Closely following this T-Blog..hehe luckily or unluckily... yes... all tiles (kitchen/toilets) were replaced, all sanitary fittings (toilet bowls, basin, taps) was also replaced by HDB... in fact if you comprain to them, likelihood they will replace all for you... but you have to bear with them as it take up to a month to have all these replaced Edited August 1, 2007 by kon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I dun like the kitchen and wall tiles, very obiang...No, I only taking out the windows and door. I dun think will need such a big kitchen. Besides, if hack will need to retile whole kitchen. So not prepared to spend that kinda of money. So will bear wif it. HDB tiles are mostly quite bad. Especially the older ones like ours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I tried to knock the tiles but in the end gave up. Seems ok. Not hollow sounding to me. Maybe I not so professional in knocking. So didnt find any defects wif the tiles. I guess since the tiles have been sticking to the walls for 5 yrs liao, dun think will drop lah. haha. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
