me a PM.. i have his contact.. next week, they are doing block C.. Hi Dracula, my tiling work is done by HoBee. U can drop by if u want to see the floor. But still 1/2 way done, so, u might not see anything much also As for the carpentry, I got another contractor.. Cant help much
