yeah...dangerous....mine sticks out quite a lot more...and hearing from my contractor...its gonna be hard to remove it. zzz

Nice house, Bad state you had in the beginning. Its like a fairy tale conversion, from a pumpkin to a nice fairy tale castle hahaha or rather from a 1980 HDB to a hotel look alike. MBR really look like hotel and love your open concept Kitchen. =D Btw mind taking picture of the stairs from level 1? as my stairs railing ends with quite a big piece sticking out, quite a safety concern. Just wanted see how does yours look like. =D

Yeah, guess clean and bright sounds pretty close to what we wanted. Also waiting for the Kitchen to be done up...zzzz taking way too long. The stainless steel railing was left behind by the previous owner...one of the very few things that i left behind hahah looks good with the current stairs =D Currently looking at your T-blog too =D

Finally settled on the lights for dinning and stairs. end of the day, still got the one that i liked best =D Stairway Light Dinning lights Balcony Lights Recess Area Light

So far so good, but haven finish yet. =D

Still stuck without my dining, stairs and WIW lights...zzz gotta get them soon MBR Toilet Glassware Common Toilet. Level 1 Toilet. Kitchen Sliding Glass Walls

Back from the land of thousand smiles, THAILAND. Update on the house, left with some glass works, touching up of parquet and carpentary. Matching Window Grills and Gate Balcony...love the wall tiles. Stairs

Tiling completed, Parquet been delivered and painting to commence too

ya didn't notice the difference in units hahaha

Yeah think that 1 way to solve the bigger crooks lolx. The only big problem with the ceiling is at my MBR, now i know why the previous owner did false ceiling for the MBR already hahah =D But i wun be doing it, as there will be a partiton for the WIW and 1/2 the room will have a 10cm platform, don't wan the room ceiling to look too low. We are also not having false ceiling, L BOX and what not for the whole house. (yeah.. nothing to conceal the wiring etc) The rest are crooked beam...so guess only plastering? =D btw, thanks bro! Guess from SGK, the false ceiling works out to be approx $22.5 psf. (70sqm for $1600) false ceiling sounds like the way to solve the problem, glad that at least its able to help you. Do consider it =D

Minor crooked walls etc can be solved by plastering...too jia lat...abit bo bian..live with it, like my MBR ceiling as u can see from the picture.

congratZ bro! ahhaha cant wait for your transformation =D

Just got back from the new house, whats completed is the tiling for kitchen and access area. Balcony tiling is almost done too. Kitchen Tiling all done up Tiling at balcony...love the change. Think its the new tiles and the white wall that makes the balcony look so much nicer. Major problem...from the wonderful HDB builders from old times... Notice that the wiring casing is not straight...thats due to the ceiling not being level in the first place. This problem can be found throughout the whole house. Beams in the house are never straight...causing problems when u install glass panels, when your tiles have excessive gaps due to the wall not being straight and when u try to run electrical wiring around the house....just UGLY man.

Does it teach us how to play with tones of a colour? like 2-3 tones of 1 colour in a room? =D do share the more applicable info with us when u are more free. thanks!

Gate and grills **** fast 1...the rest shouldn't take too long too =D must post pic when your nice stairs is done up and did you take pictures of your parquet? hahah must have missed the page if u did.

Yo momo, just wondering how much you got for that table? looking getting the same table too. =D Yo kopi, whats left with your reno? carpentry? parquet flooring up yet? only managed to read back a few pages...super long t-blog =)

Tiling works continued... Wall Tiles for Kitchen done Preparation for Kitchen Floor Tiling Beam constructed for the Kitchen glass panels By tml, the balcony and kitchen should be done up and tiling will all be completed. Should be expecting the painters to come tml and lights to be up soon. Water works and upstairs flooring / carpentary will have to wait till CNY over. zzz

Doesn't make sense, as corner units doesn't have windows along the corridor.. and also..some guys install fixed grills on windows along the corridor, thus cant escape from there too. can try debating with them using the above 2 reasons. =D

Tiling MBR Toilet 1/2 Done 2nd Toilet Lvl 1 Wash Area Kitchen Wall

Finally the HDB access area renovation is approved and the metal gate is instantly up. =D Metal gate from the outside Metal gate from the inside Hole at the Access Area (Possible Shoe Rack Area) Currently, the wall next to the access area has been hacked away and thinking of how to design that area. Open to all ideas, thinkin of building a shoe rack there...

Been quite busy..with both work and the house...some updates. Tiles selection...(was done quite some time ago) To keep things simple, we chose the same floor tiles for all 3 toilets and kitchen, and chose a slightly different wall tile for the kitchen. thereafter, the only other place that requires tiles are the balcony and recess which uses the same tiles. not too fanciful. =D Toilet wall tiles Kitchen wall tiles Kitchen and Toilet floor tiles Toilet tiles comparison Balcony tiles comparison Wall tiles on the top and floor tiles on the bottom, floors tiles are the same for the access area.

Really busy with work recently, but words has it that my roller shutter is completed! cant wait to go down and take a look at the new roller shutter and the tiling job this weekend =D Btw..we are having problems choosing paint color for the house...how to accurately see what the color will turn out after being painted for the house...and wat colour combi is good...zzzz any help?
