carrotcakegirl 5 Report post Posted November 12, 2012 HELLO! Just wondering, when you ordered the craftbrick from JB, how much does your contractor charge you for laying the bricks? ANd where is the warehouse at? Ive googled for craftbrick in Ayer Hitam but theres only two that is reliable.. Just ensuring i got the right one.. hehh! Thankshi waniekilei,my tiler quote me $350 per wall, so my total damage for 2 walls is= $700. plus $180 of wall chipping and extra sand from haulage ppl (town council).the main factory is at Ayer Hitam, and fyi all the tiles shop in Singapore selling the CraftStone & CraftBricks model are imported from them and yes!! you got the right one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
