Hi folks, does anyone has the same window frame as mine where there is muilt holes in the frame? I asked my contractor what are the holes for. He said is for the water to discharge but since my unit is corridor unit where the possibility of rain reaching my window is very very low and i dont wash my window by splashing water then i wonder what's the use of so many holes for. Somemore, they look ugly dotting along the frame and my concern is ant and small bug find it easier to climb into the house. A closer look at the hole I went around the block and found that those aluminum type either has the hole at the edge of the window or one per panel which still look okie. Couldnt find white coat window frame along the corridor unit. My contractor said his supplier do like that one so want to ask whether anyone has the same frame but with lesser holes? I want white power coat frame becos I thought is much nicer than the aluminium but if this is the case, i should get the aluminium type!

Hi, anyone has experience with spray paint and/or using epoxy paint (not sure they are 2 different tactics) on kitchen tiles. My kitchen is quite big and ID suggest that to save cost on doing re-tile. Appreciate any 1st hand experience on how it is. Is it durable? Easy to clean? So far any issues after painting the tiles? Appreciate if there is any photos.

Hi Songz, congrat on your new house and nice deco! How much does does your renovation cost? I'm also getting a re-sale 3 rooms flat and already started to look for ID/contractor so need some advice from you. Im torn between tile flooring and vinyl flooring as cost is one of my consideration. Is not cheap to hack the whole house flooring! Would like to know why do u chose vinyl flooring as some ID recommend not to use vinyl as they are not sure whether is 100% water proof. I like your dinning table and saw the demo video from TB, im wondering whether are the extended wooden pieces flimsy? Thanks in advance!
