mine uncle wanted to meet the aircon guy before the flooring is done, cos he says he wants to conceal part of the pipe?! Usually the aircon trunking can run after flooring is done best to confirm with uncle so that you can make the arrangements

sigh...my renovation is bottlenecked now... The approval for my hacking of the wall between my access balcony and study has been delayed for so long by HDB that I have been waiting for...my work is now bottlenecked!!! My flooring cannot be done due to this!!! How I hate HDB for the slow process...it's almost 2 weeks!!!

finally saw your own blog I hope things will turn out good for you...uncle has a few new staff to help him manage the increasing workloads and projects. But they are still very new, so uncle has to let them learn on the job...i hope things will turn better soon. As for shifting in...try to avoid it if the works are still on going...it's very inconvenient.

Lawry, I reply on beha;f od aubrey. I think uncle charges like $150pfr. But then he gives good discounts and freebies... Wonder they lock up yours is it because Weiken complained or probably the unethical disclosure of your personal info?

aubrey, how long will your whole reno take? So cool to just stay next door, but the packing and unapcking also jialat...I hate the unpacking part of it...

this is really nice and it looks comfy!!! White needs quite some effort in maintaining

it looks nice I agree with energy saving...but I do not bake so extensively so it is ok right? hehe... Wendy, wana ask u again...can share with me the model and the price u got for the ventilation fan from KDK? Am "conning" Hubby into getting it for my bathroom!

i agree leh...Ivy, ask Brian to tell him about the drawers...my man is fascinated when he saw Wendy's and how i went goo-goo-ga-ga with him on the way back home telling him about the drawers...he is happy with the pricing So i will get my BLUM :)

You may want to check with Uncle? Cos i specifically told him I wanted better tilers and his "disciple" who was with him on that day says he will use his brother (he mentioned they are certified) to do my tilings.

Ashes, I am a little affected after reading all your posts. But I guess Uncle is really having too many projects on hand and getting on our toes these few weeks during the reno is good too...at least we are involved in this whole thing, tho i do prefer it if Uncle is able to help me manage more of it I hope so too...I manage to call Ah Hai, but he wanted me to call HDB myself instead! Wendy, Ivy replied u on this We are using the same folks, so I think once mine is settled, it will be Ivy's turn

Oh dear...I hope all these will be over for you soon...

I assume it's Wendy posting now I got my Ariston oven...if u ask me, I will still opt for Ariston And oh...I am so in love with your drawers...Hubby finally nodded his head when I told him I wanted something like yours after seeing how useful it will be for me I hope the handover will be hassle free...if your tv feature wall ready? Can post the picture for me??

Went to our place today...nothing much, the workers were still working when we were there at 3-ish. The hacked walls were "smoothen" with cement already Balcony Kitchen Walkway on level 2 common toilet The kids' room new wall Uncle confirmed that the tilings will be starting on Monday, that is tomorrow! Since Hubby's work place is nearer, he is tasked to drop by and monitor the progress of the works. I will not be able to pop by daily as it is pretty tiring for me. I hope the instructions given to uncle will be conveyed to the workers.

cool! another "eye-bag-dark-eye-circle" member!

booy, he called me this afternoon...and said he is back! He even wana arrange for my aircon guy to pop by on monday to discuss on trunking.

Uncle's back!!! U can start bugging him!!

i agree that u should postpone the trip too...once the pandemic of this swine flu is over, u can also have fun with a peace of mind

it's a nice place...100% move in i would say...

ashes, u should clarify with uncle. Seeing both your and fondue's it really reminds me to be more diligent in monitoring the progress...

the condition is pretty neat! Even the kitchen is still so well-maintained. But u are right, having our own kitchen is kinda important U have a great wifey who wana save money for u!

In my opinion is also not to give in. Since it is a defect that cannot be "covered up", why livewith it? Have it changed. Suchthings are tolast us for years, why accept when you are not comfy with its existence?

Uncle's price is really attractive...looking at ur saga, it dawned on me that be it an ID or contractor, whoever can do the job well is a job well done! I do not need fanciful drawings, but common sense in terms of works...

seeing a few on Uncle's latest projects and feedbacks, I really have to worry about mine too...I half-suspect that similiar thing will happen to me eventho uncle guarantees that he will use better workers for my house and Ivy's. I know uncle takes pride in his works, but being overloaded, I am sure he won't be too meticulous in all QC checks. Guess end of the day, I will be able to manage the whole project well enough.

Hiera, that's a good place to put the altart I guess Lawry, another reno for u?

so sorry to hear about this ashes...i tink u need to talk to uncle as he really vlaues al jobs, just that they are overloaded...
