Haha. hi lawry...yalor...this is a typical 3 room flat design 30 years ago...haha...initially i wana save some reno $ to keep the terrazzo flooring but my hubby objected! We bought this place is basically wana near my parent in law...as they are looking after my daughter in the weekdays (me a weekend mummy). This unit i bot is very expensive...but no choice...we like its location and near to amk hub/central, walking distance to mrt etc...paying a higher price for all these lor....

lawry 3 Report post Posted March 3, 2009 @roamca Do you mind if I ask how much it cost and $COV? Can PM me. My old place was right next to the MRT also, 5 mins away, but prices back then wasn't so expensive. Terrazzo is nice in a way, but a bit old fashion, I can understand your hubby's concern. Since renovating, might as well do it once and for all at one go, rather than have regrets later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My red & white kitchen? Yah, still going ahead with the colours. That's why chose white kitchen wall tiles to bring out the red cabinets loh. I'm not too sure when he's going to do my carpentry also leh. But if according to what he said, this week finish painting, next week should be polishing my marble floor. So I guess should be around end of next week, or the week after (3rd wk of March) then do my carpentry bah. Hee.. Yupz, u told me about ur delivery liao. The installation of those stuff super fast. Mine delivered early afternoon, and by end of the day, those that can be installed were installed liao. I think my rewiring took about a week. I rem it started early last week. End of last week end mostly finish. When we went there on Sunday, there was still a ppt outstanding, and some touch up to the electrical works were still needed. But the false ceiling/L-box was super fast. Completed within the day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

yokine9a 1 Report post Posted March 3, 2009 But what about the terrazzo skirting? Can you keep it & overlay with laminated skirting? I kept the terrazzo flooring in my living room too... maintenance wise, it is easier than laminated flooring... I just sweep & mop every week... don't need to bother on water spillage or grout lines... old fashion? Never mind, I am not young too Same for me... I also paid a very high price for my 3-room flat in TPY... 10 mins walk to central/MRT/bus interchange. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
