Hey Keropi,

temporary keep e unwated new fittings somewher (shelter or locked rm).

If u confirmed wont b using e items, can consider sellin them now at discounted rate.

If not, wen e reno is near complete, u may wana sell e items then.

e risk 2 take note is dat e items u r storing temporary is kinda many & bulky, it may b lost or damage durin e process, & may even slow dn e reno progress.

u can post here ->

RenoTalk Forums > Post Renovation Forums > Garage Sales & Exchange Corner

hi neighbour,

hope not to late to spam here. nice selection of tiles. you consider fast already. we went to lian seng hin 3 times, spending a total of 6 hours, before finally concluding our tiles.

BTW we are also relaying all our kitchen and toilet tiles. One thing you may want to take note of is that after overlaying, your kitchen floor will be higher than your living room. That is why my ID suggested to us to hack the kitchen floor instead of overlaying.

Hi crazycar, according to our ID hacking of kitchen tiles is not permitted by HDB which is why we overlay the tiles. How did u manage to get approval to hack kitchen tiles & how much is the hacking fee? Yes, ID did highlight that kitchen floor will be higher but he could help us level it wif living room floor however may need to trim all the bedroom doors. Do you have this requirement as well?

hi,

are those tiles from Hafary? i think i saw them there. Btw, i took about 3 hrs to select tiles (including smoke and coffee break...haa......) so tired after that.

cheers!

Halo msmurf,

No, all from Lian Seng Heng (LSH). We went to Hafary at first but nothing could catch our eyes there so ID brought us to LSH next door and indeed LSH has more variety & better looking tiles.

Nice nice nice tiles!

I bet your flooring tiles cost you quite a huge amount!

Finally settled our tiles selection yesterday, 22Feb. The selection process can be kinda tedious especially with the wide array of tiles to choose from. In the end, we lingered in the tiling shop for more than an hour before deciding on the tiles we like.

Living & Kitchen Floor Tiles

Common Washroom Floor & Wall Tiles

MBR Washroom Floor & Wall Tiles

Bomb Shelter Floor Tiles

hi,

i also dunno. my id says can. so i double check n indeed i only signed undertaking form for not hacking toilet wall n floor tiles for 3 years and HDB has approved my reno permit for the hacking.

for me i cannot level the living and kitchen flooing if i do overlay bcos of the stupid bomb shelter door which is at a very low level. not such if this is just a problem for me though. maybe your unit is different.

Today was at Hafary, took 1 sample which I really love to have it on my kitchen tiles...rustic feel, brownish colour....

she showed us a few then we just chose from there so in turn cut short the long selection process.

Hi blueToffee,

Thanks and best of luck to your reno as well Are you staying in 25B too?

Currently our tiling job is almost complete except for laminate flooring to start next Mon! All I can say is, we're quite satisfied wif the tiling workmanship so far other than a little hiccup at the beginning of reno.
