EMRENO 0 Report post Posted May 5, 2012 All blocks at towner going through repainting on the external. So you will have new external and internal looks!Good timing, as i have knock down my front door wall to bring it forward. So just nice that the external wall will be painted with the same paint for my new erected wall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EMRENO 0 Report post Posted May 5, 2012 My completion of sale is on the 26 April, and my reno unoffically starts on the 27 April. Fast right? Thats because i have submitted my reno application with the owner's indenmity letter for HDB to approved my reno permit way before the completion date. I would have started much earlier if not for the time i have to give the seller to pack their stuffs, mostly items of sentimental values. So now i have to count on my ID to managed the reno as efficiently as possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wanted to do fishbone stair and it costs us 5figure sum but in the end was told it cannot be done!!Hi jshome, i supposed so. You and i have the exact layout. I think if you retain the 'spine' of the staircase, you still can do. For me, i would like to have your current condition, just change the railings, replace with glass that secure to the concrete at the side of the staircase.I am waiting to see your special staircase too.
