martin1023 0 Report post Posted March 8, 2011 Hi Martin, I must say your tiles are up fast. Did your contractor conduct a water tightness test before you had your tiles laid? How many tilers were working at your place? I must say your works are fast, as compared to mine. They are now applying the waterproof screed and I have told them to do a water test for two days to see if there is any leakage. Even though there is a five year guarantee, I doubt anyone will want to have to move out to have the bathroom rehacked and waterproofed again. I also noticed you are doing a HT system in your house. Nice system by the way. I am installing one in my place as well. Is there anything I should know about placements and installation? I am a complete noob on this. Cheers! I dun think the tiles are up that fast since they have work on it for more than a week. There are approximate 2-4 workers working on the toilet part. I will be able to advise you if you let me know what system you will installing. But your ID, electrician and the place where you bought the system should be in a better position to help you. Else google for the speaker placement and the Crutchfield Website under the learning centre for more information and guides. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The excel sheet really is so scary, I keep wishing the auto-sum is wrong! Mine seems way more than you, Martin /cry. Too scary to breakdown and list on blog methinks. -Ely Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Too scary to breakdown and list on blog methinks. -Ely Speaking about the excel sheet, I m adding new items until I have to print them in A3 size. Every weekend is shopping n shopping n shopping... wish I was 10 years younger... I prefer to see and feel the physical stuff so I don't do much online shopping unless I too lazy to go hunting in Singapore. This Fri 1st Apr (April Fools day) 80% of my furniture, electrical appliances and the sound system will be delivered and installed. 7 different stores FYI. Once everything is completed, I shall update the ALL the photos here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
