ngunadi 2 Report post Posted March 17, 2010 No idea, only see pictures. Definitely, not plywood type. Once, we're going to get, definitely will ask more question. otherwise, how to verify ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

patsy_sg 1 Report post Posted April 4, 2010 haven't updated here for a while.... have changed ID's, yeah, last minute. Was so pissed with my friend, he promised to come with me to inspect the apt, made me wait for 1 hr, no call, no sms, just didn't show up. Didn't even apologize for not showing up. Told me no need to see any drawings, just trust him, when I pushed him for it. he sent me something that was totally off what I want! Good thing a good friend was doing reno too and intro me to her ID, who i liked from the off. So going with him instead. Have seen the detailed drawings (no 3D), chosen colours and laminates, lights etc. Am looking for people who can do plantation style wooden blinds for the balcony door, for a more old colonial feel, does anyone know who makes them?

Yah, I did ask for this type of doors many years back from a curtain shop and they said it will be ex. Why a curtain shop> because I saw something like it in their display. I think its from Hunter Douglas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
