applefreak 1 Report post Posted January 7, 2008 (edited) you using ID or contractor?if ID she should bring you go choose tiles mahbut if contractor then it's up to yourself what kind of tiles to choose liaoi'd recommend balestier rd, near ah hood rd opposite balestier primary (secondary?) schoolthere's a row of tile shops - LSH, Hafary and Hup Kiong, not forgetting a shop that seems to specialise in natural stonesyou can get a rough idea of what each shop offer then make another trip to the bigger showrooms to make your final choice as for getting the tiles, just give the shop name and tile model no. to your ID and she'll get it for youthey get kickbacks in such deals Edited January 7, 2008 by applefreak Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
