Thanks ocean eleven, we spoke to Jason and will be meeting with him on Tuesday. Hopefully they have a wider range of vinyls to choose from as the price is really good. The tb bench link http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=37663393087 Popped by the flat ( just behind wife's place) to see the cabinets have been hacked and cardboard flooring have been laid. Excited to see the walls being hacked next so we can visualize our space better. Many of our design ideas have changed because we have a playful corgi who loves chewing wood. She pooped in our mbr and the contractor said Huat Ah lol. Thankfully our contractor has two dogs of his own so he does give us feedback on our furniture etc.

Hi ocean eleven, my wife told me you used krono and we went twice to the show flat at eunos but it was closed. We even called the hill view office but no one answers, do you have the mobile number of the salesperson? Thanks in advance. We do not have the full quote for the reno yet but our contractor said carpentry will cost us 14,000 whilst the rest is about additional 10k more.

Below are some of our Tao Bao purchases.

while waiting for the reno permit to be approved and getting the keys for the house, we have been shopping every weekend for the house. below are the items we have bought. dining table from star living coffee table, we purchased it thinking the top white part was detachable but it isn't. franc franc fabric sofa. love at first sight for the wife. she now regrets it and wants an L shape sofa to "nuah" in. :bangwall: we are using La Vie Vinyl flooring for our bed rooms...we went last month a the salesperson quoted us 5.50 per sqft. today we went back to book an appointment a different consultant told us the pricing was 5.95 per sqft! I went home to dig out the pamphlet in which the first guy wrote down the quote and texted him to meet us this Wednesday. Will let the contractor speak with him but he better stick to the price he gave us earlier if not ..... La Vie is found at Floorxpert which is just opposite Hafary. Our hacking will commence this Thursday - would like to check if we need to call City Gas or HDB to shut down the gas supply as contractor said no need? Also any good bedroom door suppliers to recommend as we will be changing the internal doors.

Hi All, We are looking to hack away the bedroom wall to combine MBR and the adjacent bedroom. Adjacent bedroom will be a walk in wardrobe cum study. All toilet tiles and kitchen flooring and walls will be hacked as well. The theme we are looking at is more towards scandi style. The wife bought a patchwork green sofa from Franc Franc. We have done furniture shopping at Comfort Design, Star Living and Taobao ( wife ordered 1000 sgd worth of lights and household items + a vacuum robot recommended by fellow renotalker ) As our door opens up to reveal the living and dinning area ( part B) our contractor recommended using A as dinning but we want a comfortable shoe cabinet space with a sit down area to put groceries etc after shopping so will probably put dining at Part B as Songz suggested Will be posting more pictures up, but we are looking to spend max SGD32,000 for this reno .

As a brief, our unit is a 5 room flat in punggol. It is a 10 year old unit in great condition. Previous owners kept it very well. Everything regarding the sale has gone well so far and our final appointment will be end may. We signed the indemnity forms and renovations will take place a few days before hacking commences.

Hi, fellow renotalkers. This is my first experience posting topic here and arguably still a green horn. I really appreciate comments and suggestions for reno ideas. So, perhaps I start off with a floor plan below. 1. As you probably can see our main door is actually facing the kitchen entrance (bad fengshui). Any suggestions to counter that? 2. There is also this awkward area in the living room marked 'A' which we do not know what to do with it. We have thought of placing dinning table either at A or B. Either way, there will be empty area which we do not know what to do with it. Hope to hear some suggestions. thank you

Where do you get the sliding/folding door near the balcony? And how much?

Hi, any recommendation to shop for toilet basin and toilet bowl. thank you

hi greg can let me know where you went to get the kronos vinyl laminate? we went to floorxpert but they only carry an inhouse brand- la vie at 5.50 psf. another thing is regarding your taobao faucet any issues with installation? need any connectors or everything is included in the order? thank you!
