resso99 0 Report post Posted August 1, 2007 Master Bedroom (Concealed toilet)Master Bedroom Adjoining bedroom2Bedroom 2 with existing wardrobeBedroom 3Bed with headboardHey eric...thanks..I managed to upload the pics here...About the pillar, I am thinking of having the beam straight too.As for the adjoining rooms, I am thinking of having a glass partition that will separate the master bedroom and bedroom 2. Initially, we thought of putting the wall back but shrug off the idea after looking at the teeny weeny master bedroom. So an ID actually suggested that putting a glass partition instead of the wall.We should be going for contractor as we have this feeling that IDs can be a tad too pricey for us.

Tesoro, maybe you want to consider painting over some of the cabinets to change the colour or laminate them or something? coz they look like good solid wood to me... just a thought...

resso99 0 Report post Posted August 1, 2007 Hi JamezFor the master bedroom and adjoning bedroom 2, everything will go.As for the bomb shelter, the contractor told us to change the doors to something simple. As for the false wall in the living room, he said he can do something to it.For the toilets, we are going to overlay the floor tiles but not the wall tiles. The contractor told us that wall tiles not easy to overlay...coz it's glossy and not matt and the "glue" might not stick..aiyo..all these reno mambo-jumbo is giving me a headache.Is there anyone who has a good contractor to recommend? Can send it to my email : resso99@gmail.comBtw, can someone pls explain to me what does "Approved contractors" mean for RHB reno loan? Do we have to ask every contractor that comes along whether they are the "approved contractor"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
