[spinball 0]

haha... they are discussing on Monday how to run the trunking... to run trunking thru toilet takes alot of time and effort, plus not an easy task.... guess that most of the installers will choose the easy way... chop chop finish.... wondering how our 4th floor neighbour does their trunking.... they are pretty fast.... but hor... haha... they did something illegal for their kitchen base....

great idea to run e trunking through e toilet as well...

maybe i should ask my Allbest installer to pop by ur house tis coming thursday to see how ur installer run e trunkings as they will be installing e aircon units on tat day...

Some quick update on our renovation progress.....

Was abit surprise that one of my gf's dad worker came to work for painting today...

1. Painting for all bedrooms are completed. (Photo will come later when protective covers are removed... )

2. Painting in progress for living/dining area not yet done.... they are painting ceiling today..... expected to complete on Wednesday.

3. The windows grill lady and guy came to take measurement today... hmm... when I told them the design we wanted, they suggested that we change to another design, that is horizontal one only because our windows is small??

Design we wanted:

Suggested Design:

Anyway, was told that the downlight we wanted is out of stock... Got to wait until March then the stock will come.... Not only that, most likely our carpentry will not start until early march as well.... because the carpentry guy still got another major project going on..... can't do us first.... haiz...

my contractor told me tat cos our window panes r those smaller 1s tats y dont take too complicated designs, it will also restrict e light coming in and make our flat darker...

hmm... ya... but we really dun like that "prison" window grills.... not because of the design but due to the fact that the "prison" window grills dun have enough "strength"... break easily....
