haha.. yeah.. Of course, must see if the carpenter is those willing to take up the challenge, not an easy job. Else, you can think of a design to explain to him if it is doable. 6k you can buy a few huge stuff for your house.

I think, before this goes to storage, i better contact my contractor to ask him get quote

from the carpenter. I will share this story.. whatever the outcome.

To do List

-Select Color Scheme

-Select Kitchen, Living Room , Bathroom Floor & Wall tiles

-Buy WC for 3 bathroom

-Buy Lighting for whole house

Finally, hacking start!

Currently only the walls to combine the Mastertoilet & common toilet is approved.

All other hacking of walls need to wait for HDB approval.

Within the week too, my Contrator managed to hand me Photos of 3D image of Dining & Masterbedroom.

He have showed me the Dulux Paint catalog,

Ask me the color scheme, that he mentioned that his ID will come out with something.

Is pretty close to what i want, but I thought it should be like siting with ID,

and try all possible colors to create the ideal color scheme for wall and floor tiles color.

I was there to see the progress and coincident i spotted the windows panes in Blue.

I have ordered for Green tinted ones . Unfortunately caused of this error by my contractor, My house turn out

to be Windowpanes less till next week. They need at least 1 week to make and deliver the correct ones.

But i make sure that i am not held responsible if anything goes missing.

Is the contractor fault.

At night when we went to do the routine night inspection on the progress of reno.

Hubby is unlocking the padlock that was lock by the contractor.

I say to him ...No point they lock the door. You can easily comes in by the Window...
