Tiling work

The contractor explained the tiling process . Initially mentioned that he might not be able to tile up the partially conceal area behind the pipes. We were pretty impressed when he managed to do so ! Neatly too ;) All kitchen area tiled up , from the beam to the area behind the cabinet :D

Plastering and windows

The house looks great after plastering . Even surfaces , nice to feel and look at ! We finally understand that the metal piece with tiny holes are meant to even out corners / ledges . Another discovery :P

Changed :

- Bedroom doors to classic doors , inclusive of door frames . To be painted white.

- Windows for living and bedroom 1 - Sliding window with top hung , tinted glass

- Windows for kitchen and bedroom 2 - Casement window , tinted glass

- Bathroom and WC - Adjustable louver wired mesh glass window

- White powder coated window grills for whole house except utility room (the only area intact!)
