Im so excited cos we'll be collecting our keys tomorrow and will get our first view of the house @ blk 181.Btw, does anyone knows how long it takes for the contractor to finish laminating the floor ?we will confirm with our ID most probably by tomorrow and we hope that renovation will start this month.we have a few furnitures that need to be delivered by end of the month and we're hoping that at least one the flooring for one room will be ready by then for us to shift in all the stuff.. is this possible ?

strychnine 0 Report post Posted April 13, 2008 Hey Lin3X.We confirmed with Idealhouse yesterday. Reno should be starting pretty soon.Its no prob with the new funitures, in fact we're already requested to delay the furnitures til late May but for our existing furnitures that we wish to bring over to the new flat...that can't wait.Its either we find a temp storage/warehouse elsewhere or put it in the kitchen first where there's already existing tiles.But I guess both of you are right. Should consult with the ID first...Hey Felix,Why transparent ? I think this thread just need some time to get it 'happening'. Hehhe.Btw, I saw a reno notice on my neighbour's door just opposite our unit. I think they are about to start renovation on 18th April. Wonder if its anyone we noe in RenoTalk. Heee...

Lin & L3x 1 Report post Posted April 26, 2008 where chinese garden ? jurong west 300 plus there ah ?Felix, yeah. But I tink its called Jurong East St 31, Blk 353. Dun worry, Ideal House bring their customers to buy lightings there. Hi all, I saw that some of u requested for change of door from hdb. regretted not doin that... now that i have start doin my reno... is it still possible to ask for it now?Strawberri, I dun tink HDB will entertain, citing u have started reno. Cos Stry aso hav problem even to replace the hollow tiles. But u can still try. Anyway, the frame has to b hacked if change door after the tiles r laid. Very messy.. Duno how to explain. My blog got pic, u can c wat i meant. L3x Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
