Hello, Patrickson. Good luck to getting your keys next year!! Hello crystallim, kindly pm me for more details Apologies for lack of updates, had been busy with work lately. Gonna share more on the journey of the renovation. Went up to take a look on the reno, it was really very messy and things are everywhere, guess that's how it is. I know that my project is not a huge one due to tight budget, and my ID understand it well, therefore he proposed not to do plastering to save on some costs. He also propose that we can do overlay of the false ceiling, not tearing it down will save us some costs too. As for our 2 toilets, which shock me the most as the 2 toilets will be the most expensive rooms in the entire renovation due to hacking and re-tiling from floor up to 4 walls, after long hours of discussion and negotiating and almost giving up renovating the common toilet, ID suddenly came up with a good idea: overlay the toilet tiles too!! Indeed impressed with the patience he has after long hours of negotiating, at least manage to save some costs Some pictures to share: Also went shopping for accessories to the shop that my ID intro-ed, spoilt for choices. And after selecting all the necessary stuff like shower-head, sink, taps, shower accessories (without buying the unnecessary), the items amounts to almost $6k . Dropped a few items like toilet accessories, decided to raki around to buy cheaper ones, spent days walking around home-fix, ikea, big box and I couldn't find any good and cheap ones as substitutions. Those items at ikea are really cheap and affordable, but sadly they are really flimsy, i really do not want the thing to break only after using for less than a year. No doubt the accessory's shop products are really solid, in the end, got my ID to re-order the items that was dropped

Hi Janice, not sure where you are coming from. I am not here to do self advertising, not sure what you are trying to gain by intruding my post. I am just a regular home owner here to share with interested home owners on my own renovation journey. As a working adult and single mother, had been busy juggling work and the renovation at the same time, did not have time to post updates everyday. Finally had settled down quite abit and would like to share the experience here to interested home owners. Would appreciate if you could respect this thread, thank you. Since i am online, shall post some updates on my tiles buying day at Harfary @ Eunos with my daughter. Didn't know that tiles choosing was such a chore , it took us 5 hours to finally settle on all the necessary tiles: kitchen floor and wall, 2 toilets floor and wall, smoking corner floor (and yes, we self-proclaimed a smoking corner at the living room window because daughter is complaining of the smell in the house). ID wasn't free to join us initially, but after 2 hours of walking endlessly at harfary with ENDLESS CHOICES, we had no choice but to ring him up to come down to help with the selection. Here are our final selections: Shall head for bed now, will share more during my free time.
