sounds great ... dunno how much my contractor will charge for the change ... better pay then be sorry later ... tks !

Yep, that's what my reno contractor just told me ... but can I assume the curtain contractor knows how to look for the support strips (mine are metal instead of wood, as told by my reno contractor) under the false wall .... ?

siao liao ... (mace - tks) any others got experience to share?

siao liao ... liddat how? no curtains? would these help? Molly Bolt & Toggle Bolt http://www.factsfacts.com/MyHomeRepair/drywallfasteners.htm

My living room under reno has false ceiling, and the "wall" above the windows is also false wall using gypsum board. I want to install curtains. Just wondering can the gypsum board wall hold the weight of the tracks + curtain ?

You are right on target! If you go to one of the links above, there's a photo of a kid holding up a huge piece of the synthetic tiles ... shows how light it is ... wanted to do a feature wall cum cabinet with that ... too bad cant find in sg ... I doubt it is a ruling/regulation thingy ... juz that no much people would need such products ... Well, tks again for the reply!

Tks, but nope, those are heavy brick tiles ... nvm .... decided to do sth else ...

Just went there ... not the stuff I'm looking for ... Those are the real "heavy" stuff ... similar to these Me looking for the realistic looking plastic version ... anyone can help ?

REALLY??? !! Zion Road I suppose? must go down and take a look ... Hope it is the stuff I am looking for ....

hmmm ... time to schedule a visit to SBH @Toh Guan ? didn't find anything at their small branch @ Balestier ...

if exhausted all other options, shipping may be the last option lor ... now trying to see if can get those faux painting ...

Anybody? many such product on the web, but couldn't find any local dealers ... another one: http://www.nextstone.com

Tks, oonik. Looking for plastic versions cos plan to have brick/stone like design for feature wall which double as built in cabinets. With the actual stones, the cabinet doors a bit heavy lah ... Another option is to have faux painting ... any contractor that does faux painting?

Anybody knows whether anyone selling something like this in sg? http://www.advancedrock.net/ Not the usual brick/stone tiles, but this is polyurethane aka plastic ...
