i think normal for grouting to change color after acid wash... as for the dark prints, try using thinner etc and see if can remove first... my house kitchen, the tiles are black but like after that there were patches of white.. some of it we managed to clean using thinner, others through gradual cleaning. i dont recall that tiles supposed to be uneven one lei... but ask henry first ba... oh, and remember that i told u laminates takes a while to settle down... so u will feel as if u floating on it for a while (nt sure about the creaking part though) and i think we have the same sink for our common toilet! -
he is an on site supervisor so his job is to check for defects... and Ah San is actually very young! quite surprised to find out his age... he is super nice... will tell you abt quality of the tiles etc

hey, u got ah san as ur tiler too! he is super good! his works passed my dad's standard (my dad is helping to supervise the construction of a condo at Nassim road which have 1+k toilet bowl so i think if it passed his standard quite good liao!) haha... and ah san is very responsible. the moment he heard one of my tile is found to be hollow, he immediately came down to repair it and it was on a SUNDAY afternoon! enjoy your soon to be ready house!

left with backsplash in kitchen and glass table top for vanity cabinet not up yet. but we have moved in and stayed since sat... just that kind of inconvenient without a functional kitchen (sink and hob cannot be used yet) and a proper sink in mbr toilet.... otherwise, really love the house!

hahah... but it is super fun to go up and see that there is something new about the house! hee... he initially told me solid table top will be up only end of this week...but... he got it up on tuesday! heeee.....

2-3 coats of sealant if i am not wrong... then another 2 coats of emulsion i think..... finally the paint...
-
mcnair road.....it is near balestier ITE... mine is a 4A flat... hence it looks bigger... hee if it is the same tiles, do be careful... cuz the tiler did mentioned that it can be quite brittle.. our first shipment of the tiles, several of them cracked... we plastered and painted the kitchen walls only too! regretted not plastering whole flat..... house is too old.. painter had a hard time at my house... the paint kept getting absorbed into the wall..
-

-
ha. dont worry. i am like u. things havent start yet but i kept asking him when will it be done etc. i got two stacks of tiles that were broken into pieces during the delivery and tiling supposed to start next week. so i already asked him when will the replacement tiles arrived and he was quite calm about it. said that will get it delivered when they figure out how much short fall tiles there is to order also... bleah but he is a funny guy i have to say....
