I was considering metallic epoxy paint for my toilets as they looked cool, but not sure lasting they are. If nothing heavy drops on them, dun think they will crack that easily?

32" F4500 Wi-Fi Ready Smart HD LED TV - OVERVIEW | SAMSUNG Free gift collected from Samsung.Still inside box.Self collect at Bishan street 11 location. Price $325. Interested,sms to Chris 97106778.

Ok, vendor came down to inspect & found gas leakage & was due to broken pipe connection at one of the fan coil units.....Gaincity.....so not all the time that smooth from a company with a gd reputation for aircon installs. For sure, my experience with Gaincity installers was not pleasant one.

Anybody knows whether the above main door lock can be replaced with a digital one?

I got Mit Heavy Ind from Gain city...installed on Sep 18th...tested fine. Just last week, after some reno completion, decided to try out the air-con. To my dismay, it broke down after running for awhile!!!! The power led flashes 7 times with timer led lit....saw from the service manual, indicates either a closed service valve or heat exchanger sensor error. SUX big time!!! Will Wo Kee Hong a call on Monday......never even get to enjoy the aircon & broke down.

I engaged Tay Boon Tat to do up my 4 rm flat Alu grilles only. Total of 1 hall,3 bedrooms & 1 service yard bronze color. $900. Installation was very quick & I am satisfied with the quality. www.tayboontat.com

Just get those push openers to install onto the drawer front or can also be installed at the rails. Note that the drawer will not be tightly shut in this case as the push opener needs a little gap for it to be pushed & spring release.

Recently got a quote from Pdoor for kitchen, width about 900mm, price was $445 for a standard type door....sounds kinda expensive based off forummers here....range saw was about $340 to $380. Also saw bad comments about them, poor service & installation & door not durable....so am still deciding......1st look at their door seems pretty sturdy to me. Anybody has recently used PDoors & can provide price?

It is only clip on damper V-500. I thought standard commercial hinge could be used for those clip on.....let me check it out. As for the JB shop, it is situated at Tmn Sentosa, Melodies garden. The name is Aldeco,Ginmit trading. Here is the website for the products. http://www.ginmit.com/products.html They have a bigger shop at Johor Jaya,where their warehouse is & most of the products can only be obtained from here directly. If you goto Tmn Sentosa outlet, some items will need to be ordered first & couple of days to collect at Tmn Sentosa outlet....pretty inconvienient for SG shoppers. To go to the Johor Jaya outlet, need to travel up to Jusco tebrau city, turn into Johor Jaya, 1st traffic junction,turn right & go straight all the way (maybe 5-10mins of drive) till you reach Jln Sutera. Their shop is just along the road at Jln Sutera 47. Alot of kitchen & toilet accessories & alot more....just go check their website.

Went to Blum showroom today....pretty neat place! also a pretty neat salesgal! ;0 Ok,I got the clip on dampers for the casement doors for cabinets. Only cost $2.43 ea. Not sure what else is required but I saw how this device clips onto the existing hinge in Ikea. Blum label this soft closing feature as blumotion. Similarly for drawers,the soft closing ones come with either extended or normal opening. Those who likes their drawers to open fully,then need to get the extended rails. Cost is not that expensive. For the normal opening rails with blumotion & capacity of 30kg. A pair cost ~$48 (drawer depth ranges from 270-500mm) The extended ones cost more. A pair cost ~$88.(270-550mm) The more heavy duty that can hold 50kg,extended rails cost ~$120-160,depends on the depth. They also have the servo drives...very cool & hitech feel for kitchen....but very expensive for a typical family.Think was ~$300 for one drawer. I then went in JB & found a shop that sells the soft closing rails as well. Made in Malaysia & the cost was Rm60 for a pair!!! What a steal....& they worked equally well like Blum....but cannot be sure about their durability. Got all my rails from JB. 5 drawers worth for less than Rm300.

For frosted glass sliding doors & good sliding bearings...cost will be more. Mine cost $240 psf. For normal laminate sliding doors,about $200 psf. if u get ID to provide the service,prepare to pay about 20% more. So direct get the carpenter to do the build in cabinets will be recommended if cost savings is what u are looking for....search about this forum to get reliable & good carpenters. Some homework needs to be done. ID is no frills but u pay for that.

I am still deciding whether to get the KDK baby fan or the Alpha V6 40inch fan for my rooms? In terms of cost, they are about the same if buy from JB...diff probably about $30-40 more for the alpha. In terms of looks, I think the V6 looks better & comes with a light feature. In terms of performance, really dunno, many ppl complained about KDK baby fan while some find it working really well. As for V6, not really alot of comments for this fan in the forum....or maybe I did not search hard enough. Some advice needed here. KDK baby or Alpha V6 will be a better choice?

It is 44 inch.

Advice is to get them yourselves...ID usually want to bring u to shops that they can earn commission & so u buy at higher price. However, you need to get advice from ur ID on what types & sizes of lights to get based off your design layout.

How is the payment terms usually? Like how much to pay first? I have contacted Mr Kok & will arrange a house visit by him. Not sure is it only cash terms or he also accepts VISA.

I got quotes to box up aircon ducts (about 2.5feet by 8inches) for $280 & to box up living room ceiling (about 5.5feet by 9 inches) also for $280. Do you think these quotes are reasonable? It was provided among my overall full home renovation by ID. My ID quoted me L-box + false ceiling for a room (3.8m by 3.3m) for $650. http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/1546/airconpiping1edit.jpg http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/3394/to...peatlivingr.jpg Need some advice here.

Nobody done about the same item like mine?.....need some advice here..;(

Anybody can provide me info whether below quotes are reasonable? Supply & install 6 pcs of timber wood (act like a divider) - $900 Supply & install 4ft by 8ft bevelled tea color glass with laminate at the perimeter - $1400 http://img840.imageshack.us/img840/9401/sc...03sep082049.jpg

Can PM me Alex number? devion2323@yahoo.com.sg Thanks

Anybody can share experience with their kitchen sinks? Heard about the undermount sinks which looks nice but some say can leak water at the joints over time. Heard about those zero radius sinks, looked squarish all over the edges.....look nice but high maintenance as dirt easily stuck & difficult to clean at the 90deg edges. There are also talks about high grade steel, thickness, noise reduction pads over the sinks......so many additional features to think about....so buying a kitchen sink may not be an easy affair.

Got the lights from JB today...total cost 2.4K Ringgit. 29 downlights,21 Phillips T5 4feet lamps,2 Alpha S100 heaters,door bell,kitchen,toilets lights. The Phillips T5 4feet cost is RM29 each....not sure abt Sg price. Also got a 4 gang remote lighting switch IR mode at RM90.China brand though...so fingers crossed. Got this from LC (lighting center) midway to the Tampoi lighting center where I got rest of the stuffs. btw,the shop will provide a much lowered bill for custom taxes....so be sure to request for this.

Any findings from JB trip?

The Urbantec brand is from this site. http://ai-m.net/ As for the Nasonik, I found this selling in those HDB best value bargain stores which sells alot of misc stuffs. You may try Bendeemeer mall as I saw these selling there. Not sure why u are stating battery life as a consideration for IR unit...I am using a RF type for 2 years & has not replace the batteries in the remote since then.

Anybody has feedbacks from this shop? http://www.universalunion.com.sg

Have anybody tried using LED downlights? I seen several types of LED lightings sold in Sim Lim tower as well as JB. They are rated at 3W to 6W & the ones that I was looking at is the screw on type....replaces existing energy saving bulbs. They do look bright when I view them installed into a downlight casing....but quite difficult to compare with all the ambient lights. Cost I got was RM35 for a 3W model in JB & $25 for a 6W model in Sim Lim tower. It will definitely be saving energy when replace with existing 18Wx2 lights in a downlight. However am not sure how long the LED bulbs would last. brightness also not sure whether is adequate enough....unless I purchase & make comparisons in my home.
