crazycar 0 Report post Posted March 4, 2008 Car,How much is your marble look wall tiles? Pardon my stupid question : the master & common toilet got box-up at the ceiling ar?For those chipped tiles, you didn't change them?Hi,If I remember correctly, I think it's $2.30 psf. The box-up at the toilets come original from HDB. Well, there were some chips. But after grout line filled, they are not obvious anymore. Moreover, most are at non-noticeable area e.g. behind my future mirror, vanity cabinet etc. So I'm living with it as I think having to re-do them may cause more problem.

Mainly PLC and fluorescent lights. But still come out to be $944! !! Then today went to bought switches that we are going to replace for the whole house. Bought this series...Quite cheap.... $1.40 for a 1-gang 1-way switch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
