shutiao06 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2008 toothytooth, sorry to miss u out hmm ya the air planes sound reali quite loud. but i guess no choice, gota get used to it. sooner or later shld b used to it liao. but i'm sure the planes wont b flyin til so late at nite..so at least we wont b disturbed by the time we r back from work hee.ya, i also have prob wif my grouting. when i used my finger to rub against the "new" grouting, the powdery cement thing wil get rubbed off. then seems like no matter how many times we clean the floor, stil got this powdery feelin one. already feedback to bsc..last sun went down seems like it's better..cos thur when we went down c them helpin us to mop the floor ha. asked the bangala he said after the wash if we stil not satisfied, then go tell bsc again. but now i use my finger to rub seems like wont come off liao. mayb need to wait for it to settle down or be mopped off.. then like tat like defeat the purpose of re-doing it.

popeye gal 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2008 Hi all neighbours,Do anyone engage the contractor of our estate, Idian worker(arasan) to do the Painting & varnish work for your house? they quote cheap, but have to buy our own paint. Any comments on their workmanship, for those who engage them to paint your house? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hey samluvbliss, i stayed in Jurong for the past 13 years, just shifted away, dun worry about the air plane sounds, you will get used to it, in future, it can zoom pass so many times and you still sleep like a log.. Even my 1 year old nephew now sleep through the sounds.. There will also be a cocoa smell from the chocolate factory that most pple either love it or hate it.. Sometimes in the afternoon you can smell the cocoa smell.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commando 0 Report post Posted March 22, 2008 I haven't been doing anything to my house because I've been too busy over the past few weeks (plus 2 weeks of ICT) so today, I finally decided to settle as many things as possible! Bought 13 cans of paint, ordered my kitchen sink, hob, hood, storage heater. As I drop by to put the paint, noted that the kitchen cabinet base has been laid. Can't wait for the next phase.

I only agak-agak:2 x 20 L litex for 2 layers for the entire house walls including ceiling1 x 1 L for door frameThe rest are 5 L of various shades for 2 layers for the entire house walls and ceilingHi teodami,yes I will be painting it myself. Will probably rope in friends too. The contractor did offer the paint job for about $900 but I don't know what kind of paint they will be using since the paint already cost me $600+. Moreover, i intend to paint 2 layers of litex before the actual colors. That is to ensure better effects when the actual colors are applied. I think the contractor will probably jump straight to the actual colors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
