Pics! Finally!

mmm... mine is itemised. I prefer to see the items that are included or not included so that I can have a feel of the works that are going to be done. You can visit my blog to see the itemised list. Anyway, good luck with your reno.

My quote is for everything. Think is cos I reno almost whole house. If individually make 1 mirror, then I'm not sure about the price. But generally, his pricing seems reasonable to me.

pm u.

Hmm... mine is pretty much smaller. Abt 1.0x m x 2.5 m for $200 by ID.

Tks. Ok. Want to take photos too but a bit odd leh. Kitchen no cabinets. Kitchen sliding glass door cover only 2/3 of entrance cos cabinet partition not in yet. No. Not everything cos some I move myself, mainly smaller boxes to save moving cost. Cos I spot check on new house, so everytime go there, take some stuff go. Price wise, pm you.

So we have officially moved in, even though the works in the house are not completed. Whew... so busy the past few days and also no telephone line so could not surf the internet. Hmm... comments on the vendors, based on my opinions. 1. CYC Movers - Very efficient and good service. Worthed the $. Say 9-9.30am reach, on day itself 8.45am reach downstairs liao. 9am came up. 4 guys in uniform, polite and friendly. Everything moved quite fast and the piano, wah, the piano they wrapped until so nice - shrink wrap, bubble wrap, shrink wrap, cardboard base, shrink wrap! Leave old house, use trolley. Go new house, all carry in except piano. Not rough too. Excess stuff, they stuff into boxes and charge by boxes. So I got extra 14 boxes and I only need to top up $28. Everything 1 trip. 2. Cellini Furniture - On time delivery. Salesman sms me delivery time and date. All in good condition. 3. V-hive - On-time too. Sms me too. The guy really know how to enjoy life! Switch on fan himself while installing 2 desks! Good condition. 4. AMK HQ (Beng Wah Group) - Called up day before to inform me that they could not deliver on Sat, asked if can do so on Mon. I said ok. Mattress and frame came separately. Mattress delivered by Dunlopillo. Both on time and also in good condition. 5. Lighting.com.sg - Good after sales service. Glass frame cracked. Called them and they replaced it 2/3 days later. 6. Universal Union - After installing everything, realise got 2 valves never use and 1 toilet holder that could not fit into a small space. Went back to change the 3 items. Service was good. In fact, very good cos we really remove and change many items quite a few times until both sides confused. Cool and calm saleslady.

Hey! Same! I also go down everyday to the new house to look see look see. Then call id and tell him this and that. And as for schedule, I also never receive. But so far still ok lah.

xie xie. Hoping for the best for the weekend. You too, jia you, ok?

Hmm.. actually, after move in, only left kitchen cabinets, installation of hob, hood and sink and bedroom wardrobes. These, my id say, will take 2 wks to make and fix. But we bo bian must move in this weekend. So I think after we move in, there won't be any works until about 2 wks later when the carpentry comes in. Then probably tahan dirt and mess for a day or 2. At least can sleep and bath there. Food can always buy outside, no need to cook yet.

Me too me too. But pic must wait cos I moving on tmr and Sat, so think I'll be going siao tmr.

Hi, I'm doing glass door too. Think my house will be similar to yours. Lots of glass. Toilet door - glass, showerscreen - glass, kitchen entrance - huge glass

No lah. I'm actually a tortoise. I already do shopping in March even though reno is in June. And then change and change items until I paiseh. My toilet stuff I went to Universal Union at Geylang. Quite near Paya Lebar MRT (Circle line).

Hi froggy, Ya, getting a mover to move heavy stuff and 10 heavy boxes. The rest probably will move ourselves. Kind of worried for the piano that's why tried to find good movers. Mmm... I suppose it's quite fast. Really crossing fingers that move in in 2 days' time would be shun shun.

Wah, this week would be terrible for us. 1. First, we hope that Kelvin would be able to finish up the house (Excluding wardrobes and kitchen cabinets) by tomorrow or Thursday. 2. Cellini sending furniture in Thursday. 3. AMK HQ sneding mattress and frame on Sat. 4. House movers moving on Sat morning. 5. Haven't call V-hive yet. 6. Clear old house by Sat. 7. Handover keys to new owners on Sunday. So, we are moving in on Saturday but the house is not ready yet. Kelvin said that he would get the house ready in move-in condition minus carpentry. Considering that today is exactly 4 weeks from start of reno, I would say 'not bad' liao. Floor, wall, pipes, electrical, false ceiling, window grille, parquet floor, sanitary included. He said that tomorrow they would complete painting, door painting, installation of glass doors and screen, door knobs and lockset, installation of lights. Crossing fingers now. Today went to find id. He showed me 3D of kitchen cabinets. Nice. But too bad, could not bring home cos he need to make some modification. I also made last minute change to the laminates to use. He heard that and panicked! But he's a nice guy. Immediately called up his carpenter and told them to change. And so, it's changed!! Tomorrow I should get updated designs. Think Thursday should be able to get some nice photoa.

Hi, My id not bad. My works not completed yet but so far so good. Quite responsive and friendly. PM me if you want his details.

Lighting.com.sg has delivered the lights last Friday. They called up my hubby and told him, "We'll be there at 9.30am. Sharp! Don't be late!" Hubby was amused and when he reached the house at 9.15am, they were already there waiting. Service not bad, quite prompt. We also felt rather paiseh. 1 stupid dining light, we dunno change how many times. Not only that, medium downlight change to small downlight, 2x18 toilet lights change to 2x13, and best of all, the shop people just smile and say no problem. Universal Union also sent stuff on last monday. Everything seemed ok. But they sent 1 wash basin wrong cos when we went to change one of the sinks to a smaller one, the person keyed in for 2. By the way, we also change items many times! Went there 7 times in total and always, service is good. Hubby insisted that sink must change and call up the shop. The sales lady said she would see if delivery guy can collect the sink and when night came, still no call. So hubby said that he would take the sink to the shop to exchange the next day. When the sales lady saw him, he said that she was so happy. She even gave him a discount when he bought an additional tap and also gave him a free wall-mounted toilet brush and holder! But he also said she quite poor thing, so busy until she a bit confused already. Hmm... we still owe them $182! Will upload more photo next week when I can take more photos.

It's been 3 1/2 weeks since reno started and so far I'm happy with the progress. Couple of hiccups here and there but all easily resolved. 1. Mixers installed n wrong toilets - settled, just switched. 2. Missing hot points for wash basins - done, added beautifully. 3. Short of 1 13amp switch - Will do soon. 4. Missing water point for washing area - yes, done too! So far... 1. Toilet floors and walls - yep. 2. Kitchen floor and plaster wall - yep. 3. Piping and electricity - almost yep. 4. Varnish parquet - yep yep, today. 5. Install wc, sinks and mixers - yep 6. Change and install living room window grille - yeppy 7. Aircon trunking and pipings - yep. Trunking nice but patch wall ugly. From aircon company! 8. False ceiling/L Box living, dining, kitchen - 60% yep. 9. Washing area in service balcony, last min add in - yep. 10. Box up aircon trunking in living - yep 11. Kitchen cabinet compartment design - yep, today. 12. Wardrobes compartment design - yep, today too. 13. Conduit n drawstring for opennet in L Box - yep. Done by ID personally. Best of all, free! 14. Choice of paint colour and laminates - yep. 15. Storage heater installed - yep yep yep. And the heater's free! So I am waiting for the following before I can shift my things in... 1. Toilet glass doors and shower screens 2. Install toilet accessories 3. Painting 4. Install lightings and switch plates 5. Chemical washing 6. Change all door knobs and locks 7. Change toilet window panes 8. Box-up pipes in kitchen Then after I move in, will wait for ... 1. Bedroom wardrobes 2. Kitchen cabinets, glass backing and install sink, hob and hood 3. Kitchen top-hung sliding glass door So far so good. I'm in a hurry to move in cos next Sunday we must handover current house to the new owners. Hope that eveything would be smooth. I'm the kpo type of person so every other day I would go down to my new house to take a look at the works. Then if I see anything not right, I would inform ID immediately. To the point that I even felt paiseh sms-ing him. But he's nice. Say that better to tell him early and rectify rather than things finish then tell, cos he would have problems doing them. On Friday, I sent him 4 sms a one go, I think he must have got confused with all my sms-es until he called me up and said, "you there right? wait! don't go! I'm coming now!" Some of the stuff I told him, I must remind him again. Maybe he's quite busy so forget. But ok lah, just tell him again. But but I am still happy, cos reno relatively smooth. Today I went down again to decide on the internal compartments of the wardrobes and cabinets. While the "carpenter" drew the compartments, I saw there were 5 drawers, so I asked, "Hey, got 5 drawers here, your contract say 4 drawers, this one I must pay?" And he immediately shot back, "Wah liao! We not so bad lah! You special!!" I was like but I'm glad he's not the niao type. Maybe cos I'm not that niao also, but then again, I wouldn't know if I'm not niao cos I'm not dealing with myself. Aiyah, I think niao person will also say they not niao, so that means I'm actually niao??!!

Yes, you can. Pay online also can. $170.50 if do online. When you found a buyer, just ask them to reimburse u. That's what I did.

Yesterday, the plumber was there to lay the pipes, and so today I went over to take a look. I was rather disappointed when I saw that they had installed the wrong mixer in the wrong bathroom even though I had already specified for each location. What's missing are also 2 hot points for the wash basins and 1 extra point for the washing area beside the washing machine. I called Kelvin up and he immediately said that he would rectify the problems. I definitely felt happier upon hearing it than earlier when I could not get him. I saw the free storage heater from him. Installws Ariston 30L. Not sure if it's new or old model, but hey, as long as can work and in good condition, why not. Tomorrow the WCs and stuff would be arriving. I tried to call the shop to confirm the timing but I just couldn't get the sales lady. Either she's busy, entertaining customers, on the phone, or not in. I hope that the goods will be in good condition. This coming week, I think many things would be happening. Pipings, electrical, aircon, false ceiling, lights. Not sure if paint would come in too. Anyway, so far so good, only the piping blunder. Hope everything will be fine. Supposed to have ordered curtains and blinds already but haven't found the time to get down to them.
