DAY 37, 27th Jun, Wed Working Today. Wife helping to receive my lights delivery. Cabinet guys continue. Finally everything finish (with some correction). Andrew fix everything with them. After work, visit the house. All done. Cabinet 100% completed. ; ) I also managed to fixed up my 2 rows of IVAR shelve in my store room. Getting ready to move my things into the store :dancingqueen:

DAY 36, 26th Jun, Tue Cabinet guys continue with their installation work. Shiok... finally seeing more things up. Shape of the kitchen forming. :thumbs up: Sad, found that 1 piece of my PAX side panel cracked. Called Ikea, arrange for a replacement piece to be delivered on Thur. Great progress, completed fixing up all my furniture. As I will be replacing all my door locks. I will have to remove them to make sure I purchase the right size. (DIY again to cut a bit of cost). Manage to remove 1 sample from bedroom door. Main-door key lock & handle lock removed. Iron gate lock also removed. ; ) Went Ikea Alexandra to get IVAR shelving (Tampines run out of stock for the size I need).

DAY 35, 25th Jun, Mon This is REAL busy day. - Cabinet installation day. - OpenNet re-wiring. - Ikea Delivery. - Bed & Mattress Delivery. Cabinet guys arrive 1st, look around, face black black, (maybe wake up from the wrong side of the bed) Make some comments on the water pipe. (not my problem, let him talk to Andrew). They send in all the cabinet (not a lot since my cabinet work to Andrew consider not many ; p, ONLY kitchen). Ikea & Bed & Mattress all arrive at the same time !!! :jawdrop: Full house. OpenNet guys installing their wiring. Ikea delivering my PAX System, Tromso Bunk Bed, Besta TV rack. Cabinet guys fastest (they have more people, think 6 of them). Chop chop finish moving all their cabinets into the house. Bed & Mattress guys comes next, got to walk along the narrow way (as most of the available space are used to put the kitchen cabinet)... into the room. They got to fix-up the bed frame. (I'm using those storage bed frame, with Queen size mattress on top, surprisingly, its not difficult to open, with the help of hydraulic). Ikea delivery guys come up last. (Ultra heavy packing !!!) That guy curry till sweat sweat !! :jawdrop: After all these delivery. Time for me to be busy !!! (fix-up the PAX bed, Tromso Bunk Bed, Besta TV rack). Tired tired tired...

DAY 34, 23rd Jun, Sat Vinyl guy here today. Actual plan is to finish 2 bed room so that when my delivery comes on Monday, it can goes into the respective room. But this guy is good. He completed all the 3 bedroom on Saturday. From morning till last light (btw, lighting is not up yet, so all work have to stop when daylight runs out.) Painting work still continues. Will post pix later. :bangwall:

DAY 33, 22nd Jun, Fri Painting work continue... Funny, when Andrew saw the bedroom, he got the shock... Its too bright to his liking, but we like it ; p Its bright green in color.

Actually he suggested to go one. I'm actually taking my time to hunt for the ideal light ; p Now hunting for 3 lights. Dining table area, main door entrance, MBR entrance. Trying to find something that will give a 'wow' factor when switch on :dribble: But I can't really define how or what is the wow factor, that's why will need to find lor. Lucky I can DIY the installation, so won't be so worrying about arranging for installation.

I tried storage heater last time, but bad experience. Recently check out that brand and model, saw many negative feedback on that brand storage heater, so consider I suay lor. Have reply your mail on the address. Suppose to go to the shop with Andrew last 2 days, but he busy ley, so didn't manage to go with him. Have yet to select the light for my dining table.

Have PM U. ; )

Ops, have gone missing again for few days. A little busy busy... ; p Will get the address and pm you all later.

Ai ya, U ultra experience in moving liao, no problem one lar. Me never move before, going to :bangwall: liao..... And guess what !!!.... today busy busy busy.. forget to call mover :jawdrop: Think have to go rent lorry to DIY move liao :disturb:

Yes, need to do acid wash, but that will only be for those tiles area. For vinyl, don't need. Think that one just need to mob can liao. For the move, got to shift the bunk bed frame and 1 big wardrobe over, also some not too big but need lorry to move one. So will have to get mover to help lor. Oh, this one ar, use to it liao. When can't find anything, will have to think hard, than will go back to my mum's place to search. Found, bring over to bedok, leave it there. That's why over 9 years, tonnes of things build up in Bedok. Some no place, put at my sis place ; p Some still at my mum's place. Some in StoreHub !!! Think this Sat, when the utility room finish painting, will start to arrange to fix up a rack there. Than can start moving some items over there 1st. :bangwall: Thinking of moving I head big liao. (think the move word simply don't gel in my brain !!! :jawdrop: )

Same situation, both my bathroom are apart, hence pipe will need to stretch across my dining room. So instant heater for both bathroom ; )

LOL.... in the beginning don't know when can move, so don't dare to arrange. Now getting nearer, everything seems more zhun liao, than remember haven't even call mover yet ; p Tomolo will have to give that moving uncle a ring liao... ; p P.S. This will be the 1st time I really move house lor. Last time move hao siao one, everytime go home just bring 1 or 2 item over... ; p :bangwall:

love your bathroom tiles. Very nice. Very 3D feel ; )

First of all, congratulation in getting your flat. ; ) From the look of your toilet pipe, seems like those old type (non-plastic ones). You might want to check with either HDB if they plans to upgrade the toilet & piping. My MIL place (Bedok South Ave 2) is currently going through piping replacement & toilet upgrading (those shower & WC separated type). If they have plan to upgrade or replace the old type of piping, than you won't want to spend too much or even do your toilet, cause if they really come & do upgrading, all will be gone. Than $$$ wasted.

Yup.. so far, hopefully everything on schedule. Monday carpentry all in, my bed & mattress in, ikea order in. tue finish installation. Wed light in, thur install light.. after which touch up. think that's about it liao. Along the way can start moving my things over. than can start moving liao ; p ... die... forget about getting mover... siao... tomolo got to arrange liao ; p

mine behind also no tiles ; p I'm ok with it ; )

Same same, won't sell until kids move out. Or maybe stay for life liao. Next time won't be able to get such size houses liao. Actually same same, my mil place, bedok south ave 2 (just 1 ave away), everything also corrode. MY Alu Allow MTB, last time at my mum's place in Toa Payoh, 2 years also no corrode, bring to bedok, few months started corroding liao... so sad.... than another SS Dining table & chair set, don't know the SS how good, also started having rust spots after few months... Zzzz.. tired of cleaning, gone liao throw away (heng, given by my mil's bro one ; p ). That's why moving forward, my place will mostly be WOOD base stuff ; p I avoid anything metal. ; p (if can lar, hinge bo bian ; p ) my seller's iron wrought grill seems ok ley. but don't know how long he install liao lar... ; )

Same same... think should be original HDB... LOL

Ay... now than I notice. u having storage heater + instant heater ?

This instant heater (Alpha Smart 18) comes with 2 package, 1 with only hand shower, 1 with rain shower + hand shower. For the rain shower set, it comes with a 3 way switch (rain shower / rain shower + hand shower / hand shower ). The below 2 way tap personal addon, don't come with. Alpha Smart 18 (think is 18i) is the latest model, think shop haven't receive the stock yet ( I KS, called up the supplier to check after seeing the webbie). The latest model comes with build in pump, approved type in SG. RRP from supplier $5xx. (really very very $XXX)... Comes with rain shower set. So really good for house with low water pressure.
