And the main door and gate open & close without problem.my contractor said :1) need to cut main door and main gate because the tile level will clash (without kerb)2) level of living room cannot be flushed with kitchen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wildreds2 0 Report post Posted April 22, 2008 Not sure if your flat is different, but for mine the living and kitchen floors are level. And the main door and gate open & close without problem.i think heng suay lah..different flats have different floor levels..my missus and i were quite angry with our contractor then when he said have to hack the gate if we want the kitchen floors and living room floors to be flushed. i asked him how come like that when my missus's sis's flat dont have the same problem. He said the floor levels are different for different units. I took a look at my neighbour's flat and they have made the living room floor flushed with the gate but it isnt flushed with the kitchen door. so they made a kerb betw the kitchen and the living roomif really want to cut the gate, think better ask hdb first whether they can do it for you or not. of cos this will delay the renovation period. i didnt ask hdb cos i dont want any delays in the renovations then.

(bad miscomm. sigh)went for instant heater, bought the $100 instant heater (same as my old house, quite reliable since this model/brand works for 3-4 yrs already and still working) and another one at $168 (made in singapore, 5 yrs warranty)gave a call to my ID, just wanted to let him know I have bought the instant heaters and wanted him to arrange plumbers to install in.to my dismay, he hanged up on me. =( he told me he is in a midst of meeting.I told him it is a short one.
