dmay 0 Report post Posted October 29, 2009 BTW, today the electrian, ah hao, came over to take a look again. Then he gave us a quote, which is quite shocking to me. $1900! I really didn't expect it to be that much cos most of our lighting points there liao mah, just needed to change from round downlight to square downlight and seal up some that's not to be used... anyway, told him i'll need to get back to him. Maybe my kitchen got alot of new points that's why.. i don't know leh... sigh... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here's a few pix Here's the balcony, some problem leh... sharp edges, not flat... tiler say cannot fix, must hack off the whole thing and relay wor... say the tiles too long, not flat This's the master toilet This's the common toilet Today hubby found out there're water dripping from one of the water pipe in the common toilet. The plumber came to fix it in the morning, but abt 1 hr ago hubby say still got abit of water leh... so he coming to see again tmr. This is very impt cos we doing box-up for the pipes in the toilet. Hopefully all will be good after tmr. Today & tmr will be electric + false ceiling. Then after that will be the kitchen (not by Henry). Things that we need to buy: 1) lights for toilets and the 3 bedrooms 2) toilet WC & sink 3) shower head and taps 4) sink for kitchen Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
