Serangoon North Renovation By Defong Interior Design
getzski replied to Akitsuki's topic in Reno t-Blog Chat
there's no cheap or expensive paint...only branded or non-branded....lol. the expensive ones are those with all the extra additives, like non-odor, added teflon....etc. tell to your painters, and seek their opinion on how to get the textile you want. even if there is a top-up, it should be worth it.....you don't want to repaint after the furnishing is in the house. -

did you choose the matt color? dark colors are usually matt, not silky or shiny sheen. -

the first time i change, yes. i think i top up another 200 to re-paint to another color. the painters screw up big time with that color, and they then help me repaint to a 3rd color for free. -

heehee....byt seriously, even the dark tone (no change of color) has like 6 coats, and the painter has to add some base grey to the original paint to make it "darker". -

if there are many kids, you would rather they be living below your unit than above yours.....heehee.... i also close my dining windows between 4-8pm, in case the curry/belachan smells comes into my living/dining area. -

yup....baking soda and vinegar are my favorite friends. they are used to cooking, cleaning, deodorizing and much more. i try as much not to use commerical cleaners. when my neighbors fry belachan, i will boil a pot of water and add baking soda and vinegar. it deodorize the kitchen in a jiffy. it beats any air spray. -

display set or not, standard warranty still applies. i bought my 50" plasma for 999. every courts/denki/gaincity...etc outlet has a display set or two around...you just need to ask. some salesman might tell you, some will not bother. so go find a nice helpful chap before u ask. you can even try to bargain down another 10%.

these are fairly inexpensive if you know where to look. you will also need to plan it early so that the electrician and carpenter can create the correct layout/space for you.
