Thanks, shopping will stop for the time being. but we are still in need of study tables n chairs, a lounge chair to be place beside my son's bed for me to sit with him for bedtime, filter system (am thinking of the 3M one) etc. Now am busy fighting a war with King Koil on my sofa bed. Shall talk more later when things are settled.

froggy 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2010 hi Sam don't mind be "borrowing" yr blog. Wanted to ask a question not quite related to the current discussion, but thought this blog is the best to attack since of the high viewership lah .. anyway, just wondering when does carpentry work typically start, assuming it's an overhaul job? After wet works? Tiling? painting? or what? Also when does painting happen? Before carpentry and aircon 2nd installation right? Just wondering about logical sequence of events in a typical reno? thank you for allowing me airtime on yr blog, Sam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
samgalz 2 Report post Posted August 15, 2010 hehe, no prob froggy. for me sequence is tiling, measurement of carpentry, painting first coat, aircon piping, then cannot remember painting second coat first or carpentry installation first. hope this helps.
