Nothing wrong.I have been to my neighbours unit, during reno and after reno...during reno...everything seem like very messy and dusty. After reno...wowla...it change!! It really changed!Have a good rest and enjoy the progress.HAPPY!! so sianz.. every nite when i close my eyes on my bed.. the ugly carpentry works keep flashes in my mind.. can't sleep.. 2am+ fell asleep but woke up 4am.. my christmas was not a merry one.. 满汉全席 + 雪鱼汤．． 都变得无味 robinson's private preview sales.. not feeling shiok at all.. 人地Ｄ柜都係直既．．． 唯独是我既係Ｓ边．． !!

HDB? 中国建筑? homeguide? carpenters? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
h4happy 1 Report post Posted December 27, 2007 Hi XLANHow come your id carpentry head never inform you that it is not streight during the measurement? At least before the carpentry works started, inform you first about the problem. Right?Ask your id how come never tell me?Ask your id to rectify the problem.HAPPY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zlia 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2007 Hello Xlan, my ID told me b4 that normally HDB ceiling and wall is not straight one. I wanted to put wallpaper border on the top part of the wall just below the ceiling, but my ID said not advisable, cos of that reason lor. But anyway, when we knew the price, we didnt wanna do it also la. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
