  1. Smartie is sick, so I reply.. Yes, 1/2" insulation is better because it won't condense easily.. Anyway, 1/2" is provided by default by gain city.. We didn't top for it, some aircon supplier requires top up..
  2. Even toilet bowls also have so much knowledge.. We didn't do flooring.. Perhaps that explains the easier cleaning.. After two and half days of cleaning, now I feel that the place is more like a home..
  3. Next Sat afternoon if anyone is keen.. Then you guys can guess what is new and what is old..
  4. The height of the vanity from floor is 200mm.. Height of entire vanity (excluding corian top is 440mm).. Corian top is 80mm.. In total, 720mm from the floor..
  5. Our place only did minimal renovation and it's already killing me.. I'm so glad that it's over.. Your place is very nicely renovated.. Sleek colours.. Should have a gathering soon for the bishanites.. hee..
  6. Officially locked the door today.. Now the home is ours! Spent half the day cleaning up, now our home is sparkling clean.. Still a bit more cleaning to go tomorrow.. But at least it's ready for the furnitures tomorrow.. hooray.. More pictures coming..
  7. Hee.. This kind of technical qn have to wait for Smartie to answer.. Smartie, where are you?
  8. Heard my name here.. Welcome to Bishan! Officially HO liao.. Very happy..
  9. The ID is really really dumb.. Ooppss.. Missed your earlier post.. Go back to measure and let you know tomorrow.. Yup, it's impt to leave enough gap between the shower screen and top.. At least 2 to 3" bah.. So far I dun have problems with wall mount basin, never heard of the mouldy part so far.. Think it depends on how big your toilet is, if the cabinet cannot be make bigger, no point having gaps in front and behind.. Yes.. Ours is 1 piece toilet bowl.. It's usually more expensive than the 2 piece ones.. Ours costs around $450 if i rem correctly.. Besides the fact that 1 piece ones are nicer, I find that it's easier to wipe.. It does not have as many corners as the 2 piece ones.. Other than that, I dun see much difference... Have fun here.. There's a lot of experienced forumers here who can give very good advice..
  10. It will help to protect your cabinet from some water.. So better top up.. It looks nicer to leave some gap in front of the basin.. As for the gap behind the basin, it depends if your basin is wall mount or not... It's a towel holder indeed.. Funny to have toilet paper hanging above..

    Heard that your hood is very big and ex ah.. hee.. Cannot make it to your home this weekend.. Smartie needs to work..
  12. The toilet is too small to sleep lah.. Now we have a bed that cannot be slept.. haiz.. Must buy Ti Lam.. More photos after the furnitures are in.. Stay tune! The entire area of our home is all earth colour.. No bright colours.. But now I'm thinking if it is a bit too boring.. hee.. The mirror is a storage box.. It didn't mean to be.. It was suggested by Uncle Soon.. Our common toilet does not have storage.. No time to take pics these few days, didn't mean to keep all of you in suspense.. More photos over the weekends..
  13. Yup.. He's good.. Sure, welcome all visitors..
  14. Yah.. I'm looking forward to being slightly fatter.. Cannot be too fat for my wedding..
  15. He's very helpful these few days, all my rectifications are done within these 2 days.. So he deserve a big big thank you from me.. So you dun need to worry with him as your PM! Maybe a bit bit more rectification from the fussy me.. But I must say they are things that i can live with..

    You have so much carpentry... I love your round round edged TV console.. And the circles laminate is nice, too bad it's not the TV console's laminate..
  17. Your lights are nice.. And that glass door divider makes the space bigger and brighter..
  18. You really need to go down and be very fierce to demand the correct chairs.. La Cafa's service is really bad, and we nearly bought our sofa from them..
  19. Looks like our home sweet home can finally be locked by us.. Thanks to Joseph kind assistance in getting all the necessary parties to our home these few days... Now it's the cleaning and cleaning and more cleaning time.. And sat, our furniture can be moved in..
  20. Hee hee.. I'm eating lots of fruits and regular meals.. But reno is indeed an effective way of sliming down.. I stopped all my exercises for this entire month and still can slim down.. haha.. Yah.. Tiling is the utmost impt thing now, the most headache it gives me as well..
  21. He only came today.. Yest should be at somewhere else bah.. Maybe you can paste some masking tape around to remind him.. Smartie actually prepared A4 docs for the electrician to install the things.. Which lights to install at where and drawings on the switch layout and stuff.. So far they didn't make any mistake..
  22. Yup yup.. I stole him today..
  23. Think the carpenters came in the morning to install the trousers rack.. After that, no more carpenters at my home.. It's all rest like tiler, electrician, Joseph, Uncle Soon and a few others .. I was also quite shocked to see so many people during lunch.. hee..
  24. Today, we went back to our home during lunch to see see look look and a lot of people turn up in our home.. Firstly, one tiler uncle was there to mend our hollow and uneven tiles.. Another cuter one helping to inject cement into some of the hollow tiles.. Recusing the uneven grouting lines that I find them irritating.. Then come Jospeh to inspect and think I must buy some toto over the weekends as Uncle Soon also came.. He helped to give some instructions and left after a while.. The electrician Ah Tan also came to finish up the outstanding electrical as the carpentry are more or less up.. And I think the other Uncle is elder goh with an indian man to arrange for the clean up once the things were more settled.. They only cleaned up the living room, bedrooms and cleaned my windows today I believe.. Status as of now is that and HO is tomorrow? 1) My toilet still need a bit more rectification on the tiles that is incomplete today 2) Ah Tan still has not drill a hole for my living room TV 3) Our hood is also 0.2cm bigger and now cannot go into the designated hood position.. Pending some new rescue work tomorrow 4) Realised a small tear in the cushion for our seatie, so now still pending the moving ahead approach from Joseph 5) Corian top might or might not arrive tomorrow. This is for installation in the MBR toilet. 6) Installation of toilet fittings, 6 items to go 7) Polish our shoe rack and the marble floor that fail to be polished previously 8) General clean up
