I itchy itchy read about quartz, the thread about silestone in reno. So quite interested in the material since very much like granite. tough and durable but non porous like solid top. Only problem is color not as pretty as granite lo. But the properties of being maintenence free.... so i adventurous abit ask ID to source this material as my kitchen/vanity top. ^_^; Prayign hard this quartz dont fail me sia.... :X Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only good point is no need maintenence ba Initially i oso wanted black galaxy. But like every1 doing granite top sure use that sia. So i thinking something diff and wanted blue pearl. Coz very nice too ! However i oso think the color wont fit in my kitchen theme oso ahahaha ! Wah ptbgal using white pearl ? so fierce ah ! Granite is porous material wor. If not maintain it well it will absorb the liquid and might stain the top de wor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My current place is using black solid top, wow the scratches are so obvious and my fren's white solid top already turned yellow after only 4 years of stay. I heard white top not as bad as black, maintainance wise must really use some effort lor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rierie 0 Report post Posted July 6, 2009 (edited) Went up to our home during lunch time just now (and I forgot to bring my camera! *faint*) Was surprised to see the painter there. Saw all the rectifications that he did for our walls. Super happy! Satisfied! No more pimples and wrinkles! Although not all was rectified cuz it's too minute, we decided to let it go. what more shd we expect when Eric is not charging us? Heehee.. SSC guy came today and installed my tap! Woohoo!! Now my tap is nicer than my htb’s tap. Muahahahaha…will take pics the next time I’m there. Edited July 6, 2009 by rierie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
