  7. can someone PM me Alex's contact? Thanks alot.
  8. if u ship thru borderlinx, total for 1 piece should be around $95. 20 bucks more.
  9. mine is a resale flat. i think cos hdb changed the drainage location when they did the MUP 10 years ago. hdb contacted my contractor and said will get their subcon to do a inspection to check if the drainage location is indeed changed before. if yes, they will need to hack the old opening and patch it up once my hacking is done. if the inspection is not carried out and resolved, i cannot hack around the drainage area. luckily only 1 hole needs to be hacked. if more than that i dunno how to explain to my neighbour.
  10. hacking starts today. morning met up with the hdb subcon to do the sanitary inspection. in the end he had to hack a hole from our kitchen thru to our neighbour's kitchen ceiling which they will patch up within the next few days. that was supposed to be the old drainage hole. feel so bad about it. luckily neighbour was very nice and understanding.
  11. need some advise, what's a reasonable price for replacing main door frame and solid main door(non fire-rated)? realised the main door frame and main door in worse condition than i imagined. thanks alot.

  14. a. mine is box up 1 door ventilation opening with partition for $60 but since i am installation new door frame, my contractor will be using hollow block to seal it up at the same price. b. not sure but think abit ex cos hack a little bit only right? c. mine for hacking 1 door and door frame is about $80 and a new door frame is $180.
  15. yah lor.. sofa and console must be shorter also o/w become obstacle course.

  18. many things happened. Contractor submitted permit, 3 weeks later and still pending. 2 days ago, contractor found out he made a mistake and left out the application for hacking a new door opening, made new application. emailed hdb technical officer to expedite our application. 2 days later which is today, permit approved. but with a glitch, hdb requested to do a sanitary inspection of the unit below mine, not too sure what's the problem. so not allowed to hack flooring 1m radius from sewage pipes and drainage till the inspection is done next week. tiles selected, kitchen cabinet layout confirmed, laminates chosen. bought a lot of electronic appliances and furniture. ex-owner finally moved out after nearly 1 1/2 months after completion. agent going to pass me the keys later. will be popping by later to check and lock up the unit. reno going to start next monday!! my time has come. living room false ceiling/l-box still undecided. haha.....
