Fifi 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2008 i have base for my kitchen cabinets and washer but no for the fridge initially debating whether to get base for washer... coz contractor told me i can just get wooden blocks to hold the washer up and that certainly is cheaper... but after much hesitation, we just go ahead doing base for the washer... not really a monkey see monkey do situation coz at least we did some consideration Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yokine9a 1 Report post Posted August 5, 2008 What is your purpose of doing the washer base? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fifi 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2008 for me, i think i will wash the service yard at least once a month. although i wont splash water as what the hawkers do, i dun want water to seep into the underside of the washer, causing it to rust... actually the contractor suggested using wooden blocks to hold it instead of the base but since it's at a corner of the service yard, it is actually ok to do the base. at least that is wat we tink lah... and we did not do exactly the shape of the washer... we did it across the width of the service yard... however, if just pure mopping, then the base is really not necessary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rumi 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2008 How do u then clean the base that is underneath the washer where it sits on? Push the washer down to the floor then clean and push up to the washer base again? Or no need to clean? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fifi 0 Report post Posted August 5, 2008 tink i wont clean it... probably will just mop around it :X alternatively, once in a blue moon ask hubby shift it up a bit and mop it :X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kastlekonfusion 1 Report post Posted August 5, 2008 Mop or Wash Kitchen Floor I'd choose the latter as I find it rather tiring to mop floor; rinse and wringer mop a few times to finish mopping the kitchen. And we do heavy cooking. Move fridge to clean area underneath fridge The empty fridge is already too heavy for me to push it even with the rollers, least talk about me moving the loaded fridge. I'm a fuss spot, typical Virgo but in this aspect, I won't want to go look underneath the fridge and bother ourselves too much over cleaning that area. Also, I won't want to trouble my darling to move it. Washer base Recently we had Fei Onn [one of the workers] over to extend the washer base as we had given the wrong measurement of the fat washer. With the extension, it is now easier to reach the top washer. As for cleaning the area underneath the washer, I'm not sure if I'd be much bothered to do that. If anything, I suppose I'm quite likely to hose that area. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
