purecat 0 Report post Posted May 5, 2010 (edited) Renovation Week 6 4th May Cornices were up ( two common bedrooms) Common toilet bi-fold door up. Some minor cleaning and room tidying was done. 5th May Alot was done. -Pipes painting at toilet + touchup of the false wall where altar will be. There should be a 2nd layer for whole house later. -Window Grilles were up at last. -The carpentry work are semi completed. Expected to complete by 6th May. Kitchen Solid Surface expected to be up on Saturday along with installation of rest of the bathroom accessories. Allan is confident that flat will be ready this sunday ! Still I dont want to see rush work. I told him we need at least a day to check out all floor tiles and carpentry finishing. ( just to play safe before we issue the final cheque ) Maybe I should give a post dated ? Stressed... Afterall Town Council coming to check on the Ceiling Leakage problem of downstairs neighbour this friday. Not sure when will HDB come? Should I hold on to the final cheque ? Anyway some pictures taken using husband mobile phone today. Window Grilles up at last ( Chosen straight horizontal lines simply because it look simple and easy to clean haha ) Painter from Myanmar still doing OT when we came over . Quite pleased with this guy... he is really gentle in his painting strokes per observation. And the speed of whole house painting is really quite impressive. View of our Shoe Rack- ignore the white sticker which I didnt remove ( Design provided by us. Allan's original design will be round holes instead of the rectangular holes . However we decided to keep per our existing 4 room flat design.) The whole idea of having rectangular holes is to have better circulation.. so that shoes will not be smelly and not mouldy. The same photo you will see that our main gate is now up. We decided on something really simple. Straight horizontal lines. ( heehee.. because easier to clean ) Our 9ft wardrobe.( Inner layout designed by us basis current flat experience ) Edited May 5, 2010 by purecat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

purecat 0 Report post Posted May 9, 2010 (edited) Wrong Kitchen Hob Delivered Only Realise now !!! Something happened today or rather only realised today.... . I am very very upset. I bought this tempered glass model of Kitchen Hob ( even took photos on handphone, except it was two burners instead of 3 ) but they delivered this . To my horror, rechecking the model on invoice, it was wrongly written as the stainless steel model ! The solid surface was already cut, only havent install... but the contractors already throw away the box !!! I cried.... What will you do if you are me ? Will you live with the mistake ? Will you attempt a change ? Will you insist a refund despite invoice saying no refund allowed after delivery ! I cant check then as the box was below the glass chimney hood !

You should faster call up the company immediately to let them know that the sales person wrote dowm the wrong model!! Think you should try to change if possible... At the same time, also let your ID know that you are trying to change the hob... If the size of the hob does not differ too much, perhaps they can still fit that in... Hope things work out for you..

I think it is quite hard to change when the box has been thrown away and furthermore, u did not check the invoice.. U can try calling them up to attempt a change. Otherwise, I suggest u try to sell it away and buy the model u like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For him.. new clothes come in old clothes go (hence less cluttering )... for me.. is maybe can wear next time.. most things will keep n keep.... or the feeling that maybe fashion will come back.... very auntie I know.

I am going to ask if she remember me and remember my purchase, before i ask her why she deliver the stainless steel one. thinking of this make me feel like crying again...

The invoice only written Electrolux Hob and the model no..... and the display unit dont have model no. also.... actually i dont even know if they quote wrongly the price ?... maybe tml i ask what is the price of the tamper glass first... glass cost more than stainless steel ? anyone know ? I am certain i was quoted for the glass one. She even say since it is the 3rd time we are buying... she will give me a special discount... /... sob...
