gnipihz 1 Report post Posted November 2, 2011 Hihi....perhaps you would like to share on the problems you faced?? From my place, the plastering 1st round looks very good. Smooth and hardly can see any uneven places. Once painted, can see some area uneven and will need to touch up and repaint. Then with lightings switched on, it'll be even more obvious to see if the surface is smooth and flat. =)Just be prepared there might be touch ups here and there. So remember to insist on nice smooth walls (even if after painting then realise not smooth) since you also have paid $$ for plastering. just my 2 cents.

I think this column where the plaster thingy comes in...Well my ceiling had some kind of plaster design / wallpaper so it was scrapped off.Furthermore I am hacking off wall tiles from my balcony but am just replacing with paint finish - I definitely can't leave them exposed after hacking right?

enrico 0 Report post Posted November 8, 2011 Yep! Its aircon installation time! After they installed the aircon they helped to cover up the aircons as we told them we will be doing more ceiling works and painting shortly which I thought was quite nice of them... Wanted to post a picture of Wee Kuang hard at work but he told me he's a bit camera shy... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
