Perhaps I can snap a few pics & share with you guys the opennet has been installed at my mom's place. basically it starts from the main power distribution unit and ends at your desired location. The cable casing is about 1cm in width, so still not tat bad in my opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps I can snap a few pics & share with you guys Hi Chipee, it is not the kitchen flooring but the barquet that Edmund has made a mess now! HDB has rectify for us nicely but he has got his workers to redo varnish and turns up all wrinkles and doesnt want to rectify the problem! How can he do such thing right????? He said he will only rectify the MBR which is more severe but not the other 2 rooms. HB is there and pretty TL now as he has spoken to the worker n the worker commented that if dont re-do the other 2 rooms then become different colour compared to MBR. How to accept such job????? Edmund is getting worst n showing us his true colour now~~~~~~~~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, when I see it I nearly fainted as it really looks soooooooo ugly! Anyway, Edmund finally agreed to re-do the 3 bedrooms for us to prevent future unhappiness though we can see that he is very unwillingly to do but this is no fault of us! Now I strongly believe that renovation will sure have hiccups n problems with contractors.....hopefully things will go smoothly from here onwards...enough of arguments n disputes!!!!!

chipee 0 Report post Posted March 10, 2010 (edited) Nope, BSC dun do it .. uneven grout color is not a defect. Inconsistent tiles gap do not constitute as defect too.

To clear the confusion on varnishing...it is because Edmund workers didnt polish before they varnish which resulted to wrinkles everywhere in my bed rooms. Hence, the workers have to polish then varnish later which will become nice nice .....get me now ? Anyway, the next problem is to resolve the grouting .....guess will have to get HDB to do it or DIY ourselves.... So are you going to sign with him? Dont let my case affect your decision to sign with him....good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
