catseyes2004sg 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2009 (edited) Hi New, tks so much for the detailed info on the Blum types of drawers and carpentery! tks tks tks I am finally back in SIN this morning, tired.... been working fm early morning to nite last few days. Kopi, u must have the Nespresso machine and the milk foam maker! The new red model I saw at the showrm has the milk foam maker joint as 1. I have the machine in the plane all this while (with a tube milk foam maker tats makes lousy foam and always burn my fingers), but only get the milk foam maker (which is so easy to use and produce quick foam) last week in Tokyo (cos the plane voltage is 110V) and the moment I bot it, I offer my boss the cuppucino, and eversince then, he always ask for it! His guest also say Charemme, I did tot of combining the 2 toilets but 1 contractor reminds me that not advisable cos big fat ugly pipes may be visible after knocking down the walls between. And also tik of bath tub too, hehehhe but realised I tik it may became a white elephant cos I stay in hotels often and nvr use it!

catseyes2004sg 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2009 (edited) The search of ID/ contractor to do up my place: The search started in July when I have found my unit and exercised OTP. Engaged Feng shui master to audit my unit (with seller's permission) and he advised floor plan amendments. So with my new feng shui audited floorplan, I went to call up to the below IDs/ contractors: 1) Yeak: As I have confidence in his works cos I went to Rondy's place to view. I was sure he will do my place nicely. Yeak is very accomodating and even dropped by my unit when I had the Feng shui master there. He took some measurement and left shortly. I met him the 2nd time at his shop with the updated feng shui audited floorplan. Yeak is a very sincere, nice chap and he advised what to and is necessary. In a week time, I got his quote. 2) Henry (fm Impress 21): He was busy, but manage to meet me the very next day I called him. He was the very first 1 to meet me to discuss my quote. He was very comfortable to discuss and injected suggestions. I received his quote in a few days. 3) Roy (fm Inzen): Called him last mth, it took him slightly longer than a week for his quote. Met him 2 weeks ago to discuss abt my reno. As usual, these fews IDs/ contractors were all the famous pple here in Renotalk and between our discussion, had pple calling him to ask him to quote. Roy was also giving suggestions and comfortable to chat with. 4) Kenneth (fm Ideal Hse): Called him last mth and it took him a week to emailed me with quote. I was away for almost 3 weeks and only meet him 2 wks ago when I got back. He proved to be confident and comes with ideas and his quote was clear and giving me design ideas he would do up my place. His quote is the most expensive among the 4. But I have to give him credit for his time spend on some basic drawing on my floor plan and suggesting ideas. With his famous good works and assuring me he can help me do my reno nice nice while I was not in Sin, I have confident my place will be in good hands. I told him when I was away and decison has to be make, I will leave it to him to decide. He told me he will snap pic and email me and ask for my permission. But I trust his taste and decison making. So last nite, I met with Kenneth and signed with him. He told me he will come back to me with the 3D designs and schedule in 14 days. N if everything is ok, reno will start on 12 Nov (date advised by feng shui master). So finally my biggest purchase is done Edited December 7, 2009 by catseyes2004sg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

catseyes2004sg 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2009 WOW!since u have engage from Ideal house,they should have 3D! remember to post and show us Did they waive for u the GST? Hi Rondy bro, I feel paisei towards Yeak and inform him last nite my reno will be done by someone else. Assured him his wks is gd and I will recommend frds to him. He is a gd chap. Yes, Ideal hse have 3D but will takes abt 14 days for him to come with that and schedule for my reno. But I am still undecisive abt some carpentery, so along the way will be additional n $$$ No Gst fm Ideal Hse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
