sleek 2 Report post Posted June 13, 2011 yeah that's much better and less tedious like you mentioned congrats on the low cov, have more money for your reno as it seems that you will prolly need to re-do everything. i think the only toilets that are bigger for 4room are those 4A type of flats, everything else has miserable toilets but at least the rooms are a decent size compared to the newer flats with bigger toilets but smaller rooms (and everything else)! really dont know what these people are being paid to do at hdb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zorae 0 Report post Posted October 31, 2011 Went to choose tiles some time ago. The background is the marble tiles in my parent's house (my current home). No enuff $$$ for marble in my new home.The words on the masking tape over the grey tile is very very misleading. What balcony? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zorae 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2011 Hacking started on 1 Nov and today Wee Kuang received a phone call from HDB about neighbours complaining about the noise. Any suggestions to pacify them?Hopefully that won't affect the pace of the reno. Targeted hand-over by Wee Kuang to be 24 Dec but my own target is 15 Dec. I don't want to be at home packing on X'mas!

zorae 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2011 Kudos to Wee Kuang and his undying patience to such a fickle person like me. Think I've changed my mind many times over since we signed the contract for the reno (and he must hate renotalk cuz its the source of my fickle-mindedness)Day 3 - HackingMajority of the things are out except for air-con trunking, some electrical trunking in kitchen and living and the windows.And the puny toilet which looks even smaller when everything is out of the way notice that the opening to the toilet is hugeAnd on my way back, I saw the foam that will be used to raise my dining area to the same height as the living Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zorae 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2011 Already bought many things even before the renovation started. I'm a classic example of what you call a "kan-cheong spider".EF hood and hob from Gain City Expo saleSamsung washer/dryer from Gain City Expo saleAriston oven from MayerKDK ceiling fan (think I bought too big a fan ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zorae 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2011 (edited) Citygas heater during the roadshow in TPYalso bought the rainshower set they carried during the roadshow. Figured that if Citygas carried it for their gas heaters roadshow, then it will work with them, right?Also gotten Mitsubishi Heavy Industries system 4 air-con for about $3500. 3x9000btu + 1x18000btu fancoils. Worth it? Edited November 3, 2011 by zorae Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zorae 0 Report post Posted November 3, 2011 My lastest deliberation: adding cove lights. Thinking of adding cove lights to only 1 side as I love the atmosphere cove lights give but I can't stand the dust. Which side works better? The length above the tv or the opposite side?
