ncsl999 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2011 After 6 weeks of reno, not much has changed since, we changed the false ceiling structure and now the partition is up for the study area. They are now constructing the false ceiling in the dry kitchen and toilet tiles all up.. Air con trunking done and installation of fancoils. To my Horror is that I felt that the air-con trunking is done up very poorly.. with all kinds of gaps.. I will post up the pictures later, can everyone, pls kindly advice me if this is the norm. I called my ID and he said they will plaster ... but I feel cant they do it neater and nicer .. instead they broke a BIG hole is my common toilet very nice tile.. Hopefully painting and pipping work can start next week.. As of now we are way behind the original schedule (Haiz target completion date suppose to be 26 Dec 2011) ( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for it looking seamless even with abs, mine appears to be that way - I didn't even realize there is abs or not tillI went to look at it for your case.

cleong 1 Report post Posted December 11, 2011 Those gaps in the aircon trunking will be easily closed up with white sealant, don't worry about it, just make sure they eventually get it done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also have gaps in my trunking too. Recently, I saw a big lizard escaped through the gap. I temporarily sealed it off with a white tape. LoL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HTHsHi Sleek,Thanks for confirming the matter, but I went to Ikea yesterday and looked hard.. not all but most of the cabinets have either veneer trim or ABS trimming.. the finishing is pretty neat & nice .. not to mention , they feel smooth running my hands on them.. ncsl999 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
