I also want install shower glass panel in bathroom but my bathroom have 2 access from kitchen and bedroom so it is challenge .

1.  May need to seal the door mat kitchen side

Or 

2. Get a bath tub and curtain but not sure about  the actually size of  bathroom so don't know can't fit it or not 

3.   Never have dry and wet bathroom  

 

 

If you don't mind running exposed pipes, you can partition your bathroom the way mmoh is doing, but relocate the wash basin to be in front of the WC. Then your shower enclosure will run full width of bathroom, with the kitchen entrance sealed up.

You mean it will affect the water pressure? If it's just about aesthetics, I would do it just to get dry/wet areas. For me I'm sealing up bedroom entrance and swapping wash basin (1 pipe) and shower area (2 pipes). So will have to live with criss-crossing pipes

I don't feel like seal the kitchen entrance .  Headache . I can't imagine now as until see the actual unit .  My BTO's TOP is 3Q 2017.

initially i wanted to seal the kitchen entrance until I see the actual unit... 

then u might be able to collect keys by 1Q 2017 or earlier.

Welcome! 

15k just for reno is very possible but of cos depends on what you plan to do.  Esp if u r looking for contractors instead of ID cos ID definitely charge more than contractors but of cos u enjoy more of their services.

20k include white goods, just a rough estimation: aircon 2k, fridge $800, washing machine $700, TV $500, hob & hood $1k (this one i havent research so not so sure abt this estimation), these few items already about $5k already. so meaning ur reno budget will be around $15k.

hi all!  i am new!

many great ideas here! really useful and grateful!

have learned many things in this thread.

now i have to 'tankuku'  till 2020 to get my type1 unit in West Quarry. but like many others, too excited to explore ideas for future reno. haha.

i chose type1 instead of type 2 coz i like higher floors. last tuesday during my selection, all high-floor units for type 2 were grabbed.  bopian.

but i feel that albeit the smallness of type 1, there r many good things about being small too. first of all, i do not need to think about whether to seal one of the toilet doors

secondly, space is limited, so cannot hoard things. good habit.

thirdly, not many walls can hang things - save carpentry $$

keep things simple. less is more.

i think my future unit theme will be minimalist.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hi... You are also bt.btk..  

me too.. I am west ridges.. 

Like mmoh said.. U are very postive.. Lol.. Good for you... Until now i still abit emo that I couldn't get type 2. 

I was stuck with a smaller type 1 coz by my turn...  Just left 1 miserable unit.. Lol.. So it's take it or leave it..

but your room is very big... Mine is smaller...  U can put queen size bed..

Not possible to hack toilet walls for 1st 3 years!

Actually, can anyone confirm this? I understand that the tiles etc are under warranty but since I did not opt for the flooring and sanitary fittings upon my flat selection, what would be my stance in creating my own bathroom? Or does all toilets definitely come with flooring and only the living area is left empty?
