Our Dream Home~

Recommended Posts

19 April is first appt. and if taking 6 weeks to completion (hv to be min 6 weeks cos need to have $$ from sale of my current unit to come back for payment to this unit), i will take keys ard 31 May wor...long rite? I want to ask seller to give me keys first since they moving liao. if not, min let me hv 2 days to bring FSM and contractor up.

so most likely your reno will start in Jun, plenty of time to look around and decide on wat you wanna do...should be well prepared by the time your reno starts... :good:

hey samgalz, here to bug you and add some noise :) do you know if there's a good showroom for Blum cabinets? or how did you find out about Blum? redoing my kitchen and researching cabinets.

hi scl8k, you can checkout their showroom at 150, ubi ave 4, very nice display over there and the sales personnel will answer all your queries...but i think they only open on weekdays if i am not wrong.

but hor buy from their retailer is cheaper than direct, from what i heard. some one recommend to buy from:

Kiang Sing Hong Hardware Supplies

828 Upper Bukit Timah Road

Tel: 67600365 - Look for Mr Ang. He is very helpful with the various configurations with the best pricing.

Hi samgalz,

Noticed that you're getting your electrical appliances from Gain City. Actually the prices there may not be the most competitive. If you don't need installments you can try giving *spam a call. Believe some of the items there may be cheaper. Just quote the model number.

*spam Electrical Trading

159 Ang Mo Kio Ave 4 #01-534

64582531

;)

hi nacho

thanks, i haven't got any yet. i use gain city as a stepping stone for comparison. :D will be asking around but maybe getting from mega discount cos still have room for nego on top of being cheaper than GC

TB98T is the chimmney hood rite? i not going to get those, feels it's a little space wasting. :D but with wcseow's feedback on the tempered glass hob, dunno if i should go ahead with it... :unsure:

become designer mosaic.....:)....no sharp edges....

lol..dat time I bought also because it is nice....and fit my tiles very well....

do not meant to scare people. but to this day we still do not know why. Because it cannot be due to heat as we are not cooking, and nothing drop on it as well....and also nothing is missing (so cannot be robber....lol)......

I read somewhere that if the knock is at the edge, it will shattered. Or something hard and sharp drop on it. It will not shattered due to heat...

But I am only the rare one....I think....
