I got my toilet bowl and basin from this shop and got my contractor uncle to fix it up. Mine is the W203 + A248 = $268. http://www.besttoiletbowl.com/promotion.php

17TH DEC 2011 Went down Megatex with my friend who wants to buy washing machine. End up I also buy myself a TV. Was about to leave the place when I decide to see the promotion on the LG Smart TV. Standing there hear the guy promote the TV for a good 15mins before he announce the price.. was $1999, was $1399, now is less than $1k. LOL..i know was some marketing strategy..but still fell for it when it said $848 I think the TV can play games, surf internet, and some other functions de..but i will be happy i can watch tv program with it.

Lol..but but..*greedy me*..can I have the piping hot redang too?!!?!? haha Btw..ur hse near Temasek Poly? Ohh..can help me check with your angelic ID what type of paint is that?? Thanks!

Wah that sink set cost $550-580 thereabout right?? I saw @ kaki bukit there... too bad was too big for my kitchen esp when i donno how to cook.

Thanks Jeep3.. wanted a retro retro theme but I guess only the tiles are retro now.. LOL I still like those red tiles of yours!

The wall that pop out. The wall now.. The other side of wall where washbasin/washing machine/dryer will be.

Being cheapo, I kept the wall tiles and just did redo the floor tiles. The kerb will be done up too. My MAHTONG..washbasin and instant heater *sorry still bergin..yet to open* The switches used in the house.

14TH DEC 2011 Sad due to protruding walls and beams which cannot drill,I cant fix my aircon to where i wan.Instead the locations result in fat trunkings all over my room. Only Room 2 is not affected by any trunking....... and .....Aircon in the hall My ideal choice was just above the bedroom doors for the room units.

The red tiles are sooo nice!!! Now so green with envy, esp that ISLAND..and did i hear redang!!! LOL

Well I guess most quotes are valid for 1mth? IF any re-quote, price may varies due to material costs, i guess the contractor is not wrong.Just not sure how high or (who noes) lower it might get? Reno cost are going up every year.. few yrs back 10k is able to do quite alot of work.. 10k now..

closest i came across was some "mosaic" tiles @ renohub. as i wasn't looking for tiles there, din really take good look at it. http://www.renohub.com.sg/flooringmosaic.htm think those vintage mosaic tiles are no longer in production.

Oh din noe they require help today too. Got my frds sign up for the 2 sats events only.

Do we need book/reserve for the car to be washed????? or is first drive in first washed??

Went by the house on fri and saw reno on-going. Place too dark n messy to take pics. Electrical uncle bz at kitchen drilling away. He reminded me that the aircon guy can fix up the aircon next week and he will inform me in advance when to send the lights over. Another uncle humming away while painting the house. Confirm with me the colors again and ask me to send the toilet bowl/sink/instant heater/mirror and all stuff that need to be installed over next week! So far no major hicups except I need fork out $1k more to hack off all the kitchen tiles which are Hollow. there is no issue with the kitchen sink piping as it is sealed w the cement kitchen base (done long ago by previous owners) 14th Dec Delivery Schedule : 1) KS Lighting to deliver the sanitary wares & heater. 2) Aircon Installation 3) Ikea site measurements for kitchen cabinet.

Thanks guys for the replies and help!! For aircon, I probably will get the non-inverter,if possible with R410 gas. For Food.... oh my love..my lalings.. erm...so there is nice beancurd @ the market..lol i wish there is a 7-11 there though. cant wait to try all the food in the estate!!

Been a week since reno started and I only been there once.. to realise that the tree outside my house is being chopped and removed..... there goes my hammock plan and now the bus stop is of full view!! CHECKED Hackable items are hacked and disposed. (cabinets/sinks/doors) Due to hollow-ness of kitchen walls, those are to be hacked away after I gave the go-ahead. Old wiring are also torn down and awaiting replacement next week. Squat pan hole is covered and waiitng new sit bowl. PENDING Ikea reply if they will fix the sink w sink cabinet or my plumber can do it? Aircon! I prefer non inverter due to low usage but few salesperson told me non-inverter R22 gas will be obsolete in 2014/15? Non inverter come in R410 gas too right? Last but not least, I have yet to get my mahTong/sinks/lightings!!!! looking around for cheap cheap n good good lol..time to zz .. will be back soon for some update!

Ohhh..cos i never seen a tile-less kitchen before..so is kinda hard for me visualize. Esp when 3sides have tiles and 1 side where the Ikea base cabinet/sink is gonna be are "bald"? or maybe wat reno uncle tell me is some tiles pop out while i visualize whole stretch wall tiles came down!?!? I saw the catalogue too.. will hobble down testing personally..btw,..their svc no good,too pushy with sales??y u no get good experience fm them?? Will check the aircon,,, thanks!!!!

15th Nov 2011 : Day 1 Hacking of cabinets and stove/sink supports. Decide to pop by about 130pm to see the process which started in the late morning. Worker went for lunch so I waited at neighbour's house.... the indian worker only return at 330pm!?!?!? Glad to see the floor was laid with protection material, hall cabinets are already hacked off and the worker is starting on the kitchen cabinets. 1hr after I left, I received a call from the reno uncle, telling me the kitchen wall tiles are hollow. Seem like they crack/fall off when the worker is hacking off the supports.. No choice.. I ask them remove... now headache.. should i live with an tile-less wall or re-tile up half height. Not doing any carpentry in kitchen as I intend to get the base cabinets from Ikea. Guess better make a trip down tmr to take a look first and decide. Forgot to take pics when i was there
