beany0811 1 Report post Posted September 24, 2009 (edited) sofa pics our sofa cushions have arrived! great and prompt service by our cushion provider - found their pricing very reasonable too - decided on them after comparing 3 quotes - not that many, but guess its enough to have a gauge of the pricing indications. its been a long journey with much happiness as well as upsets, and of course the beginning of another brand new stage in life! cheers! overview of living room sitting area another view of living room single seaters 3-seater Edited September 29, 2009 by beany0811 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beany0811 1 Report post Posted September 25, 2009 (edited) 2 weeks have passed since the handover. our wrought iron gate has been repainted because the paint came off, which we are satisfied with. however, we have not heard anything about our carpentry rectification - does such a simple rectification require 2 weeks to get back to us with the info? each time we sms him, all we get is "ok, tks", or "will get back to u later" - seems like he is hoping that we will conveniently forget about the matter. we only either get such short and pointless replies, else totally no replies. our scratched shower screen has not been changed too. ID told us that the guy would see if the scratches could be sanded off; after the guy checked, he said no, he would replace the shower screen the following week; when we called the shower screen guy to confirm the appt; he said he had to do some CONDO stuff, so he would not be able to replace our screen @ the agreed timing. SO... condo biz is so much more impt than a hdb then... that was REALLY infuriating! till now, we have heard nothing. seems these people are just pushing the matter off - delaying, postponing. are they all the same once full payment has been made? this is really disappointing. we have given up sms-ing - have sent email stating the outstanding items - if there is still no response.... anyone knows who else we can bring the issues up to apart from our ID? cos we checked our emails - quite a few outstanding items from emails a month ago also not acted on yet. haizzzzz Edited September 25, 2009 by beany0811 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coffee_o 1 Report post Posted September 25, 2009 (edited) it seems like blum is the "maggi mee" of the anti-slam brand names around we also requested to have that top hydraulic changed to blum, but ID said too exp - $300 plus... worth paying? Wah so ex ah ? But did you check the price yourself ? Is it possible to buy liao ask your carpenter to fix for you ? Oh btw congrats on your HO For your outstanding issues, your ID is not helping you too ? Maybe you can tell your ID if the rectifications is not resolve, you will bring it up to his boss ?

beany0811 1 Report post Posted October 6, 2009 (edited) hello lovely people, we have moved in for about 2 weeks, and living ourselves is no joke - housework, travelling back to oldies' places is already enough to wear us out... and we still have to live with all the imperfections and problems left by the renovations, with our ID MIA. oh well, despite all the headaches and troubles he has caused us, life still goes on a few black sheep in our lives serve to help us learn what to look out for in future... will post a review some time later; let's focus on the happier stuff first. some b4 and in progress/after pics... we'll post more as we get the house tidied entrance before entrance after foyer before foyer after Edited October 6, 2009 by beany0811 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
