he got good deal leh, contractor charging him at cost. so might be even less than $100 pfr. hehehehe...

you might have overload your whole house.... too many items using electrical. you might want to get an electrician to come and check? that was my concern when i was rewiring. old hdb only 30Amps and you have to calculate all electrical items you have at home and add their voltages together.

taichipanda knows more lah.... i only know from reading.... for solid tops, there are 100% polyester, mix polyesters and acrylic and 100% acrylic. LG have 100% acrylic and of better quality too so more tolerant to scratches and stains. and i think would be more temp tolerant.

Reno Must Be Jai Yen Yen ........and A Super, Super Overdue One
May_dream1 replied to IPineapple's topic in Reno t-Blog Chat
ya i know.. heheheh... not brick tiles, subway tiles. -
No I havent done before. My solid top still in tip top condition. My friend (another forummer) did it before cos a lot of scratches. Her contractor did it free for her.
-
The polish is basically remove 1-2mm of the solid top. So minor scratches, stained or turn yellowish should be able to remove.

Those pellets only effective for 3-4 days then will come back again. These chalks?? Nearly 2 months and not a single one I have seen. My whole house is basically white so 1 ant will be so obvious! So only the chalks works!!

didn't know there are white tv. what brand and how big?

potatoes, as long as you still have the extra tiles, your tiler would be able to add the ledge for you. and you can only add the ledge after all the wall and floor tiles are completed! so anytime you want to do, you can do it. my ledge was slightly bigger and i can put big bottles of shampoos (those 1 liter type) in 2 rows cos my ledge is not as long as theirs. if have space, the make a long one cos it would definitely look nicer. but if you scare that it would take up too much space in your shower area, then you can make a shorter but wider ledge.

Looking For Reno Ideas For 4-Rm Bto Flat In Punggol
May_dream1 replied to HongWeizhong's topic in Reno t-Blog Chat
Congrats in getting your new BTO. usually for new flats, reno is around 20k unless you are building a lot a lot of cabinets everywhere. there are quite a few famous IDs/contractors here so take time to call them and have discussion to find out which have the most chemistry with you and provide good pricing. It can be a fun reno... so enjoy the process.
