  1. Hi NIL Could you give me the contact of your contractor? I been hunting high and low for someone to do vinyl flooring with no luck Thanks
  2. Have 3 rooms laid with vinyl/rubber tiles Now getting old. Thinking of ripping out all the tiles, clear off the old gum and just use cement floor . Maybe with a coat of paint on the floor Anyone has any contacts for contractor that can do that?
  3. Can you all PM me the contacts too? I need to find a carpenter to build a couple of wardrobes Thankyou
  4. Not sure whether they got carpentry factory or not. Could be that or could be carpentry in Malaysia one. Thats what we found during our research. I think some ID have their own carpentry shop in Singapore so more ex, others got it in JB so cheaper and of course others get outside carpenter Have you tried comparing the quality of carpentry work of the 2 ID? I think that would be more important -Celest
  5. You should be very safe in Steven hands My choked drainage pipe problem has been resolved successfully today. Plumber came down again , Steven also came down to make sure everything okay. Told me they will come at 11am but plumber came 10am before i even had my breakfast and started working on it After everything was fixed, the plumber and Steven ka kia all waiting outside for him, he was in my kitchen moping the floor for me!! I told him no need, he said wet not nice wait got foot print. so keep moping,. even washed the mop for me This is what I call superb after sales service
  6. Yippeeesssssss Problem solved!! Plumber came down with acid that melt stones/cement and metal only . Safe on plastic. Pour 1/4 bottle , wait a while..then flush a few times..even with the washing machine (just to make sure with higher pressure also go through) CLEARED!!!! Steven also came down make sure everything was okay. Thats super after sales service Now no need to wash floor after every laundry
  7. Can dislodge but the way the piping in our house was run, it makes it a bit diffcult to reach thats why we having problem dislodging You can see from this picture my hubby took after hacking. Got 1 smaller L shaped pipe connected to the main pipe. So the basin all directly go to the big pipe, the WM connects to that L shaped pipe. So the opening of the L shaped pipe in the big pipe is quite low whereas the basin one the all connect to the top of the big pipe. Think the clog is at the L shaped pipe. Thats why the plumber ask if can go to downstairs and open and clear. That pipe is HDB one so cannot be touched. I think maybe last time during hacking got stones drop inside but cause the WM drainage not regularly use so no one really go and check it . Anyway I check with my downstairs neighbours. Their pipe all boxed up and got a lot of stuff in the cupboards. I see already scare to even ask. Anyway steven say monday he will try to get his plumber pour acid drainage cleaner. See can melt some of the cement away then maybe can flush through. Cross my fingers skywolf, you can test your WM pipe now. Just connect a hose to your basin tap then the other end directly put into the WM drainage. If you turn on the water and it doesnt overflow out then should be okay Haiz..now worse come to worse I just buy a longer WM pipe to conenct to the existing one and lay to the bathroom. Would you all let the ID remove the cabinet and hack the floor if you were in our shoes?
  8. Max is good. He used to follow my ID Steven around previously but I think now he is on his own as I see Steven has a new follower Check out some of those done by Max in the blogs. I think Darrenelle or Hobbes was by Max
  9. One additional rating for Steven After completion service : 5/5 Wednesday after coming back from trip was doing laundry saw the water seeping out from the floor!! Immediately call Steven, about 1030pm . He said he will come down next day to check. Promptly next day 1230 he appear to check Today plumber came to try to clear. Failed even though he use the water snake pipes. Steven monday arranging for another crew to come and try to clear. Eventhough currently the choked in my washing machine drainage not cleared but I am very impressed with the prompt response from Steven eventhough it has been almost half a year since our hand over
  10. just discovered that our Washing Machine drainage pipe has been choked all along Previously we thought the outflow was too fast thats why keep overflowing fom the pipe, so bought a long pipe and force it in so cannot overflow..haiz sunday saw the water seep out from the floor!!! Thats when call Steven. He came down next day chop chop and checked . End up it seem like the drainage pipe was choked. He got his plumber come today. Plumber just left but still choked cause too many stones and stuff inside...sigh now must ask downstairs if allow us to open the drainage pipe from below ..if cannot...either hack or forget about using the drainage for washing machine Least the other drainage pipes are all still working very well ...haiz
  11. Yup yup still around. Move in to the flat liao hubby new PC dont have auto login renotalk I just remembered my password YEAH!!!!! Good good give in to temptation!! Pictures!!! I advise you do a 6 feet depth cabinet...my 5 feet depth one like not enough Totally filled up with hubby books, my hello kitty and bears
  12. If you wrap the trunking and water seeps in, because they are wrapped the water stay in between the wrapping and trunking and takes a longer time to evaporate. Will that cause the trunking to corrode even faster as it is soak in a wet enviroment a longer time? Wet and hot? Versus if it is not wrapped, any water is evaporated off quite fast?
  13. Does Max and Steven and the new guy still work as a team ? Or do they both now work independantly?
  14. Got your PM ..THANKS Sorry to hear your tap cannot use...what a waste Steven so good ah absorb some more You using Ikea curtain rods also , which one did you get ? The wooden one or the metal one? We using the wooden one, now hunting around for curtains. Just manage to find a few not too bad ones at reasonable price at TPY central. Whens your completion date?
  15. New place is good Already go there on weekends to laze and cook Cuizino hob and hood are all okay liao. Just once a while forget must hold 5 seconds on max setting before letting go ... The chimney sounds like a vacuum when we turn it on. Otherwise its quite good. Your dining table set is quite unique ...is that different color chairs? Btw what wood is the table made of? FYI, ours is from Wihardja , similar design, when we put a hot pot on it using those cork pot coaster, somehow it left a white patch on the surface Now we kia su already put 2 layers of coasters When is your expected completion date?

Cooked in the house twice liao, made tomato egg, toufu soup, long beans egg, pork stew.... FH say as long as he dont lao sai means okay Now left the oven havent tried to use and washing machine
  20. Might be a good idea to call up the ID or the company to asked about Most of the ID are running around from projects to projects, sometimes till quite late at night, so they usually dont read their email till they get back to office or home
  21. Sharp Aquos A33 is one of our choice too. Tai Sing at Toa Payoh is now selling A33 32" for $789 till end of June.
  22. Does anyone have contact to do Vinyl flooring? If you do could you I have it? My FH is desperately looking for one for his parents place. As they have it and its 30+ years old and he wants to replace it for his parents. I read this thread, so I thought I will ask for him since he is out of town Thanks -Celest
  23. Oh they choose Steven in the end....I was reading the blog wondering who was the ID Previous owner colour scheme is really unqiue to say the least!!! Cant wait to see how the new look is!!
  24. $1600?!?!?!?!? How big a bookcase did you ask for? 8 feet? Steven said our bookcase has been fabricated but the carpenter is so busy he has no one to spare to come and installed the bookcase at our place Ours was $1000 for a 5ft full height 50cm depth with half glass half wood door bookcase
