SW80 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2009 wah. the progress chart so familiar. seeing it gives me the creeps. remind me of work undone in my workplace. so u bought anything from genova, chuan heng or royal fanco? Not yet, We just did some product viewing and price comparison. Basically we have a clear idea what to get. Royal Franco won us over. We are surprise and pleased with what we saw. I can't confirm whether he is really good until we did the actual ordering and delivery. Only then, I will review our "homework to all". Hee Hee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
guy77 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2009 i think royal fanco is good as i saw from other threads in this forum. some bought from them also. went down to look at the kdk fan that i wanted to buy that time. not bad the service. but due to the laziness in me and the convenience sake, i bought my lightings and fan from my neighbourhood lighting shop and toilets things from genova.

SW80 0 Report post Posted May 20, 2009 (edited) Hacking starts!!... Air con guy came to dismantle old air con, leaving some big holes for the connections.. I have run through the connections and found them hiding in the false celling and link towards the walkway where I did not want to hack. Not sure how they are going to do the reconnections.. Kitchen hack down, except for the wall tiles where we intend to plaster them over to save cost. Toilet is next, except for the front wall, where workers intend to hack through to connect to service balcony. To be done tomorrow. Master toilet. The real pain comes from these ugly piping after we dismantle the cabinet originally conceal them. The original design will going to be different and likely it is going to be hard to blend our shower head with the overhead carpentry. I will discuss with ID to seek for solution...

Metalsubzero 0 Report post Posted May 20, 2009 Congrats!! Wah, seems like one day of ur hacking about the same work as my 2 day of hacking liao.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SW80 0 Report post Posted May 21, 2009 More photos. Partition and kitchen wall hacked off. Left the service balcony pending to hack. Permit still not approved yet. Strange.. Now the area looks much spacious. This will be our ideal see through kitchen and connecting the kitchen with service balcony as one. There are still some debris to clear off, will need the third day to tidy up. Hope service balcony permit can approved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SW80 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2009 your progress looks good...alot of debris to clear...have you try calling HDB yourself to push for it? Just got an update from ID. This particular wall that we want to hack is actually a reinforce concrete, consider a criteria structure and requires some professional engineer's review and endorsement before hacking. That will comes with an additional $214 bucks for that endorsement... We decide to make to do without hacking it by improvise to built some L-shape wall to conceal the pipings. Plastering work will start today. All the tiles have arrived and most likely by end of next week I can show more photos on the finishing work.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SW80 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2009 Some photos to share with all, tile laying, day4 Sealed up the kitchen entrance and common toilet entrance facing the room to create a passage way. For us to put up photographs in the future. Master toilet, floor tile still not completed yet. Master toilet side window hacked. We really find the toilet too dark therefore we decide to hack it bigger for more lights. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SW80 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2009 (edited) Our red common toilet, floor tiles not done yet. Some small details on the water piping. I can say the tilers are really neat for getting the cutting and dimensions right.. Kitchen piping from the sink to the drainage line.
