  1. I think the sofa can choose 3 seater without L to fit.. thats what i did..
  2. I haven had time to take a pic of my sofa and post for u!.. will try to rem to get it done today.. I actually went to massimmo too.. price wise i think a bit more exp than OM.. but they do have good deals occassionaly, check out their website. but most of their sofa have low backrest, thats why i din get in the end. which OM did u go too? I think the one at joo seng is a bit cheaper.. their outlet, and have quite good discounts.. my sales staff was amy, and i thought she was pretty helpful and thoughtful.. like i went back months later to get other stuff and she rememebered what i bought and suggested what she though matches what I bought previously.
  3. haha.. dont say ur house is small!.. my house is about the same size.. only difference is the storeroom and MBR toilet Do u cook often? My previous home's plastered wall tends to be quite dirty since my mum cooks everyday..
  4. hey... saw ur post.. thanks for popping by my blog haha.. maybe its becoz of all my house problems... that sometimes when im home.. i feel a tad of sadness.. (especially since my wall tiles are still hanging dangerously.. and loads of masking tapes ard the house) so ur house looks exceptionally happy with all the colours!.. hee and i spot patrick on the glass door!.. i love patrick.. coz I think my hubby looks like him (thank god my hubby dont pop by renotalk!)
  5. oh wow... what a lovely.happy home!.. cant wait to see more!
  6. Hi Guys, does anyone have any experience with lawyers for renovation disputes? and have a lawyer to recommend? thanks!
  7. any idea how much it is? I might check this out.. Im still one coffee table short as we haven found anything we really like.. im using my steel bench as a coffeetable for now..
  8. oh.. love the furniture pieces u bought! hubby wanted the boconcept coffeetable and sofa too.. we saw it on an episode of apprentice as well.. ha but it was too much for our budget..
  9. anyone have experience with your granite top being "rough" like.. its not smooth when i run my hand against it. There are parts of it which feels a little chipped on the surface.. rough... i asked my ID.. he said its part of the grain.. but im not too sure.. some parts i even see deep scratches.. but reading the posts above.. shdnt it be quite hard to scratch? thats why we choose granite..
  10. the cost i cant rem.. let me go home and check.. yep... it holds the door.. as tvincent said.. the ball bearing will "lock" the door and hold it there.. yep.. soft closing as well.. there is this plate behind the rectangle box... u can adjust the speed of the door "auto closing" oso can lock more than 90degrees.. just have to adjust the ball bearing... one thing to note.. which i did wrongly... when i was purchasing it.. my thoughts were on whether when i open the door.. will the rectangle box be too bulky and block/hit my shoe cabinet door... i thought i was quite smart to make sure there is enough clearance... but i forgot about my shoe cabinet door opening so.. now when i open my left hand side shoe cabinet door.. it will hit the long arm .. lucky my shoe cabinet door is top/bottom.. bottom one still can use.. top one.. can only open half..
  11. hmm.. i got the door lock person to help me put it up.. but i guess it shd be.. (if u have the right tools) mainly drill a hole.. screw it in tight.. (from what i saw.. coz it took like a couple of mins only for them) the adjusting is pretty easy...
  12. i got mine from contat as well works fine.... not too bulky as well.. Door Lock / Handle (Contat) 3018 Bedok North St 5 #05-21 Eastlink 6442 4904
  13. my contract states "tempered" but if my glass does not have the logo/wordings printed "tempered" on it.. and ID cannot give me proof/confidence that it is tempered glass.. and for me to trust him... do u think its ok to reject all the glassworks? he has not been honest with my over the past 5 months.. charge a lot but give low cost quality stuff... so im kinda worried now..
  14. wow.. never really seen any balcony with grass look.. looks cosy and interesting~ like a garden of your own! on another note.. ur contractor sounds like a total headache too...
  15. by the way.. any idea how long shd we get the warranty for waterproofing? i just did a complete overhaul... and my fren advised me to ensure the contractor provide waterproofing warranty.. I need to speak to him before i give him my final payment... so just wondering if anyone has that in the contract and what are the terms like... e.g. - warranty all restorative works including.. labour.. materials... etc..
  16. hmm.. i dunno if the clock mechanism will work!.. need to find one.. shall check out artfriend and spotlight when my house is more or less rectified.. i hope it works.. will post if i manage to do it... =p the pallet part is a bit of a problem for me.. haha.. me and my hubby both ride bikes... so.... even if i see one~... i cant steal it!
  17. wow... impressed with ur DIY! me and hubby wanted to DIY a couple of things actually.. but coz of all the reno headaches my ID gave us.. we kind of pushed it aside.. now.. reading ur blog... im so motivated again! need some tips from u! these are the 2 things in my mind that I wanna DIY.. 1) Bicycle clock 2) Pallet coffeetable http://papernstitchblog.com/2010/11/16/tut...-a-wood-pallet/ any idea where i can get the clock hands?... and the pallet?
  18. its like zinc plates.. (i think it is zinc).. similar to those old houses with zinc roof...
  19. what supplements are u taking? i use to have ok skin.. but recently coz of the ID and my house.. really stressed out... stress.. + irregular meals (to monitor the reno) + comfort food (chips and coke) is killing my skin..
  20. i got mine from sim win liang http://www.simwinliang.com.sg/includes/offer.pdf took them like 10-20 mins to fix.. really quick.. not bolted to the wall. standalone. Cant comment on long term usage~.. coz i only just got it!.. but we already placed my hubby's diving equipment and army bags.. and heavy duty work stuff.. seems solid for now
  21. i got my ID from browsing interior mags.. TOTAL regret.. i think word of mouth more imp...
  22. I increase my living space into my kitchen too.. for a dining area.. but not a whole lot... rise the floor in that area... Rem my contractor mention something about HDB regulation can only cover up to a certain area... like 1/3 or something.. but i cant rem the specifics.. Do ask ur contractor and see if he got any answers for u! i got 2 pull out wire basket from hoekee.. at $100+ i think.. the pull out system/rail feels quite solid.. but i haven really live in and use it to the extent to give a verdict on how good it is.. u can check it out.. i think its def useful to put my big pots and pans to dry them... looking forward to checking out ur start of ur reno!
  23. ha.. my hubby wanted it.. and i was worried it will be too cold too.. he made some adjustments to cater to me.. actually.. its almost complete.. and it doesnt feel cold.. in fact.. it feels quite cosy.. haha.. dashes of colour sounds great!... we also try to do a bit of that.. so i have a ferrari red door.. some yellow pieces of accessories (clock/stool).. and some vibrant oil paintings all the best!
