Welcome to RT and good luck to your coming Reno.

Thanks all for the warm welcome!

My renovation haven't started but I'm experiencing some hiccups already.

1. Rectification works is still on going for 2nd week.. And going into 3rd week...

2. Floor plan: PE needed the floor plan in PDF and I only have the hard copy. Made 5-6 phone calls to HDB and finally 1 person managed to have me the simplest solution. Just pay $5 to get the PDF version online.

3. Last min one contractor at night inform me that they won't be taking up my project as my case is too SMALL when I have confirmed almost everything!! Even more gek sim as it is a friend. Those who wants to know which to avoid firm just PM me. But I won't post here coz I do not wish to break his rice bowl..

4. Singpost (wat's new..) delayed the shipment of some of my lights for additional 3 weeks without a proper explanation. They claimed my parcel was damaged but we finally receive it, it was not.

Pray hard the rest of the Reno will go smoothly! Po pi po pi

Can you not just scan your hard copy into PDF?

Good luck with your reno! Do update us with photos

@kstoh: I no scanner..

Had the impression that I can get from Hdb.. Wasn't expecting it to be so... Not so direct.

Yes! I will! I'm still waiting for the retification works to be completed.. Zzz

I'll be posting my taobao lighting loots and my kraus kitchen sink once I have chance to open and check~~

Did you order kraus kitchen sink via Amazon? May I know what size and how much did you pay for? And how much is the shipping fee?

Thanks!

We are 3 roomer & have experienced the same thing whereby ID choose & pick project size. After meeting them at site & tell them that we are gg for industrial theme, do not want standard stuff like ceiling & console but replaced by bricks wall, some hacking etc, the ID just MIA & don even bother to quote...
