A Simple Plan For A Simple Space

Recommended Posts

Thanks vade :) My hubby and I went down to Hafary at Balestier today and was quoted $95 for 1 metre square. We went the another shop along the same stretch and was quoted $80 for 1.2 metre square. It's a different brand but the bricks look the same.

Hi guys,

Is it cheaper to buy the craftstones and ask the contractor to fix it? My quote for a +-2m wall is about $980 from my contractor.

Hi pinkcubey,

Try www.craftstone.com.sg. I was quoted 78 per 1sqm excl GST.

Hi beezeebear,

My contractor quoted me 600++ for a 2m wall of HDB wall height. You wanna try DIY?

Did u DIY your wall? hahaha I am worried the craft stones will start falling off after a few months. :P

I append his advice here...hope the thread owner don't mind.

"Most HDB flat has a ceiling height of 2.6m. Based on your width of 2m, the total surface area is 5.2 Sq.M and will require at least 5 cartons. If the sales value is less than S$500.00, there will be a S$50.00 transportation charge if you request for delivery. However, you can do self-collection and 5 cartons of CraftBricks can fit easily into a private car. Each carton weights 20~22kg.

For DIY, you can use MaxBond glue to stick the tiles onto existing wall. However, do make sure that the wall is free from dust and dirt before installation. Choose an edge to start laying from bottom up. Use a wood strip (around 9mm in width) to maintain the straight line and gaps between the tiles. Mix and add water to normal Portland Cement till you get a dough like mixture which you can roll and mold easily. Use this cement dough to fill the gaps between the brick tiles. You will need a hand grinder (or Makita Cutter) to trim the brick tiles at the edge."

Common toilet with perhaps the most popular toilet bowl here in Renotalk (ARINO CAPRIO). Got it from a shop along Balestier called Living Phenomenon, was quoted $580 for it and found it at other shops selling for $450 w/o GST! Felt so stupid after that.
