plainsharon 20 Report post Posted October 27, 2013 (edited) Day 16Mr. K's workers working hard pulling wire for electricity. It looks like war zone Tomorrow will be 2 walls down for the service yard. Everything is moving on very quickly. Kitchen tiles nicely cut even though we have last min decided to cement screed the walls as Mr. K insisted its more cost effective and easier to do that. [ *Money rolling out of pockets :Another war zone image : Mr. K was supposed to have craft bricks delivered earlier the week but sad to say his craft bricks was stolen when the delivery guy left the delivery at the foot of our block and Mr. K's worker only came in the afternoon. The craft stones were really heavy, would need a few people and some time to move the craft bricks.What unethical contractor or ID!! But Mr. K mentioned that his stuffs always gets missing in this way. Pity Mr. K We heard some stories on how the house was broke into and contractor tools and owner's stuffs got stolen. We quickly have 2 locks to lock up items in the house. Edited October 27, 2013 by plainsharon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

plainsharon 20 Report post Posted October 30, 2013 (edited) Day 19Progression was not what we thought to expect. We are only clearing each checklist one item per week.Still waiting for K to pass us the granite and laminate samples in order for us to pick the colour of the sink.So far we have selected Rubine SinkThese are the 2 type of sink we have shortlist. It comes with various colours so have to wait for K's granite sample in order to select the right colour.The Rubine Sink on the left have a deeper sink compare to the Rubine Sink on the right. Should be going for the deeper sink and going for undermount. Mr KThings is moving slowly and K mentioned that rennovation will only completes in Mid January, 3 months to complete, is that common? K says the touch up will only be after Chinese New Year. K is having quite a fair bit of projects on hand maybe thats why his workers cant be assigned to get things moving quickly. He could only manage to arrange laying of tiles next week. Seems like every single job have a waiting period 1 week in-advance before commencement. The hacked off service yard walls definately makes the kitchen feels bigger. Still waiting for cement screeding finishing on the wall, we pick smooth finish for cement screed walls..

plainsharon 20 Report post Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) Day 20 update**Rubine Sink of the right is out of stock We left with our second option on the left.Are rubine sink so uncommon that there will be more new stocks coming in at the moment?Have initially shortlisted the famous Universal Union in Geylang, IBath Concept in Sin Ming and Teck Joo Hardware in Ang Mo Kio. The prices of these 2 sinks are pretty controlled but the main distributor but Universal U**** in Geylang have thus far provided the most expensive quote out of the other 2. We got it at $300 for the sink.Decided with Teck Joo as is it near to our house and the person Ah Wei was pretty friendly and fast too. We will be collecting our sink tomorrow.Mr. K have requested for us to get the sink soon so that he can get things moving for next week's tiling work.
