1 mth to unpack is quite normal. Happy unpacking $56k to renovate your EM .....it's considered high for me. That was what my ID quoted me initially..... Manage to narrow to 45k...

Hi neighbour Hugo, welcome to Serangoon N. Your place is indeed very convenient and amenities are easily accessible. Your floor plan is exactly the same as mine. How is the current condition of your unit? 5 weeks of reno is very fast..... Mine took 9 weeks! Do you intend to hack down any walls? Are you keeping your balcony?

Thanks Strikingreality My place is currently very messy after move in..... Won't take any pics for the time being until everything is in order. However, if you wish to view my completed reno pics, u can view the "before" and "after" photos under this blog, page 8 http://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=40650&st=280

Thanks.... I have not rested since i started moving in 2 weeks ago. Everyday, it has been packing, moving , then unpacking. Never get to really rest my muscles! Feeling so tired. This will probably be the last time I would want to move house..... Ha ha !

The Kid's room looks very nice . I like the wall colours and the cute-looking fan....

Moving-In I have finally completed moving all my things from my old place. I took one afternoon to clean up the old place and ready now ready to handover tomorrow. It took bro Renmapiao 3 days to move all his stuff but it took me 2 weeks...... very "XIONG"!!! . Nonetheless, I was very pleased My next target is unpacking and hope to return all the 100 carton boxes to the mover by next Friday. The 2 high chairs from Vhive for my Breakfast Counter were delivered to me during midweek and I thought they blend in very well

Sorry to know this bad news. So is your contractor giving u new laminate? Or reuse the old ones?

Yaolong, looks like your reno is progressing well and completing soon? Looking forward to see more of your pictures

I like your kitchen.... A very clean and neat look. Interesting whistling kettle..... Can u tell me where I can get this?

Spotted this warm LED light strip at IKEA electrical section and decided to buy and install it under my overhang kitchen cabinet. It looks much better than I thought and it is very bright in the dark.

Renmapiao, Congrats on your moving in. You took only 3 days to clear all your stuff.... I m also a victim of "loose" items..... The day the movers arrived, I still have about 5 to 10% of things not cleared becos we ran out of carton boxes! I still have things in my old place and I have till this weekend to clear before I hand over.....

My ID has arranged the plumber to fix the the drainage problem @ my MBR.... we dare not use the bathroom over the past few days due to the "flooding" . Plumber said that the choking was due to the debris stuck beneath the pipe and he had to use his bare hands to dig them out! Now that the problem is resolved, we can now continue to enjoy our rain shower ....

Tiling looking good. Hope your plastering will be smooth smooth too! .....

Renmapiao, Congrats on the completion your reno. Great to know that you have also moved over the weekend. Enjoy your new home

Hi, it has been 1 week after moving into my unit. The most challenging task now is the unpacking. I have given myself 2 weeks to unpack the 100 carton boxes, Everything went fine in my new place. The only problem we encounter is that the MBR bathroom drainage was badly choked. Fortunately, we realised it early! Otherwise the undrained water would have overflowed into our MBR and damage our laminate flooring. I called ID for help and he would arrange someone to attend to this matter I got air con people to service the 4 no. of aircon system 4 unit.

Wah, your place still look so neat after moving in.... I m finding so hard to do the unpacking

U have got very nice looking lounge chair where did u purchase this?

Congrats on your moving in today. Hope your hubby can cope with all the packing and coordination with the movers. I understand the stress..... as I just moved in during the weekend. Didn't even sleep the night before.

I was informed that Union Gas is charging $31.

How long does HDB take to repond to the purchase of recess area? Do they send a letter to tell you whether it is approved? Do I need to call tehm?I am still waiting for approval from them.

Snaem, your progress is looking good.

Just moved into my newly renovated unit over the weekend. It was really a long and tiring experience. I had spent the entire Friday night till sat morning packing my things..... Getting ready for "breakthrough Missions" to pick up my carton boxes and furniture pieces. I was terribly upset when my wife and I realize the 100 carton boxes we ordered were not sufficient. Anyway, the movers used 2 lorries. I had to pay extra for moving the panio. Our silly queen size mattress couldn't Quite fit into the lift, so paid extras for climbing up/down the stairs. Thank goodneess the workers never complain.

Congrats on your completion

Wow.... So fast moving in soon! Hope ur contractor can meet your deadline!

I am also like u... Ligthing kit will brighten up the room
