i like your kitchen wall tiles. very nice

enjoy! but remember to go in early early to prevent being stucked in jammmmm

Hi, Read about your rather painful n frustrating reno experience putting up the wall is nice but takes up space. for MBR toilet still not so bad. however, our common bathroom is very cramp. guess we would be sitting rather close to the wall once wc is up lol u mean console for the living room? that one cost us $980, before 8% discount (7 ft). seems like your ID make u pay for alot of extras huh how much did he charge u for your console? the 3d pic for MBR is dated. did not update the new 3d pics. feature/console for living also have changes but lazy to upload new 3d pics.. we took out the cove lights for mbr so now only left with downlights for mbr.

how's your reno getting along?

Initially, we took out alot of stuff from our reno quote trying to save cost. Not only did we add all those stuff back, we added even more stuff! Our reno budget has totally burst big time. Just hope the outcome will be as good as the 3D drawings. Feature Wall, Console & Study Table for Bedroom 2 Glass panel in the middle will be black instead of the one shown in 3D drawing. Feature Wall & Console for Bedroom 3 Have added in black glass panels for the console to prevent dust from collecting hence lesser cleaning for me Recessed Cabinet for Study Room must really control to NOT add any more stuff!!

I'm also looking for a table like this. Please let me know if you hv find anything similar at a cheaper price. Thanks

This is going to be the arrangement of our big furniture. As you can see, the empty space beside the dining area is meant for mahjong session As for the rest of the items, we will plan again when the house is ready.

Actually its not alot. One can of spray can settle all. Just remember this, if you are getting Legrand, get it from Choo Chiang. For Zencelo, buy from YES Electrical and make your trip worth.

As requested by our dear photog ,we proudly present the switches we used for our place. Clipsal Zencelo Sliver for living/dining/bedroom DIY spray work for the switches backing : We do not know what spray paint to use initially, but decided to try our luck with Nippon Paint Pylon (Sliver Chrome 471) And we are quite satisfied with the result. I would say the color is about 90% similar to the the face plate.

Very nice! What kind of lightings are you using? LED or Halogen?

Work resumed earlier than on schedule. Though the schedule showed a two week break during the CNY period, painting works started on Monday, 7 Feb 11. Painting Works (1st Coat. Sealer has already been applied before CNY) The pics are rather dark as I did not bring my camera yesterday so could only shoot with my phone's camera. Common Toilet Tiling works are done for the common toilet. As the initial towel hooks we wanted were out of stock, we bought a different hook. Marble gum was applied just before the CNY break and hopefully polishing can start by end of this week. So happy to see works progressing smoothly so far and the transformation of the house.

Thanks JCase. That is why we choose to do certain things ourselves to save cost like buying of the marble, arrange for transport and workers and later on, will apply sealant oursleves after ID has polished the floor..

22 Jan 11 Waterproofing was done to the marble. And we found this piece of marble damaged. SO and I were both wondering what could have caused such a big impact for the whole piece of marble to crack into pieces.

Further updates!! 21 Jan 2011 My ID told me that today is the day his nightmare starts for finally it's time to load the marble.. LOL Loading of Marble Total of 7 Pallets It's really alot of work loading the marble up to the unit. Each trolley could only carry like 10 pieces of marble each time and we have about over 380 pieces of marble!! Luckily we managed to loan 4 workers to help out. Dry-Laying Yet another tedious job. We had to dry-lay the marble in the unit itself. Our ID was kind enough to lay protective cover on the floor for our dry-laying process. The workers were telling us they have aches all over their bodies at the end of the day from all the carrying of marble and dry-laying process. Really appreciate their help for it's really no easy job. Protective cover to prevent damages to the marble The Process Ceiling works were also completed and plastered nicely. MBR Room Toilet

Anyone know the web source or supplier contact of these LED strips? I need to get some for my new place. Thanks in advance
