Received call back Wed evening to confirmed and Thursday morning they will come to rectify the problem. -Thursday/Friday they have managed to sealed external waterproofing all around. Good Job Fengshan SMC (East Coast GRC)

Hi Ks Toh, The previous pipes is so old, that I was thinking to wait for Hdb Home Improvement Programme to have change. However my Id highlighted that I was no point waiting as it is leaking. I thought of saving some $$$ but somethings are not worth savings, as such I post and say its definitely worth the $$$ to change. Hope I answer correctly.

Does anyone bought this before?

When is your renovation starts? Mine starts on 24th November and was promised to handover by 24th Dec. Good luck to us!

Sure do Lazyfatcat007, once the id updates me, I will update here.. Ohh btw why there's always hiccups during renovation... eg, "Oh, this tingy need to remove or change if not etc..." sounds familiar? On my Whatsapp grp, I do highlight on budget that at times... I cant stretch my budget... glad he understands.

ya, heard that newer Starmex are made in Thailand, the slightly old ones are from Japan. Still due to my tight $$$ I intent to get these... any reviews?

It's been about 2nd week now. Tiling of kitchen and toilet is up. Plastering of all walls is done. Need to do sealing. Next itinerary will be. 1. Electrical run/installation entire house. (was quoted $3.4K) did minus here and there to $2.8K 2. Lbox 3. Plumbing for water 4. Kitchen Cabinet 5. Installation of toilet bifold door/ wc/basin/heater and accessories 6. Laminate floor 7. Painting

Gooday Scarlett, Good to know the good news and congrats on your new house. Seems like when WE resale buyers try as much to save cost on what can be salvage, there's always conditions of items that are not able to be saved... I guess due to the conditions of resale flat that are 30plus yrs...and most of the contractors/Id's they want the best for us home owners to stay for long without back & forth.

when you have the means, anything is possible to what concept we want. Since I do have a budget, I just want to share my moodboard perhaps with the correct merchandise / furniturepretty much the same if I were to achieve as my moodboard.

Good Morning t-bloggers, Does anyone knows how much just to change Main door knob? Pricing from low to highest. TIA

Pretty sad to say goodbye to old house. It's been a good 7yrs.

work in progress so far so good.

Beginning of the Work In Progress, Me and my ID setup whatsapp grp, so that he can update me daily progressing. So everytime he update me I update here la.. Looking good.. pretty fast looks like i'll be sleeping smiling.

From my experience, when renovating resale flat, there's always hiccups after one another. This is the old Piping. As much I want to salvage, save some $$$ and wait for Hdb Home Improvement Programme, The plumber highlighted that it's leaking and definitely have to change. What to do... change lor... Quoted $850 for changing all Piping : Kitchen and both Toilet. After changing to new pipe. Is it worth it? Definitely.

Thanks ricepapergirl. Though it's fast as a customer we still have to QC their work and they have managed their time wisely. You renovating your house anytime soon?

Productive leh so far this ID. With time management and things are on schedule. Hope there's no hiccups.

24th - 26th November Hacking 26th - 27th Cement and Stuff came

http://www.nipponpaint.com.sg/colours/colour-paint-chart/colour-my-world/earthy-neutrals-greys/2108/clamshell-3161/ as budget is very tight, initially wanted to have wall coverings for living/dining area, Instead we choose Nippon paint clamshell color instead. was quoted $1.6K for the wall coverings with installations for living/dining area (not bad). maybe KIV

After back and forth with the ID, these are the final and confirmed drawings.

Bought 2 sets of these at HoeKee for $99each. Was told it's copper pipe...

Does anyone owned Sona Air Cooler? Any reviews on this product? TIA Aircon is too expensive. My family and I are so use to fan, but we still take Aircooler KIV.
