Wastage On Laminated Flooring
santav replied to poison1's topic in Ceiling, Walls and Flooring Works
materials wastage is bound to occur in any construction works....the contractor can either built-in the cost of wastage into his base price or quote you on the net area/price and add in a reasonable wastage.....to me, what's most important is the total price you, as the purchaser, have to pay for the works. -
i'm using china made ones which retails between $2.20 to $3.80 psf.

Hi, I'm thinking of using back my old National & KDK brand ceiling fans after my house reno. However, I think I will need to replace the fan speed regulator. Can anyone advise where I may get these regulators (and approx cost) and if I need to use the same brand as the fan or any fan regulator will do? Many thanks.

yes it's available almost everywhere...however has anyone used the cheaper brand like "soundtech". it's seems value for your $ comparing against reown brand like freisland (not sure of spelling) which cost alot more. comments appreciated.

Hickson Decor Woodstain For Painting Timber Deck
santav replied to Butoot's topic in Home Maintenance & Repairs
Must it be Hickson Decor? I saw in Ikea they have wood stains for outdoor timber...dunno what brand though... -
i believe it's water hammer....its got to do with air trapped within the pipes.....no easy to solve if it's caused by the way the pipings are routed. does it occur only when 1 particular tap is on? u may need to go thru the process of elimination to narrow down the problem area. good luck!
-
are you using a hot/cold mixer tap on cold water only piping?
-
if i may ask, why are you looking for a filter system for the whole house? .....esp in SG where our pipe water is touted to be of the highest standards....

your SIL F&P fridge is quite old, maybe there's a leak on its insulation thereby resulting in its freezing up. my 14yo goldstar is also freezing up lately.....realised it's due to lack of ventilation at the backside...hence i pulled out the fridge alittle giving about 4" gap between it & the wall.....it's now working great!
