dear all, I'm currently looking for a curtain-maker also! Can someone PM me Mr Chew's contact please! thanks!!

hey hey!! heard from fencer you looking for me lolz... fencer thanks for the sms.. paisei I'm actually at HK now on a work trip so got abit of shock when saw your sms lolz.. by the way Banned we got our's from Living Pheno at Balestier.. and yeah your tap seems abit slanted... our's comes out pretty ok and centralized! it seems it's some levelling issue to do with either the tap or the solid surface?

well, it just shows how much a reno newbie you are if you just go by licensed vs unlicensed lol. sorry blog very slow liao... now moving in and trying to settle down... still have some lousy works that we need to do sigh...

whoa nice one kor!!! everything is shaping up good!!

still cleaning house and trying to get by day to day.. will try to get everything in place this weekend then take some photos

i can barely open my eyes!!! help!!!! zzzzzzzzzzz............... moving is tiring.. zzz

me no cool cucumbie... me gonna be chopped into many pieces hehehe.. jia lat... zzzzzzzzzzzzz got alot of random mementos dunno shd keep or not haha..

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhh................................ move in on sunday!!!!!!!!!! STRESSSSSSS

wa don bully him la so jia lat haha... u need blue pills for him if u wan to pressure him haha... but yeah 1 week to get things done is crazy man!!! impressed he could do it lolz

lol i don't think he will take offense la.. lol did you guys manage to talk to him? or decided ID Note already? well.... "black marks are more for like not adhering to HDB rules, like reno timings, quality etc" ID Note burst your HO like don't know by how long so reno timings you can raise issue liao... Quality-wise, you highlighted some tiling issues, which some cannot be rectified because it will be too "troublesome".. I'm sure you can raise a case against them, with other dissatisfied home owners who used ID Note like smallcarrot etc

hehehe wallsticker + 2 deck chairs.. ez!

ur signature about monkeys asking for macadamias is almost apt over here.. junwei jia you man. hang in there and hope everything will be smoother

hmm from your pov that makes sense too lol.. I guess luckily my main con is good at sourcing for good HDB license con seriously, i don't know on what basis HDB grants their licenses, but I think one of the criteria is certainly not trustworthiness given that there are many many MANY errant contractors on their list. I think you should feedback to HDB about ID Note if you feel that they have not fulfiled their duty as contractor

bro i feel for u man, that is extremely ridiculous because now not only they need to redo the SS, I think you wouldn't want an extra hole in ur cabinet right? The extra hole might create a problem of rotting wood etc. henry is totally absolutely at fault. As main con, he is the one who suggested to put the tap at the side, so he SHOULD have the responsibility to inform the SS people? and he or some of his people should be present to make sure such a major installation be laid correctly. it sucks that homeowners are at the mercy of such shoddy contractors.. I think BCA or HDB should have a proper set of guidelines to monitor errant behaviour like that and also to come up with a standard contract that will hold both homeowner and contractor responsible to it.

haha thanks bro.. i'm sure u are in the best possible pair of hands around... now totally caught up with work and moving in so there's very little posting going around here.. apologies to everyone!! will post photos when the furniture is all there~~ brief update: We got our starhub cable and broadband up already! phew... another $70 per month burnt! hmmmmm don't know but I think HDB licensed contractors are the ones who are allowed to hack instead of HDB's 'stamp of approval'.. not sure if my definition is correct?? but u are totally right in one pt: I vouch the quality and service of jaskel.

hey bro everything looks good! don't be sad about the console because i think it looks pretty awesome haha.. like ur study man

yeah loh was totally blur and we took 20 minutes jumping to alot of odd conclusions before finding the bears hanging there lolz.. yay bro so today we will go down today at about 9-ish for handover is that ok? or u have appointments liao?

I used 60x30 wall tiles for my toilet walls but I have no comments leh looks quite ok... for my kitchen wall and floor i use 60x60 for everything and I'm pretty satisfied with the levelling etc.. I understand that the bigger the tiles, the more difficult to level (simple analogy is that a longer line is harder to draw straight). kk bro hope u huat big big and no more hiccups on the way!!

yeah la.. i guess it's good you can take things positively and in ur stride.. hope everything will be smoother from now on... lol not so twin-ish afterall lolz

SIAO my dog smells good... ur dog sux!!! can't help it.. furniture has even more selection than laminates/tiles and yet has to be even more specific because our house has a certain "look" now.. yayyyyyy hopefully mustafuggers don stand our TVs up tmoorrow again... hommage will be delivering my 10.5ft wardrobe (zzzzzz... wifey wanted it -_-"), dining table and chair! saturday will be bed frame and mattress!!! yayyyy still got little things here and there that needs touching up but best contractor awardee is going at his fastest to rectify them~~ yayyy

I will the bloody bugger until his teeth flies out. that is super unprofessional, super ridiculous and super brain dead. i've no idea how ppl can FORM a club for such a lowlife sob. i hope your ordeal will be over soon so that u can start ur happily ever after without this piece of dung on ur door step.

don't worry if u need ur twin bro to help u scold henry i can chip in. ta ma de read ur blog also feel gek for u. hope everything goes smoothly from now on le.. alamak they so "chor lor" one ah.. laminate supplier never take care of their own product like that how to buy them siaz.. sibei jia lat.. HOP push back nvm but hopefully we can sort it all out before big furniture comes in this sat!! i think friday we will be cleaning the place abit to get it ready thanks bro hope can find good good ones! no lah the delivery man not from mustafa, i think they also pek cek mustafa play them out by telling them no stock on delivery day.. knnz. haha now u know kor~ must keep a very tight watch on such kuku things.. at least jason will keep a tight rein on all the renovating stuff, so u can focus more on the furniture electricals etc..

sigh.... stupid mustafa just told me no stock for my TV. looks like today's handover not really handover liao.. have to trouble jason to coord on another day.. stupid mustafa. hur hur we will try to make sure everything sui sui before we move in so don't need to rectify while living there

woohooo!! don't worry i think you got a good deal.. buy everything from gain city or best denki, and don't buy a single thing from courts because their prices sucK!!!!!! yayyyyy our journey has ended and your's just started so shall come hound your tblog can't wait to see ur transformation!!!! nice wall tiles you picked hehehe.. but like jason said... i think price = jawdrop
