  1. hi Bro, pardon my ignorance: what is a wall bracket and what is it used for?
  2. I got the same for SGD400. You got a great buy
  3. Those are very good prices, i paid like double of that...
  4. There are quite a few pest control company that quote for free. Why not ask them to come take a look and quote.
  5. Your parquet is reasonable. The homogenous depends on the price of your tiles. If can use those expensive tiles then not that bad.
  6. Hmm do plastering instead? then do not paint over?
  7. 1) if you overlay, your house become lower and smaller 2) if the original tiles are old, it may pop and affect the new ones 3) if the original water proofing not done well, if there are water leakage to your neighbour below, u will need to hack and relay Since you are renovating now, might as well hack and relay. For my unit, spent about 4k more for the hacking
  8. Hi Bro Bepgof, I have read before that flying star is based on directional and movement of QI, however if we assume that QI take the shape of the vessels that fill it. It would make sense to split them into the 9 grid instead of 8 directions. Regarding how the Lo Shu and He Tu comes about, remember reading about the black turtle that has the shape on its back but not sure if that is the only legend regarding the discovery of the He Tu and Lo Shu
  9. Yup, 疑人不用,用人不疑 i will trust him and see how it goes.
  10. Hi Sis Mae, Well he said that my house is average so i should not expect to become rich and famous. He did not say where is the wealth sector but he gave a 1 place where i should not be at and 2 place where i should always be at. One thing that impresses me is that he is able to tell that we did something wrong during the renovation and that is causing problems and obstacles to us at everything we are doing. I will see how things goes for the next few weeks before commenting if the mitigation effort works.
  11. Sis Mae and Sis Ivy My FS master used a bagua technique instead. That is quite a eye opener and seem to be more advanced then the flying star and 8 mansion technique. Do you know what that is call?
  12. Hi wstan77: yup it is a HDB masionette. Your explanation make sense too. As it is build as a block rather then your own piece of land.
  13. i think i got kinda :dunno: confused. haha. i think this makes fs a art rather then a science and also make it interesting to study.
  14. hmm... cheam... Can you explain a little more?
  15. No additional quotes nor additional documents regarding the additional works? Ask them to remove it and bring it back? However to be fair, maybe you want to post your entire invoice with breakdown. 29k for the above few items seem a little high.
  16. Hi Joyousonline, Can you share your contacts for shipping things to SG from taobao as well as the taobao company that sells your light please? Thanks so much Andrew and Teri
  17. Alternatively, you can add track lights in your living room facing the center of the living room. or Position halogen light on the wall for rebound Anyway the color of your wall do affect the brightness as well. It is is white base, i think that it will be bright enough.
  18. Hi Porkypig: Can you share the price you paid for the Blum hinge?
  19. Hacking are never cheap. My hacking cost me about 5k for the whole house. 1) 3 Toilet Wall 2) 3 toilet floor 3) living room floor 4) kitchen wall 5) kitchen floor 6) balcony floor 7) 3 bedroom parquet 8) 4 panel of wall for open concept kitchen Yours will be hacking of 1 living room floor and 1 bedroom (Approx. 400 sqft?) Cement Screed for living room and bedroom floor Lay laminated flooring. You need to check with the contractor the breakdown. Also to check on the brand of the laminate given. There are cheap ones that are SGD3psf up to SGD7psf. You may also consider including the 2bed room as well to standardize the design.
  20. You have lots and lots of cabinet. The prices of cabinet do varies quite a lot. Go and see what type of laminate you can use first. Also request for blum hinge for all the cabinet. I received cheap quotes for cabinet but u need to top up this and that and in the end will be expensive too. Also consider the quality of work as well.
  21. Hi Sis Mae29, You are indeed a FS master. LOL Talking about FS, saw that you using the Luo Pan from Joeyyap. Regarding flying star and the building period: Joey Yap school says that the building period will change if the house is vacant for 100 days. I have bought my unit since Feb this year and have only started reno this month. Will it be considered house period 8 or house period 7?
  22. Jaschar83: Looking forward to your renovation in Pasir Ris. We have also started our renovation in Pasir Ris. We are staying in St 12. What about you?
  23. It would be very different if we used the house period as period 8
