:bangwall:

just had been playing game since young so its a habit to play online games even now :D hee hee

married life is different.. a lot of things must consider and plan carefully... not easy... but we are happy with what we have now.. after going through all the hassle and reno and settling down.. its a sigh of relief.. :P

yeah AD not plan yet so now just enjoying life first :)

I had different experience when i went there.. Ho Bee sales man was hovering like an eagle, while SSC didnt even bother at all.. Only AE was very patience with us and we went in and other three of the shops many times.. until settle our items with Ricky... hahahaha :D

i guess everyone have different experience with service.. !!

Ur quote is missing plumber works. Do u have intention to conceal the bomb shelter entrance?

Oh, if u can achieve less than $20K for those u stated, then i will be so angry with myself, why i dun go for Contractors instead? :deal: Me dun have good design sense, thats y have to spend more $$ to let ID headache for me.

I dont have wall papers, sin change the doors, din buy new doors; have some hacking, did grilles for whole unit(bobian), window for s.balcony, fair bit of carpentry works & haulage blah blah blah, add up to be $27.5k le.

Better dun go think abt it.... getting poorer. :notti:

Harlow Greycat!!

heehee, me is Ah-Der...now in office typing this to u....

see dat u are tinking abt the rain shower issue so i decided to drop a comment or two.

for me, i wanted to get rain shower too cause machiam hotel bathroom.

when i went to buy, the lady and my contractor say get rain shower must also buy storage heater. instant heater wont have the power for the water.

then the qns came: how much $$$?? my contractor qouted me ard 1k (include: storage heater, rain shower, mixer, hot and cold water piping, installation and plumbing works) not expensive, but since a instant heater only cost $100+, we chose instant heater.

also, storage heater takes up a lot of electricity consumption. and need extra cost cause got plumbing works invloved to run the hot and cold pipes.

the main thing that i decided against it was cause the water power may not be strong. cause we are staying in HDB, the lower the level, the lesser the water power. for those folks on the top level are at advanatge due to the water tank just above them. I am staying at 9th floor, but my blk has 30 levels. so its relatively low.

my reno is finishing end of april...u can come my hse see see look look.

my contractor is charging me $19800 for:

hacking of floor titles except bathroom

laying of homo (hall)

laying of parquet (3 bedrooms)

laying of ceremic for kitchen

remove kitchen sink support (resale flat)

kitchen cabinets (cant rem the length..but its long)

full height 7 feet wardrobe at MBR

shower screen and kerb at MBR toilet

vanity top at MBR toilet

full ht mirror in front of vanity top

full height feature wall (i forgot the size, but its rather big abt one whole wall)

painting using Nippon Easywash

chemical washing

1 toilet bowl

2 sets of bathroom accessories

removal of window grilles

(shld be abt it... sorry always forgot to pass u my qoutation, so got to type here)

in addition, i spent $3900 on aircons (HongTar, ME Starmex Inverter)

my lights are done FOC by FIL (cause no lighting points needed)

oops, pasiei..got carried away and type so much... sorry... :notti:

when i free,i post some photos for u to see here...

we are shopping every weekend for furniture and hsehld stuff and the damage is :deal:
