Bengologist 1 Report post Posted June 27, 2013 ouch! beng, was about to say that your chandelier is beautiful then saw your post on the incident, luckily no one is injured.Ya, must ask them ensure that the replacement set is secure properly, so dangerous!luckily your ID and electrician take responsibility for it, if not really very heart pain.Yeah, I will make sure the replacement set is super secured. Maybe going to ask them to use super glue, screws, scotch-tape, staples etc when they fix it up. Maybe I will add some masking tape after it's up. Wahahaha.... Super kiasu! Ya, I'm also glad that they took responsibility, otherwise it will be heart pain for me. Imagine the excitement from first-time purchase on Taobao, saw the delivery arrived at my house and then have this piece of enthusiasm transform into disappointment. How drastic is that. Hahaha...

I also not sure how they check the chandelier above the dining table, have to check with my mom cause she's the one who spoke to the ID & electrician boss yesterday while I'm working in the office.

Bengologist 1 Report post Posted June 27, 2013 Bengologist, was it a false ceiling that they fixed the lights to? Or concrete ceiling? Looks scary.. your incident got me all paranoid of my upcoming lights above my dry kitchen granite top!You mean the fallen chandelier incident? It was fixed onto a concrete wall. I guess the two screws weren't sufficient to support the weight of the chandelier, that's why it fell. You gotta ask your electricians to take note of the weight of the chandelier and take extra precaution when installing it. It wouldn't give them too much trouble to put more enforcement. Better be safe than sorry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

3Dyms 1 Report post Posted July 2, 2013 Congrats on the completion of your Reno. Love reading all your posts. Not only are they informative, but also hilarious and entertaining. So sad to read about the loss of items and the crashing chandelier. Thankfully all things can be settled without much fuss. End of day, your new home looks fantastic and your parents + sis must be beaming with pride on the mighty fine job you did. *clap clap*Hah.... Bro Eric did the fan installations for my old place and I'll definately contact him again my upcoming new house too. Friendly chap with great customer service. Enjoy your new home.
