  1. Your contractor is going to use the toilet. No choice.
  2. think HLE not required during the appt but no harm to call HDB and check it out.
  3. 1. Yes 2. Overlay 3. Did not do I saw, only after my reno completed, that u can request ur id to seal the gap between ur wooden cabinet and the concrete base. To avoid any unwanted stuff/insects get into the gap.
  4. refer back to my previous post, coolbunny did hers at $1200. an ID friend told me $1600.
  5. i bought quite a few of suction hooks and racks via ezbuy, many of them cant hold for long and keep on dropping. saw from ntuc selling this brand: garbath. I bought one of the hook via ezbuy and it never drop once. Not sure if I am just lucky or this brand is good. but of course buying from ntuc is more ex then buying online. just for your reference. if u r sure of the location and get good material, drill is of cos a more stable and permanent arrangement.
  6. better to do cleaning yourself first. but then professional painter will paint a few coat and patch the wall first.
  7. ask for breakdown and unit price and compare by unit price cos every one reno differently. for carpentry, use an example of $250 per sq ft, your living room 6m = 18ft = $4,500, bedroom 2m = 6ft = $1500. overlay will depends on what type of tiles you choose, use an example of $4 per sq ft, you can compute yourself. fridge and washer will not take up the carpentry space but if u need a base, then there will be cost to it. toilet, you can check with ankle and greenbunny how much are their toilet cost for switching.
  8. I wipe dry my glass shower screen every time after shower... >_< I think weight will be the issue.
  9. Hi Rustynail, you might want to address your question to a specify member if not we do not know who you are asking. In case you are asking me, my fan is from Samaire and wind quite strong. I only on it at low or medium and only when many friends are here then I switch it to high, which is only once. My light is from Light & Bathroom Solutions Pte Ltd and it is very bright but of course got different size for you to choose.
  10. these are not the same as end product esp the bedroom.
  11. the only furniture i bought are bed frame and dining table + chairs. they need to install so got lots of time to check. but I only saw some defects on the bed frame after they left. so i took picture and send it over to them. they replace it. but need to inspect and test out any functionality b4 sign received lah.
  12. cant help on loan details. but how much reno loan is depends on how you want to reno. basically the range we had here is around 15k to 30k. but then since apply for loan already, try to go lean bah. i m using, no issue.
  13. bought a samsung wm from gain city, no problem on tap. only thing is need to buy "stool" to elevate the wm so that water will flow out.
  14. existing hdb bathroom shd have slight slope towards the floor trap too. but ya, i think u can overlay to get a steeper slope. but the kerb is also where the glass screen sits. so if the glass screen sits directly on the floor and use silicon to seal it, i am not sure any issue over long run or not. you might want to research more or talk to the expert.
  15. oh, u meant u had left a gap for your fridge so u need to know the size of the fridge? my fridge is about 60cm. i think your gap need to have 60cm + 10cm + 10cm (10cm on each side) is enough as most 2 door fridge is about this width.
  16. if u hv false ceiling, then your neighbours shd have false ceiling too. guess the contractor think that since it is hidden, then dun need to touch up nice nice. if u wanna remove the false ceiling, then maybe they can help you to scrap off those extra cement. but if u expect them to remove the false ceiling, scrap off those extra cement and then still put back the false ceiling, i doubt they will do it. but no harm to ask lah.
  17. @greenbunny cos I have been waiting for a new train station in between the existing cck and bt gombak station which was rumoured that there will be one in the future but i think it is a gone case now. but luckily now with the new JRL, i got a cck west station which is about 2 bus stop away and i think walkable distance. btter than nothing.
