really really cool tap! so sexy.... like you?

Ok... Pm-ed

Wow!! Bathroom also got tv! Luxury! So nice.... Wonderful idea!

yup, therat is correct. that is what i copy and paste from hdb website: date of taking possession of the flat to the date of application for a flat.

this is what written in HDB website: Existing Owner or Ex-Owner of a Flat You can apply for a flat if you, your spouse or any of the essential occupiers listed in the application is an existing owner or ex-owner of a: Flat bought directly from HDB; or DBSS flat from the developers; or Resale flat bought under the CPF Housing Grant Scheme This is on condition that a 5-year period (excluding any period of subletting of the whole flat) has lapsed from the date of taking possession of the flat to the date of application for a flat.

welcome to the world of HDB!

yup, starhub is quite good. they do their cable service quite efficiently. i am not so sure abt fiber though. cos fiber internet was under opennet. then opennet sell to providers like singtel and starhub and M1. any problem, you call starhub, they have to call opennet. haiz.... hope nothing will go wrong lah.

get ant baits or ant chalk and draw around on your windows. soon, no ants will crawl in anymore.

its all depending on the officer in charged of your area and also what major hacking that you are doing. even if you apply 1 month before, you might not get all approved at one go. if yours is new flat, then there are certain things you cannot hack. if yours is resale, then based on floor plan, those bold line, you cannot hack. But not all floor plans are accurate. look at Terrain1976 tblog, his shown his storeroom as non bold but it is prefab so in the end, no hacking done on 1 of the wall. of course the earlier you apply, the better. remember that if you buying resale and you haven't not gone through the completion, then your seller must sign idemity form. not all sellers willing to do that.

hahahah... i know.... soon they will want their own WIW, just like mine. 15.5ft in length for wardrobe with 8ft shoes cabinets.

ashley, jshome contractor did apply permit for her. but permit can be given in stages or permit can be given on certain items and not on certain items. for mine, my contractor sent request to hack 4 walls about 3 weeks before reno suppose to start. 1st approval, only kitchen wall approved. resent again for the remaining 3 walls, only bathroom was approved. then reno started while 3rd request was sent and it was approved after the rest of hacking have been done. so there was abt 1 week that no work was done as pending the approval of the other 2 walls. if you are not urgent to move, then you can wait till all approval given before start work. for me, which same case as jshome, we want reno to start asap. so while waiting for approval, those been approved, just start first.

its like a chalk.... those you use during primary school days (unless you were much younger than me). just draw around area that have a lot of ants like rubbish chute, corners of windows, or holes where the ants are coming out from. just draw like how you would draw on black board.

ya, and the fire rated door for mine was $1200, for taichipanda was $1140 but hers is $1700!

hahahaha..... gals are gals after all!!

door frames for $510? my door frame only $80 leh. i think time for you to look for more contractors / IDs

ya lah, your place big mah... hehehe.. and you plan to stay there and not move again, right? then can reno again after few years lah... no rush!

ok lah, i will go look look see see when i free.... hehehehe.... just to kay poh and keep in mind what i want. hehehe...

how many ID / contractor you met? none told you that you cannot change toilet bowl position and need fire rated door? thank goodness now you found quite a good one. $223 pfr is a bit high, usually abt $200-$220 but i think its not that bad. if he will give you overall discount then will even out. the fire rated door a bit ex.... but other bedroom and store room door price is ok. my fire rated door was $1200. depends on the condition of the flat. if the wiring was done more than 10 years ago, better for you to rewire again. as for prices, really depends on how many power point and lighting points that you want. some ppl want 20 downlights in living room, then will be 20 x $30 (roughly) = $600. but for me, i only need 6 points so only 6 x $30 = $$180. i have 17 double sockets, so its 17 x $55 = $935 but if you only want to have 10, then it could be $550 only. so if you want a lot, then you pay more. for my 4 room, i only paid slightly less than $3k. for 3 room, i think maybe $2-$2.5k?

What a nice sofa set! Comfortable? Which seahorse shop you go?

When I bought my oven at warehouse sales, it was old model which they don't sell anymore outside. And I bought it in mar last year so I think now even can't find. To me, all built in oven abt the same. Only whether it can last long and whether easy to clean. As I mentioned, I wanted a flat door on the inside for easy cleaning. So this suit me well with the right pricing. But I think ariston (the brand I bought) is one of the cheaper brand ard for oven.

I don't have yr mobile that's why didn't call you. And I sent pm cos worried you don't come in but I guess too late. Hehe... So paisey to go over when you not in. I like your kitchen leh.... The laminate very nice.... Yr master toilet tiles too. And yr gals wardrobe.... Good idea but I wonder enough for both of them or not. Hehe.....

definitely cheaper in malaysia. but you got to be careful lah. make sure all working.... if not working, then you got to waste another trip to malaysia again. all the best in your reno!

you still want to reno ah? wait till few more years lah.....
