problems problems problems... after inspecting the house on tuesday, uncle & i listed down all the things to be done.

in order to install my glass doors, they removed the skirting, shldn't have put skirting there in the first place, maybe the flooring ppl didn't know. sian.. now they need to plaster and paint that small portion!

doors never close properly. uncle say cos the ppl who fix the glass door brought plastic strip of wrong size, they will come and do it again.

this one is the most heartpain mistake. :bangwall: plumber was installing all my fixtures and i wanted a clothes hook there. dunno why so suay, happened there was a hollow spot right where i chose. now got hole, difficult to replace tile also. so what to do??? gonna paste a 3M hook above it and hang a picture or decoration. :curse:

I think you can still hack away and replace two pieces of tile. You should have some extra tiles leftover. If not, just buy two pieces from the supplier.

Check with yr plumber? I also wanted to buy first since now got 25% off. Went the showroom at m.sultan and the sales person told me tat it need abt 1.5bar pressure, if not buy Liao also waste $$. Now I still thinking wan to buy first anot. Can't check the water pressure yet as my hse still haven complete... Scared later buy le water pressure not strong enough, then will be wasting the $500.

my plumber shld be glad i'm not calling him back to strangle him. he did such a horrid job with my tap installation and accessories. got leak, install the corner glass shelf upside down. :curse: lucky my hubby know how to fix, cos i dunwan to deal with the plumber any more. now we researching to see if got any alternative ways to increase water pressure. or else really waste the money alr.

how come the raindance is $500?? including mixer huh? the hansgrohe 27887 Raindance is $268, while the 31760 shower mixer is $130. so we spent abt $398 on the shower area.

this shld be my shower mixer. :) Art.no. 31760000

hpb00628.jpg

but ya, if ur flat's mixers are still in good condition, then maybe u can save $$. town council is sending their plumber over this weekend to check our water pressure. but i got a feeling it won't be of any use, they'll prob just tell me "it's normal". *shrugs*
