wow u are very detailed we just let the electrician decide and probably have to live with their decisions forever!

another interesting pcs of fixture/wall at the far end of the living room, they had to stop the work in the evening becos power drill gave up, which is probably a blessing in disguise, cos we were afraid that the late drillings will attract complains study room table (work in progress) kerb for the glass partition (hacked wall) for study room

TV feature wall installed : shoe cabinet/storage near main door , mirror doors will be installed tomorrow MBR and toilet - glass wall and doors, sink, tap and accessories will be fixed tomorrow

finally have to chance to see the night version of the house and the lighting effect here is the track LED light we purchased for our corridor, love it a lot! and its rather bright too! this was what it looked previously kid's room looking lovely at night with the soft glow from LED lights as well (from IKEA) Living room, the effect is stunning at night!

unfortunately, the house wasn't in the handover stage as at the end of the day but we have seen the most progress within a single day actually according to the schedule which our ID provided, tomorrow is then the actual handover... praying for a miracle.. meanwhile, I will just share some picts first

1 more day left to work for tomorrow before handover i dunno if they are going to pull it through tomorrow, the workers were still working when I left i would estimate about 65% done?? most of the carpentry are here, waiting to be fixed up the glassware and mirrors will come in tomorrow really keeping fingers X!! here are some picts for today: laminate flooring for MBR almost complete, worker was working on the skirtings work in progress for vanity top in MBR toilet common toilet (halfway) Kid's room platform/laminate

thanks glad you liked it

i grew up in queenstown, queens close to be exact, my parents are still staying there, therefore i am pretty familar with the place and glad to be back again my unit is aligh N-S, windows are facing south

came in just nice after work to see the electrician working on the living room ceiing lights

today the plumber came today to install the rainshowers for our 2 toilets today... MBR toilet bowl also fixed up.. but sink and taps have to wait till the carpentry on the vanity top are done.. should later today electrician was here also to do his job, but given so many areas and switches to work on, I think it will take another day at least, now we have only 2 days left to handover... its like a race against time!! the house is starting to look cramped again with some of the carpentry delivered to my place for installation MBR Common we kept this built in wardrobe from the prev owner, lets see how they are gonna revamp it... angle from the inner corner of the MBR

love the grain pattern on the dining table ur reno looks rather large scale, how long will it take?

I used to keep whatever u have in there

it was really tough work, we had only a small area to work with, cos all ard us were debris, had to becareful not to throw or dump things around us cos it will cause another dust storm and make our effort useless... due to the constraint and controlled movements, our bodies were aching at the end of the day. anyway, i guess we did the right preparation, cos when move it, will just slowly remove all the newspaper layers/protection no need to clean anything else cos all pre-cleaned!

welcome to RT! do you stay near the stadium? cos one of the picts with window scenary looked familiar.

we were fortunate that the prev owner left a metal cabinet for us in the storeroom! yes, those full height use in office one! as well as those 4 tier rack, saved us $ from customising one! actually the metal cabinet was a life saver, before the hacking and drilling, we actually shifted quite a no. of things (from our old storerm) into that storeroom, most of it we kept and locked in the cabinet... during the reno, the workers were quite careless, sometimes the left the storeroom door open cos they had to access the power source inside for their drills and cutters, end up storeroom also kenna dust, lucky the stuff inside the cabinet were unaffected. we spent last sunday cleaning up the storeroom and putting newspaper and trashbag to prevent the rest of the exposed items from dust.

but flooring wise quite easy to remove for tiles i would be concern if the specks are on elsewhere besides the tiles thats why we are kinda relieved when ID told us that painting will go up first, following by carpentry and flooring(i think). of cos there will be one round of touching up painting for flaws/imperfection at the end but i think the careless specks/dripping will be minimal lah

i am not a technical person, but can always try? unless placing it near those things will induce damage in the long run,..

i believe it is becos the heavy/messy works (ie. hacking, wet works) all done?? Actually the painter did put plastic sheets on the floor when he was painting...

i just hope the smell won't be too overwhelming... intend to start cleaning and do some light unpacking on fri nite.. actually we shifted quite a number of things into the storeroom already... quite kiasu!!

carpentry placed temporarily in the study room i think this should be my TV feature wall???

a look at the platform in the MBR

only 1 lone painter painting the house when i was there at 5, whats left in the living room now is the laminates and 1x toilet bowl to be fixed...

surprise, surprise! the place that looked like a warzone during lunch was totally transformed at 5pm when i dropped by all the debris gone!!! haven't seen the house so neat for a while now can't believe that they actually shifted out all the junk in 3-4 hrs!! now the handover this wkend is slowly becoming a reality!

not expensive??? can buy 1 for me also?

went down did a spot check during lunch some of the carpentry are in the workers are also starting to clear up the place was told that all the trash will be out by today.. hmmmmmmm.... anyway , i was simply captivated by the view just now, because the sea was so deep blue and beautiful, have never seen anything like that earlier.. anyway, i will be dropping by after work today to check the progress again..
