There is a cv forum?

Reno starting tmr? How long will it take? All defects already rectified?

Defects rectification in progress.. I just called up the rectification in-charge, he said no problem to continue with reno.

angeliqueho81 getting ID or contractor? I hope i can finalize my ID by this week den start reno in march. will start my reno t-blog once i selected my ID.

I'm using contractor. Impress 21. Quite well known in this forum. My budget less than 15k for renovation, so i select contractor, at least i can do more with less

Now planning to add in one more item, kitchen counter top just beside the fridge area, since my fridge is quite slim, i'm thinking of doing a counter top beside it.

Wanted to get a set wickers high bar table with 4 stools at $1400. But husband disagree due to safety reason. So in the end we got something similiar to this for our balcony...

at $950

btw how many SS baskets u got in the bottom cabinet??? i just realised today i got 2 baskets but there's like 3 hooks...so not sure if HH forgot to install last one...

[wayne900 0]

there is only 2 basket.. check with a lot of neighbours on this. But, if you want, u can purchase one.

i have quite a bit of defects. so far no one fix anything.

- window grill is loose

- found quite a bit of crack in the kitchen cabinet

- rust around my master bedroom toilet and common toilet

- under the window, 2 of my window do not have the paster/glue?

- common toilet toilet paper holder is not straight

- my db door is missing one hinge

- peeling on some of my kitchen cabinet and wardrobe

- some drawers is not smooth when i turn the key and 1 drawer is shaky

- stain on the door and floor (just need them to help clean a bit)

- found a patch on the wall that is hollow.. (this is the major one i guess)

by the way, the bedroom 2 can add additional wardrobe on top.

I met with my contractor today and decided to have another small counter that come with pull out baskets added on beside my fridge since my fridge is only 60cm wide. another $300 burn. haha. I was thinking that small counter can be my pantry area, at least to put bread or vacuum flask hot water. In a really small home, we can only think of utilizing the area as much as possible.
