ashleyspace 1 Report post Posted December 4, 2012 Daily UPDATESDay 3Didnt took much photos, but was glad to see all debris was cleared out of the house..... So assuming they should be starting the tiles work soon.....As we have not done the measurement of the kitchen cabinet, because my ID told me that it can only be done without the existing cabinet.....Actually I think we update my ID with the progress of the renovation via Whatsapp more than he update us.... I thought I'm the only thinking so - "we update more than the ID updates us".... Maybe house owner always more "gan chiong" than the ID, coz eventually we are the one going to live in it anyway. Hmm, certainly hope for a pro-active ID, but I bet most are like that? Going to give up complaining and just try to manage him if don't manage properly :-P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dreamer10 0 Report post Posted December 5, 2012 Nice washroom accessories you've picked. This is from Hoe Kee is not mistaken??I like those towel bar which looks a bit squarish also, so modern looking. Actually it's not boring at all, sometimes choosing washroom accessories can be fun looking at the nice nice design...Is there any difference for choosing washroom in chrome plated vs stainless steel? Any benefits over each others e.g. not so easily rust??Hi hito correct, thats actually glass shelve.... not towel bar, but I think I saw towel bar of the series... It really beautiful....I choose the accessories bcos I like the chrome feel on my white tiles, I didnt really think of whether it last anot.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sherting 5 Report post Posted December 24, 2012 Did some DIY over the weekends.......Overlay of TV console (by FIL) (pardon the light blue cover, its actually white)Removal of the glue stain on the floor.... the Before & AfterWow your FIL is a carpenter? How did he overlay the TV console to white? It's very nice. How much does it cost for the laminate for overlay? Was told by contractor that the cost of overlaying TV console is the same as getting a new TV console? Hmm....think it's not true hor cos by doing a new one he will earn more....

Dreamer10 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2012 hi Sherting, the overlay will be much more cheaper than getting a new console, but it very much depends on the worksmanship, as it was done my my FIL, so its FOCWill post more photo after i remove the blue protector Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
