u go there when the workers are working or after they finish for the day (when u finish work)?

I and Jessie are using the same contractor, pm you the contact.

Like Jessie said, no need to supervise, just go over whenever u r free and feedback to PIC of the defects can already.

[Angel81 1]

Thanks for the contact! Will give him a call sometime to meet up with him.

Haha, okok tks for the info. I'm currently thinking of asking for transfer. Then worry that if I need to go keep an eye on the workers, I wun be able to if I get my transfer request approved (not very nice to keep taking leave for personal matters in the first few months of a new job mah). Thanks again!

I was loking at the floor plan.. an i happen to have some idea!

[Hiera 0]

I was looking at the floor plan contributed by you gys and I happened to see this too look like mine.. though it might not be the exact measurement =)

Some ideas to share bah..

Since both toilets on the 2nd floor require a face lift le... And my In Laws will be shifting in with me...

So mind as welll~

.

.... ....

I Started with this idea... Budden.. thinkthinkthink... as i was playing with the "paint" prog.. I came out with this:

In this way.. We can have 2 master bed room!

Kids in future will use either the Main room toilet or Gran's toilet bahh..

Actually..

I cannot remb where the wc is le.. just conveniently move it ike the way i used to play with "the Sims" when i was younger hehe..

The movement of the walls.. made the room alot bigger le.. Only to compromise is the toilet lor, maybe no designated shower area le. see how it can be done bah..

Dunno about the cost of hacking also.. Just ideas hehe

actually, if u're intending to convert the 2nd bedroom into a master bedroom with attached bathroom (i.e the common loo), then u can consider putting the shower area right at the existing door (of course seal up the door and create a new door inside the bedroom itself).

Hiera, the above is the exactly what i told u in email. Always apply permit from HDB if u want to knock down wall or build wall.
