zerochristy 0 Report post Posted June 15, 2009 (edited) Works have not started: Done-Varnish/touch-up works Main door 3 bedroom door & door frame Shoes cabinate Cabinate under window (Family & Study Room area) Some Skirting Replacement Acid Cleaning If I calculate should be today... Hmmm I got second thought as some of varnish/touch up works not completed yet. Done-Parquet Floor Sanding & Varnishing Uncle mention that would be tomorrow start sanding, than follow by varnishing and leave to dry for 1 day if better 2 days. Done-1 face plate for cable under the TV feature wall Done-MBR Wardrobe Handle Rectifying List: MBR Bathroom - Change pipe to SS and change under the sink piping to SS Done Fan Regulator - Did not install. We told uncle yesterday and uncle want to escape again... we told him NO NO we buy the fan w the regulator one and its delivered together so MUST install. The very first time we saw his electrician he also mention that he will install the fan regulator under the switch so its Uncle's Business now. I told hubby if uncle want to be funny and escape again and call hubby tell uncle and call me.... I will scold uncle Common Bathroom - Extend a/c pipe to waste hole (this is left down by ex owner) Done Serivce Balcony - (PS: We purchase soft closing hinge fm Shanghai Tong Lee) Cabinate soft closing hinge have not been install. Cause carpenter say not enough. We did our sums correctly than I went to our MBR and check on the wardrobe hinge (our MBR wardrobe is being mading and install by uncle)... and I am correct they use some of our soft closing hinge to install in the wardrobe. So we told uncle we buy enough for the house and now got some missing but I went to the wardrobe and check partial soft closing hinge is ours. He call the carpenter and yes they use our hinge... so they will replace back for us. But one part I am glad is that till now we only paid 10% of our package price so I can still demand lots of things else I hold his money Edited June 17, 2009 by zerochristy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
