After 1 week+, kitchen wall tiles are in progress

My work slowed down no difference since last Saturday. Only 1 tiling worker i/o 2 probably they have multiple jobs at a time. He said can complete 2 weeks to 3 weeks now I doubt so. Good luck my friend, wheres your new flat at, later I check your blog.

Thks. Yes the more rush u have the more errors and prcier. As I just need basic renovation, no design in place just my ideas here and there. Probably u need to move in soon,I guess a 3 room flat need 3 to 4 weeks at least for complete reno. U have to be ard to make sure they do what u expect or u can trust the ID. No experience with rainshower as I didnt use it and not installing. Your stuffs bought is place inside the new house? Not sure this will obstruct the works. So far hope u satisfied with our ID. I do not know about lightings at first but after read Renotalk and walk along Jalan Besar, I know there are shops like Lightings.com etc. Also - sell those ceiliing energy saving lights those rectangular squarish one like each ard 36W very bright than those round types 22,32,40W.

Hi Remy, Thks for visiting. I learn alot from Renotalk. I engage a contractor and he has his own friends do hacking and his own Msian tilers and granite stove. First day the hacking is done, followed by cementing etc. Yes hes fast say ard 2 to 3 weeks to complete. He follows HDB rule, Sunday off to avoid neighbours complaining noise although no hacking. Saturday is full day working:p Have u bought your toliet and kitchen wares etc I just saw your blog, u are hacking the whole house of course slower as I only kitchen and 2 bathrooms. For yours your workers do the floor bases first as mine is starting the wall first. Also no electrical rewiring for me.

After 5 days both toilets have wall tiles up and in progress

After 1 day of hacking, I went second day like most of debris has been cleared, waiting for cementing. Kitchen/Balcony Hacked Kitchen Toilet Hacked Master Bathroom Hacked

I have viewed several homogenous and ceramic tiles. Anyone has used them before, thks for any comments

Congrats:p I believe u have a good deal....So can spend abit more on your house renovation to your preference.

Theres this website selling Baron toilet bowls i think good promotional price. Pls see http://www.besttoiletbowl.com/promotion.php HoeKee also has some offers too fyi

Thks to all, seems this stain is like cheimical seep out of the tiles from a few contractors comments too. One said can easily hacked it and replace part like design for the balcony area since its nearer the door. Anyone knows that kitchen nowadays not using wall tiles as many condos designed this way?

Yes, thanks alot for your information :->

Thanks all, current 4 room flat is not well maintained due to renting out to 3 tenants. Saw your blog posting,congrats to your childhood dream coming true:p My initial plan is to redo the 2 toilets completely+kitchen cabinet and tilings, minor electrical works, acid wash, repainting etc. Idea is to budget and reuse existing fixtures as possible. I guess a budget cost between 10k to 15k should be reasonable. Thanks for some comments. Yes I will get a few contractors to estimate the quote soon. No need an ID I suppose as I do not need a personal customisation. Just a common simple design.

Anyone knows how to remove such stains? 1st appointment for purchase of flat : 1 Oct 2012 --> Completed 2nd appointmemt for purchase of flat: TBC Shortlisting Quotation from contractors in progress :
