A Man Need A Cave - My Bachelor Pad Reno Journey

Recommended Posts

Bro

Day 16

Back for my holiday as only, during I am away my ID still keep me updated on the progress. Since today still my eat snake day so went up to take a look how's the progress.

So far I am happy with the workmanship (or maybe I am did not really look into the detail),

- Part of the tiles at the common toilet is up.

- Plumbing pipping work is done.

- Aircon pipping is done.

- Service yard window frame is up.

When I am arrive there is only 1 uncle working on my MBR toilet. When I am taking the pic he ask me "Do I need a model and he will pose for me!!!" and we have a good chat about the work he is doing at my toilet, actually just build a wall to concealed my shower set.

I think very soon I have to do all my shopping liao, I really been dragging the shopping finger cross by than all the things I want will have stock if not really is going to be a big problem.

So here are some of the photo of the progress

MBR Toilet ( A super small toilet :( )

Common Toilet (Tiles are up)

Today I went to ideal bathroom to check out their toilet bowl, this is the one that I like, but I am thinking should I pay almost $700 for a WC?

Maybe I should just go for the Baron.

Bro hope a few outlets down to Wasserbath and I've got IXISS WC 2 sets for the price you mentioned:).

Was a toto buyer until I walked into the shop and saw their avail designs and the cost. Been using it since moving in and all's good one flush and all's gone :)

Man!! I was there and didn't take note of the prices of the IXISS WCs. Bah.... Hopefully mine are still ok.

And NextStep bro, I agree with DoubleEM! I think there are great WCs at lower price.

Day 19 - ( Shopping for WC )

Big thanks for doubleEM and bykaraanne suggestion, I make a trip down to Wasserbath in the afternoon.

I spend less than 30mins, I can make up my mind and got myself 2 IXSS WC (Model CT-1180A).

So one more item done, super happy.

I also went over to AN Digital Lock near Boon Keng, after spoken to the sales person,

Now I am so tempted to go for the bundle deal with the Sumsung Push and Pull + Yale Gate Digital lock @ $1390

They also quoted me for gate @ $550 and fire rated door @$880

Do you guys think is a good deal?

I think not a bad deal. Just make sure the door and gate can fit the digital locks properly.

Also is the fire rated door 1 pc or 2pcs type? Fit your exsiting place?

If I really decided to go for the digital lock will for sure give your contact a call to go over to take a look and give me a final quote.

Really want to be sure than sorry.

Yes I have to say I am super happy with the price, and your review give me much confident as well, that is why I really like this community here, everyone just share their experience and help each other out on this stressful (mind and pocket) period.

I can say the guy who serve me is also very helpful, happy with their service, and he told me this is a German Brand and made in Turkey, so I think will be good lah.

Thanks again.
