yes yes! the new lemon law came to my mind too! but need to wait till Sept to be effective and what the law really covers. It's gonna be very tricky to define things for both consumers and sellers.

huh...... erm... he is paid do what he is supposed to do. I believe if he is professional enough he should do what's right. No nd to bribe or teah lea..

hiak hiak hiak

Sorry!!! Didn't realize was commenting using neo's account apologize for the confusion. The previous 2 comments are made by me instead.

CAKES!! wahahahaha awesome!

LMAO you so cute!

we worry cox our furniture(S) and all the items ordered stuff will all come in on Monday le. Didnt want to spoil anything keeping fingers crossed!!!!!!!!!!!! wish us luck man Add - I just realise you say me look young!!!! thankiew~~~~

not say rudely la. Probably sound more like not taken seriously. But maybe also can be he may not be good in communication... haha after discussion w Neo. I send whatsapp alrdy saw 2 ticks = he receive and read... but he just didnt reply... wahahahahahahahahahaha nothing to say hoepfully if his colleague see le will help to advice him to improve bah. i am trying to be reasonable, hopefully we will not be pushed too far. i very scared now cox now like that and Sat is hand over

me me me!!!!!! we come as a package, so 2 pax pls ! hehehe

sigh... idk but seriously, maybe depends on person but i felt the way he talk to me machiam fu yan, not taking me seriously after i call him up upon looking at the house today. Even when i mentioned cracked walls, he said tiles actually hard, so is impossible to not have crack.. so he have to check on this... i'm like HELLO! The paint work looks rushed & the $140 we paid to fill up the gap between wall and trunking doesnt look professionally done, or rather to the expectation. Furthermore, painting works seems to have completed but some spots like, again rush and not covered properly. enough said, thou date line is till friday, which he mentioned we can drop by coz everything would be done... we shall see whether all these will be delivered as promised. *benefit of doubt k* sigh...

hahahahaha sorry! i realize 'speak' rather singaporean LOL

Chemical wash for what i know when i spoke to the contractor is that for the wall tiles and floor, after the wash some of the fillings may peel then they will fill it back. For skirting wise, am not sure but you may want to check with your contractor if in a case of such, would they rectify for free or smtg. Cox i'm aware that those better quality de may or may not experience that, depends on the workmanship de. Hope i help. very 2 cents de coz not as experienced hehehe but yours looking good le! 1 mth very fast one! that time we were saying take 2 months, but look where we are alrdy hiak hiak enjoy this journey k!

hmm quality ok, but the workmanship rather disappointing. Like very "rough" , the work. hahaha but contractor like also surprise this carpenter delivery work like that. he said not the standard for him lea. so hopefully they will rectify it. We went down on sun and gonna pop by again to see lo *FINGERS CROSSED*

wahahaha Pain In The ZZZ

oo! your casement is like build in kind! so wont look so bulky hor! nice! initially got the though of doing so too, but might nd top up if more hacking included, so didn't suggest.. hahahaha your reno looking good! All the best yar!

yup only 1 cabinet. but the problem is it is made in a way where its like 1 unit with 2 doors. Thats why contractor say cannot rectify.. we also very excited to see everything nice and clean after acid wash soon ! hahahaha now i understand how the rest of you all feel. the journey seems long if were to look back yet very short coz always counting down the days to see final product

so you end up never use la? think your wife smart la. Reno little little things add up an be rather a big sum. Not many of us can afford, even if can, frankly speaking hor, maintainence can be a really PITA lea.. . so economical abit Why not start your own t-blog now? i see you already have much photos and ideas that other bloggers/future house owners can learn from your experiences, which is the purpose of this blog This is a friendly t-blog on Lukie's home so hopefully let us all be a little considerate

sorry folks, accidentally replied using NeoBY's acct. Anyway just a quick update... the kitchen cabinet cannot be rectified and thus looking for other alternative to place the rack inside it. At the moment is kinda stupid to have a pull out rack to need to walk around the cabinet door to take sauces while cooking right..... sigh.... gonna let the contractor propose liao. On a cheerier note, we are informed that chemical wash is on thur & by fri be clean clean !

ooo.. i see.. thank u~

Just to check with with you, does your reno include chemical wash? if u add acid wash won't it be too strong for the tiles and stuff?

Hi Valerie, you may want to take a look at the last picture. That is taken with all the down lights off. Only pendant light is on. It's more cozy feel, but it is bright for us coz its warm lighting

Looks awesome! but the gap between the old trunking doesn't seem filled. The contractor charged to fill all the gaps right?

i agree. Neo's reno seem to have other cost like trunking plastering, door knob change, though doesn't seem like much but add up also few hundred plus liao... Another question... is it common for contractor detached / remove window grill to do tiling.. but charge $ to fix it back ?

Renovation all talks $ mah... they dont rob you (us) now then when wor...

Oh is that why you ask May_dream how she adjust to find the suitable temp? hmmm didnt know gas heater like that lea...
