Very dusty and noisy ba. Lock all your precious jewellery and money, as there are worker going in and out of your house. Some kaypoh neighbour would come in without permission (since your gate and door is wide open) They would look see look see like their own house. Ask how much your reno cost and this and that.

Kronofix is definitely not Kronotex. 2 different brand. But kronofix is from germany. Ace laminate i dunno from where so no comment. All depend on your budget for doing laminate. If you intend to throw in more, then go for a better brand and better range. If you need contact for the quotation of laminate, feel free to PM me for the contact.

How much are they quoting u for ur power dekor?

Pergo Practiq consider the top range liao.

i thought u emphasize on "painting of a road in between the moutains and lakes" Your link shows only mountain and road. I didn't see any lakes.

But Westerner don't trap their dogs or cats in a cage. They let their pets roam around the house and backyard. Some western country is a pets friendly country where pet is allow into the mall, cafe, restaurant. Unlike singapore. You let your dog sit on the chair in a hawker centre, next thing u see is a NEA officer coming to you. Coz not all ppl like dogs.

So Does the painting look like this or look like this

If Condo, most contractor or ID would quote u more expensive. Your expensive item is carpentry and chengai wood. Just this 2 is cost 12K liao. But overall is quite ok. As u already got so many carpentry work.

Although the lighting shop is not around but they still have a warehouse in jurong. If u want u could call them up and check their new address. Point One Lighting(used to be in Jalan Besar)- 9765-4023 (Their price is quite reasonable)

why don't change to those flat stainless steel type. I think the price is $160 - $190.

I think Huijie fsm mean "Pets Trapped in a small cage". Comparing to zoo, i think our cage is very small. To me i think small cage means no area of movement. Those keeping their pets in kitchen boundary should be ok ba. At least could run from one end to another end.

u got try ikea

Seal up the master bedroom toilet? Then in the middle of the night if wanna go toilet still have to go and use the common toilet (so mafan). Do you have a floor plan? Easier to see from the layout.

Quite misleading actually

I hate contractor doing quotation without breakdown. Give me a feeling like purposely wanna leave out something. Nevermind, i take a quick browse see whether can breakdown more neater. Care to PM me your contractor. Waiting to see their workmanship.

Room inside a Room. Some FSM say it is no good. Coz in chinese we call it "FANG ZHONG FANG" so in some way or somehow it means husband is keeping a mistress outside (touchwood). I don't quite believe in this saying, what do u guys thinks?

Out in the market there are a lot of brand of water purifier. Those better one are thousand over dollars. As for me i'm using Marvello water purifier and ionizer. Bought mine from Kemp Trading@$1388. http://www.kemptrading.com/ If you still think that it is expensive, I know of a shop at thomson plaza #01-59 selling the 2nd Hand Diamond Water Purifer at $500+

Wash the blower lor. Homefix got sell the Concaire solution and you can clean your aircon yourself.

dun worry so much. whatever spolit need to change means gotta change

close one eye lor. unless u are a perfectionist.

Contractor have this bad habit that dunno purposely or what. They like to lump everything together to make the home owner confuse. They don't like to breakdown the costing transparently to the owner. They afraid the of revealing ah. sometimes so piss with their attitude. If you somehow found some loophole that they purposely left out from the quotation, they would brush it off saying "aiya forget to add in" , "dun worry! will do for you one, even though not inside quotation." This kind of price, i think my id can quote better than them. Note: I just do a quick browsing and i may miss some detail.

Both Having their PROs & CONs. Stainless Steel - Over some time it would change to darker colour. - Dun need to paint - Not so bendable like copper one. Therefore there would be a lot of L-Joint & T-Joint in your kitchen and bathroom. Copper - Need to paint - Some ppl feels that it is more lasting. - Price is about the same as stainless steel. - Bendable

Orh. Kelantan lane, somewhere near ah boy bike shop is it. There is some hardware shop near there. Blk 30 Kelantan lane and Blk 31 Kelantan Road that side lor .
