potatoes 0 Report post Posted December 10, 2011 (edited) I agree that EM needs to have a toilet at 1st level... Not just for elderly. Having one is impt when need to go toilet urgently or visitors can also use. I also restored my 1st toilet and it is not cheap lor.

slyphy 0 Report post Posted December 19, 2011 Will continue to update the progress and share...So far..I would say my reno is rush but yet everything seems to be moving...ID really bring in a lot of workers to rush the work out. I get to know fr my hubby that we have 2 China workers laying the granite, 3 Malaysian workers laying the kitchen, 3 toilets wall & floor tiles, a few Indian workers doing the hacking and clearing the debris, electrician working on the rewiring etc...No major hippcups so far and thins seems to be going fine...hope it will continue to move fast and smooth...One thing to compliment is my ID has been very accomodating as we did some last minute changes despite we had already finaliz his 3D design...he juz keep saying ok..no problem we're still in time to change...
