babytan

just to share how much packing i have done, pic showed part of 24 boxes and still counting............

@ Nellynutt & piknik hahahah i am no superwoman la, actually overseeing the reno is not that difficult... if i am not please with anything, just need to talk to ID and he will do something, i am using my mouth and eyes only so far the only difficulty i encounter is tat due to unforseen circumstances, have to make decision on the spot as my hubby not supposed to be involve in the reno and was busy at work, so very difficult to call him and describe the scenario at that point of time... so i have to be decisive other than that, taking pics, checking out the progress ok la as my baby goes to childcare from 9am-4pm guess wat is actually siong now?? hahahahahha PACKING!!! am fighting for time as i do all the packing alone, once baby back, i will be tied down by him i also work from home, timing can be very flexible but ultimately i still need to spare some time to work...TIRED lo @ Terencetcw eh i got my lightings and sanitary all from Budget Lights & Bath at Midview City we really dun have much time to go around as compared to my first reno imagine bringing a baby along to choose all these is really tedious! either we are mentally or physically tired hahahahha i only spend $4080 on all items, maybe you can take a look at what i bought later, lights shd be up this week WC, heater, basin etc done already lo

hi nelly, think i came across your thread before... were you the 1 tat engaged mr chang and hubby cant be involved in reno till move in? if yes, you are the one hahahha cos your scenario exactly same as mine!! i also 1 woman show, shiong but then i am enjoying every part of it hahahahah we have to move out of current place on 5th dec so no choice lo, got to rush a bit helping hands quote quite standard 14 footer $280 with 20 carton boxes if not on lift level, add $25 each level dismantling $20-25 each add 7% GST for your comparison

some updates with just 11 days left, ID and workers are working at their FULL SPEED...vroom vroom tiling - done painting - in progress carpentry - in progress windows and doors - this week laminate flooring - early next week busy busy packing now, we have engaged The Helping Hands, will review on their services later =) cant wait to see the carpentry!! as we have choose something not our usual style...stay tuned some pics: living room common toilet master toilet kitchen MBR

some pics update: my tilers worked on sun and PH, appreciated their hardwork and rewarded them with some food and drinks hahaha workmanship wise seems ok to me (at the moment!) ahhahah Kitchen wall common toilet feature toilet wall tiles plastering think all tiling should be completed by this week

nice 3Ds, like the kitchen colour esp the greyish solid top innovative of you to put up the notices, hahahaha maybe i can copy cat also

yo cents bro, my BIG piece of "wood" is here hahahah looked a bit boring as compared to yours but we are going for woody feel, so... looked like above but ask him to do some design la

3Ds 1st Draft looks abit boring hor, but safety more impt as i have a very x 100 active toddler.... already asked ID to make some changes to console and kitchen

my previous 1 also duno wat brand solid top but i tink 1 grade lower than corian and i swear that i never want to use the same 1 again cos it will kana stain very fast and i cant remove the stain...zzzz sumore can turn yellowish at some corners...biangzzz i go and ask him wat brand, if compared to yours, then my $120psf is cheap liao ya he did told me that need to pay for cutting and polishing but i think they just used left over to cut and depending on the size you want lo

can kapo how much is the silestone top? i also looking at quartz leh, ask my ID about silestone, he say this branded 1 hohoh he quoted me for quartz about $120 psf, my bottom cabinet about 15.5 long, siong sia.... we got the same concept for the shower shelvings, so meaning they can do a cut out from the balance ah?? else i got to ownself buy leh

is the "special" hinge expensive? yours is veneer door right? the kitchen tap look abit like shower head hahahahaha, can bath there or not kekekeke (joking ah) eh you heven tell me how much is your lader leh

thanks for the contact your book shelf fits nicely leh, from ikea also? how much ah? i am intending to get similar 1 but hor, tat wall will be painted like feature wall, so if i gonna put it there then no point painting leh, tot of placing a smaller 1 next to door (when we enter room..) wat you think? cos i tink we got similar layout in the room, windows also same position hhahaha

hi guys, which is nicer? think i will get sanitary and lights from budget lights as i went to jalan besar yesterday, price wise, budget lights is giving me better offer i dun think we are going for very good quality kinds, mid range will do this basin and tap only $149 anyone heard of ORIN WC? sales told me this is european brand wor, 1 or 2 piece ok with me, most impt is that the sides is flat for easy washing (hope you understand wat i meant)

4) my flat also got a same pattern AC as your yours but owner dismantle liao and everything looks ok 5) this is good leh, more storage lo your toilet pipes more "tekong" than mine hahahah tot mine already very out of the way, boxing up pipes will definately make the toilet smaller but neater and easier to wash my current flat common toilet pipes are boxed up whereas master is not, so i really see a hugh difference esp when washing toilet lolz not easy to wash those pipes leh, got to scrub like mad and the paint will drop over time BUT danger of boxing up pipes are that if in any case of leakage, jialut, got to remove everything my ID also commented that actually box up toilet pipes not approved but i seen many ppl doing that leh bedframe i have a contact of making bedframe and sort of can customize as my fren have done his thru this person and mentioned tat is from king koil, i have spoken to her but have not seen the sample yet, so if you want, i can pass you the contact..

hahahah just saw your lader pic after my reply kekekek nice leh but i am still in dilemma of whether to choose the pull out over this.... ID quoted me lader for full height cabinet at $400 (4 tiers) but i duno how tall la yours looked like 5 tier ah, share with me how much leh kekekke
