It does look like it's of good quality... Can doors be built over them?
-
mm After hacking the walls will be very very rough. So need more work to cement and plaster. So hacking+cement+plaster, Uncle was going to quote me close to 1k+. But cementing without hacking, Uncle agreed to do it for me free. It was my dad who wanted to plaster, then Uncle quoted $300. So I saved a lot...

Mine's plaster over tiles = cement wall. I like the clean look actually though I admire the patterned walls some forummers have. hehe
-
haha I have a dad who's meticulous and inspected every packet of tiles not just the top one off the stack. I'm kinda forced to be more detailed. I also kept everything properly cos my parents weren't 100% satisfied with the selections so I had to keep them and show them... "THERE YOU ALL CHOOSE ONE."

mm the first storey toilet looks interesting.. why is there that space above it? mmm such a high ceiling? ohhh then I looked at the staircase picture.. and I realised.. yours is private ah? aiyah.

I Love the white sofa... but I can feel your heartache when your doggies jump on them!! I would pull my hair out!
-
mmm Rounded corners for tiled bases is really tougher for the tiler! Nice job!
-
That time, I brought all my samples to the house I pasted masking tape on them (With the correct places written) and placed them on the tiles delivered. I also went through with the main tiler how the tiles were placed. And after that, my dad also went through with them how HE wanted the tiles placed. They obviously listened to him.

hehe You're welcome! But I agree with Yokine. While waiting why not collect more quotations? It's always good to collect some and make a well-informed choice.

$750 ah... mmm ok ok thank you hehe. mm about this lighting issue. I don't have an L-box also. But now I really regret. I think an L-box with well placed lights controlled by 2 switches will help to save electricity. Because my living is big I have three lights and a total of 9 energy saving bulbs but each is about 18watts which comes up to 167 if they are all turned on and it's still not very bright!! I see mrspiglet house... just 6 of those downlights can be quite bright already. And the energy consumption is much lower... Aubrey Your little pipes at the top corners can be concealed by the L-box.

Alan should be working under Ah Soon ba. they are co-managing.. but I haven't dealt with him before. You got his number from Ah Soon? Glad you met up with Yeak also. He does seem like a good one too.

-
MmM Uncle should get an *ang mor* name also.... Sounds good. Yours definitely has more to do but it does look like the progress is going on well. Currently, we can see yours, Ivy's, Aubrey's and growler's going on... who else? mm
-
WHO IS ALAN? *more and more people...* heh Good for the uncles so that they can look after the work better. The tiler in your Common toilet and the one on the left in your kitchen are my tilers too! WAH you have 6 tilers?! so many!! Does that mean your kitchen is done already?
-
