HaiDeChen 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2012 Now no progress I think tomorrow my craft stone bricks going up.... Then tiling on floor will start. After that then carpentry. By 29th of Dec I should be able to move stuff in. I'm really reluctant to rush carpentry as I think that one slow and steady better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Think best not to as the remaining works could damage the new stuff. E.g. paint marks, workers sitting/standing on them, acid wash. The items will also need to be moved when works progress and damage could happen. Last concern is theft. This was the advise I was given by my contractor which I think makes sense.

HaiDeChen 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2012 nope, not moving in anything yet. just told my contractor to have the place clean (at least one room) for me to move my piano and books. i think by then should only have super minimal reno going on, at most painting or applying laminate to kitchen cabinets...i kinda regret buying furniture too early...oh well.

Ifs difficult to contain the excitement but then if buy too early, you might realised it didn't fit into your new home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RemyLebeau 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2012 Just be prudent with paying your ID ...I'm still thinking should i down the 40% tomorrow. If you take a look at my thread, past 3 days was like that. I question him today why there's no work done and he says plumbering will take place tml cos the toilet stuffs will be in tml... Not sure how long will plumbering gonna take place plus painting/plastering not yet done. What would you do if you were me? Should i down first or down half of the 40%.
