  1. *dunno why cannot quote and reply* Jupiter >> the tiles look smooth but there are slightly rough. So they wouldn't be slippery. mmycheng>> exactly what we were trying to tell her. She really doesn't know the meaning of service. I'm glad I'm in this forum so that I can warn some people about her. Thank you! luckable>> Nope she didn't say anything like that. I do know of people who have their taps on the solid surface. But I thought that kitchen sinks are like toilet sinks.. some come with holes some don't. I do hope after these two days I don't have to deal with her anymore.
  2. ya.. if you choose not to hack whole house... must remind them to use hand to hack when it's near the rooms. Otherwise if they use machine the tiles will definitely spoil. Agree on the last part. They can make it higher to match the rooms hehe. Have to agree with mwerkz though.. 25k is a little difficult.
  3. WAH can really see it taking shape liao. You'll definitely be faster than me! Mine's still a mess!!! mm the door grille thing really quite bad.. mm
  4. Wah welcome welcome! hope to see pictures!
  5. I also bought the Sino Quilt stuff!! and the Super single Sino bedsheets! yay! Ya I really talking to her... yup she is. *surprised you saw* hehe That delivery man provided BETTER service than her..
  6. hehe I want to move before 2009. And for now it still seems like we can make it so I'm happy enough. WAH your flooring very nice. And I like how the 2-tone has turned out!!
  7. mmm well at least she showed some sincerity by calling back minutes later to arrange. So *keep fingers crossed for you*
  8. mm carpentry this week. measurements taken and given to the factory to start work already...
  9. Floor plan can get it almost immediately after you submit purchase. you should get an email. mmm As for your electrical.. new points they will charge you but shifting old points you can try to get FOC. Acid Wash can try to get free but Haulage cannot. Cos they have to rent the truck and need to pay workers to haul. I also noticed that in your plans... You're thinking of hacking the living and retaining the ones in the room to overlay with laminate.. Your workers have to be very very careful when they hack cos they cannot damage the tiles in the bedroom too much especially when they hack to the door. Also it'll be a bit uneven as the bedroom floor is much higher now...
  10. WAH rem to take photos! Excited to see your stuff too!
  11. mm??? but yours so so much ahead of mine. But we did set a deadling for him... and that's 27th Dec. We wish to move by 28th and 29th.
  12. mmm My contractor wanted to charge me $450... Then I acted very ke lian. Then he say OK OK LA!
  13. mm I don't think 1.2inch makes a lot of difference? especially since it's in height. As long as you guys like the table ba. I do hope you get your glass proper. Small mistakes can be tolerated as long as they are rectified asap.
  14. yup so we really understand how it feels to deal with irritating sales people. I cannot stand spending money to be angry. Yuppers. We're cementing the walls (no plastering) to cut cost as we don't cook much anyway. The contractor is doing this part FOC.
  15. ya.... Lucky not you call her otherwise you would have YA! She's so irritating right? It's her responsibility to ask and yet she says it's my fault for not telling. urgh Yes yes I do hope I don't have to hear from her again after Monday. WAH the Aussino sales sounds very good le! mmm maybe tomorrow should go!!! haha can buy bedsheet for CNY. Exactly... we don't buy sinks all the time ma. And toilet sinks have two sorts, some with holes and some without. So I assumed that kitchen sinks were the same. Sigh. I do hope I can get rid of her soon. So EVERYONE REMEMBER. JOJO = NONO!
  16. Wah I love the MBR sink set... SWEE!
  17. Most of the wiring done. waiting for skirting and painting to be done before lights and switches are fixed. Delivery Saga from Yesterday Eestilo de Vida's people came. They delivered everything. Everything was numbered according to the invoice so it was pretty easy to ensure everything was here. The delivery man was also very friendly and allowed us to open everything and inspect. But one of the two Baron WC had some paint problems on its cover. We called Eestilo and they were nice enough to allow us to withhold some of the money. We made partial payment to the delivery man and the staff would arrange for the Baron people to come down and change the cover for us, after which I will make the rest of the payment to the office itself. Pretty reasonable I'd say... The problem came with Viva Nueva (THAT JOJO INCIDENT ... NOW PART 2) The kitchen sink we ordered from them did not have a hole for the kitchen tap. BUT the one in the showroom had. So when we ordered we assumed that there would be a hole. The delivery man was very good. Though reluctant, but he immediately offered to bring the sink back to drill. But I was thinking about the payment part, as I didn't want to pay in full when I have not received everything. So I called the showroom and Jojo picked up *AGAIN* I explained to her that we expected a hole as the showroom one had. Her response: OH. All sinks don't come with holes one what. If you want then we drill for you.. You must tell us. Since we aren't professionals at buying sinks and DON'T BUY sinks EVERY WEEK.... how would we know that sinks don't come with holes?!!! With that in mind, I told her that we wanted the hole. Her response: You have a contractor right?? Then you ask him to drill la. I TOLD HER OFF STRAIGHT AWAY: THEN IF SPOIL WHO PAY?! She was quiet for 5 seconds. Then she responded: BUT YOU MUST TELL US WHAT.... Some customer want to undermount some want to put on counter so we don't drill unless you ask us to. I refused to respond to that statement and told her that we've already asked the delivery man to bring it back and that he agreed. I then added that I can only pay a portion as I only accepted the hob. Jojo : "CANNOT CANNOT.. YOU WAIT YOU WAIT.. What is your invoice number?? You tell me I see..." Me: "31XXX" Jojo: "I SEE AH... HOW MUCH IS YOUR HOB??? YOU PAY LA... err I see ah..." Jojo: "YA err you still owe us $387... liddat you pay half la. Err $200 also can.. $187 also can." ISN'T THAT WHAT I SAID TO HER IN THE FIRST PLACE??????? THEN WHY SHE CANNOT CANNOT SO LOUDLY?! WAH LIAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I really regret buying from her. PEK CHEKKKKK
  18. Whoa. will tell sis.. did you go the Aussino one? *********************************** Progress Update... Kitchen completely done with skirting also. lay piping for sink.... Embed the wiring behind the cement. cementing of kitchen walls started today too! Tiled living. without skirting...
  19. mmm like my common toilet in the kitchen? cannot put wall only. MBR toilet can.
  20. hello! Welcome! Instead of getting reno mags you can just surf the web.. lots of pictures! *surf ID websites to steal ideas* hehe Good luck hunting!
  21. mm I will. But.. cos I have the luxury of being there every day I can probably stop things from happening.. poor you... Get him to change soon ya? I'm sure he will scold the workers...
  22. haha I do hope there will be an "own place". Looking forward to more pictures!!
  23. oooooooo ok. hahaha Aiyah I read your msg too quickly. Now that I read it again it makes more sense. haha I went to your T blog and realised that you have 3D drawings... which my contractor didn't give. I'm so blur.
  24. Wah your grilles quite nice... Aiyah I don't have money to change both windows and grilles so yours is good!! I like the door grille too!
  25. OH NO... ... ask him to change la... wrong set of WC means what? common and MBR swopped?
