Rune, for swing door is irex. Drawers now is taiwan ones, not happy with it, will change to blum one. I saw uncle soon last week and we requested to keep 4 tiles each

agree with your 4th and 5th. yes, we prefer speaking to ah soon too. our ratings: 10/10 - Hong Tar's aircon installation. Haha not relevant 9/10 - plumbing 8/10 - tiling 7/10 - carpentry 7/10 - plastering 6/10 - painting 5/10 - electrician, hubby said he can do better (he knows how to do) 5/10 - windows/main gate/pd door (alignment problems, chips) in addition, today we realized there are broken tiles/debris inside the kitchen glass door enclosure. we were like "duh".... edited because forget to put false ceiling rating 8/10

does ur wiw comes with the purchase or fabricated by ur contractor/id?

hiya, ur house is spacious and it looks like the previous owner has kept it in a good condition

all dealings we deal with ah soon (commercial and rectifications), other things like carpentry config, lights placement, electrical, false ceilings we deal with Jason i think ah soon shld replicate himself, someone who has a sense of ownership in this business and who can do a good project mgmt job should be the next candidate. hehe

i think we have to applaud ah soon, reno is bound to have hiccups, as much as we hate the time wasted we appreciate dearly that his promises to rectify the things we highlighted to him and is flexible on the configurations for a few things in the house. i can't say likewise if i will to engage other contractor or ID.

pinkpetter, i agree with you on the workers mentality, if we asked them to do extra work, they will grumble and end up we have to call ah soon. ah soon will then call to give them some ear, then they are willing to do. my hubby said all workers are like that, only when kena boss scold then guai guai do work lor. they don't think long term like a business man does. ah soon is a business man, he values his reputation above anything else.

smallboy, same sentiments. if they do it once and do it right, precious time and $ can be saved. My hubby and 've been taking turns to go there supervising for some things, it can be very tiring to shuttle in between.

hi rune, my soft closing is alright, just the opening of the drawers need bull strength. which track u using? the Malaysia one or taiwan one? One is in black coated, one is just sliver color.

hi precious, nice selection for the mbr tiles, the common toilet tiles are looking funky.

you should call Jason/Ah Soon rather than talking to the workers. i realised the workers will grumble or try excuses to not do extra work.
