  1. dun think so coz already level up the balcony my mum's idea coz she scared will trip and fall down will go and beg for a divider instead
  2. no lah, just that i mistook a forummer as a guy before so now better double-check and confirm for our block, the full-ht windows are located at BR2 and BR3 those only 6th flr up have coz mine corner unit so all windows look outside the block coz mine is NEW flat and the tiles already cmi hdb hacked and relay for me loh, now going to finish laying liao but i topped up for porcelain tiles lah, dun want ceramic coz too fragile liao then after finish laying, another round of inspection to see if stained kitchen/toilet tiles can be cleaned or not. if cannot another hack-and-relay process. WCs also... and you know HDB is famous for their speed !! if you interested to see the tiles can just go up 7th flr, walk to the end of the corridor is my unit liao. strongly recommend this type of tiles i love my tiles
  3. the balcony door already destroyed by the contractor, as in annihilated! really solid leh, such a big door also can reduce to nothing
  4. me also parked some away only paid the requisite 20% downpayment didn't want to take 30yrs coz find interest payment per month too high liao not forgetting got to pay more premium for the DPS so paying $1.1k per month but my cpf contribution slightly less than 2/3 of it heng parked away quite a bit so can tahan at least 4 - 6 years, depending on my bonus amt hopefully when this is exhausted my cpf contribution should be enough to pay the installment liao if not then i will make some capital repayment to reduce the monthly payment when my insurance matures in two years
  5. i shall go and beg borrow steal one instead as it is, dun know go where find money for some reno items esp the stupid grilles which is really gonna cost
  6. why you say i rich? think i'm the poorest liao loh pay for the renovation until i have no more pocket saw a double-sided embroidery at fefco (actually is the advertisement in the newspaper) and was so tempted but didn't dare go down and check it out, afraid i will 冲动 then got to pay bank 24% interest liao
  7. actually i'm looking at those canvas type too saw one that prints on acrylic but the price never mind, i shall put my creativity and artistic streak to test coz everybody say left hander should be more artistic
  8. initially want to take the 6th flr one, but the neighbours like not very friendly and the corridor very cluttered so went for 7th flr instead not doing grilles for the full-ht leh, just doing for the upper part. lower part cannot open so no need (to me lah) coz my main concern is my babies, as long as they can't go out it's fine... actually my unit quite cheap leh, $305k nia took a 25yr loan so monthly installment is close to $1.1k heng got make a little bit in the stock market with my cpf so just enough to cover
  9. oh okay, shall ask my FSM get me something behind also
  10. just kidding lah thank you thank you really feel blessed to have my own place
  11. hehehe, point of contention again so block the bottom half nia or block the whole thing??? acherly hor, all these questions will be answered by the FSM i engage right? so i will just go and engage a FSM to solve all my 'problems' thank you everybody for your help you have just convinced me that i really need a FSM coz my sis keep say i'm wasting money to engage one
  12. yes yes i totally agree with you. btw you mean should be able to right? but hor, other than the price of the flat is near the reno and sofa price is way too high liao lah my reno think $10k excluding furniture and appliances sofa cheap cheap $1,099 nia on a serious note, will definitely consult a FSM coz i really want peace of mind when i move into my new place it also signifies a new stage of my life - i finally have my OWN PLACE. yahoo!!!
  13. me on seventh floor, coz my sis die die want the full-ht windows pay $5k more just for that
  14. hahaha, sure will take care of you can i call you xiao di di? or are you xiao mei mei? i know my block got 4-rm coz my super friendly neighbour is staying in 4-rm think the unit tour will take place around aug this year on a weekend bah still can't confirm yet coz it'll all depend on when hdb is handing my keys back to me unless we do it whilst my unit is still under reno lah maybe jaren's unit will be done before mine
  15. oh like that ah, then must be expensive liao loh me already busting my budget by 150% liao from $10k now escalating to $20+k and still counting believe that the pix will look very nice on your walls should go ahead and do it
  16. erm the 9 squares should fit over the entire unit right? so the top most line is the study wall hor? jia lat leh, if like that the left bottom corner square bottom half is missing like that consider missing corner liao or not?
  17. orgh okay then must go find those ping feng liao hopefully won't block the wind too much thanks
  18. btw which flr you on? interested to join our unit-tour or not? weird previous owner leh, didn't do any reno how to live?
  19. paiseh paiseh my bad... it's the same direction as the compass things i.e. enter door is facing north and looking out MBR window facing west that makes the SW kinda missing right? think must really get a FSM to take a look liao
  20. argh!! so many things to consider just spoke to patrick about the window grilles and he brought home to me the point that if i were to do squarish grilles with 3" gaps it'll be super ugly :~ he'll try and find if anyone has the ampli-mesh stock coz no one is importing it anymore due to low demand...
  21. hi can take a look at my floor plan? is SW missing as well? me the lady owner, only owner at that then how???
  22. even at for slightly bigger than 1m x 1m, it's still acceptable price mural definitely cost way above that your 100+ is + how much ah? maybe i can do something like that for my place also
  23. wah like that no wind liao loh another question - does the partition have to be opaque or can have those with no solid blocking (like the ikea bookcase)?
  24. 100+ per print for how big? if enough to cover one wall is consider very cheap liao leh find that it's a picture that conveys a certain kind of mood but depending on the theme of you home, may or may not match
  25. ya loh, thinking of timber or mosaic coz it'll be something different as you can see, my thinking is the very old-school type the contractor said might charge extra coz my tiles are big and he dun have the equipment to cut so need to get someone else to cut loh already charge me $400 extra to lay the bigger tiles liao leh if he really want extra then i'll just use timber or mosaic had wanted some mosaic in my new place but dun know where to put might as well use as skirting can't, coz the tiles are not cut very evenly so need the skirting to cover
