Hi minchul I had pm u

Hi fellow Arcadian.. Which blk are u at? What happen to ur Reno? Sorry hijack palamo's thread to chat with neighbor

If u pay the cost of another pot of paint? Can ask ur contractor to help u repaint base on goodwill? The pipe color too obvious the attention will be drawn to it rather than the tiles.

Hi Nemo Thanks for reading my blog! I had already pm u my contractor contact. Wish u good luck too...

That's just ikea!!! Haha I'm sure u will buy lots of it too.. Super matching into our kind of theme...

Babe, I has pm-ed u on both the stools.. Seems like we share quite similar taste^^

Hi yokechye I had pm u on my contractor's contact. As for the service is not bad cos my office is pretty near furniture mall so I went up a couple of time to see the colors after I place the order and deposit, they also ok to entertain me. Their delivery service also good, no rescheduling, prompt and on time. So far I got no complain abt them..

Some more addition of small items in our living room, can be move out to our small balcony as well, its quite nice to sit and read a book on our balcony and feel the vitamin D soaking up the skin New appliance for the kitchen counter CBTL Coffee Machine Can't wait to move in to slowly enjoy the comfort of this new home

Now I want to introduce my 2 little baby... I dunno why when I place them in my home they just seems so dear to me like 2 cute little baby and we actually carry them back ourselves. So happy to see them in my home and at the moment they will be acting as our dining chairs until we officially find the right ones Are they adorable? :sport-smiley-004:

Luckily I did not do any recommendation for my timber blind, just up for not long and defects had been found they informed that they will need to come dismantle it and bring it back for repair. Though I'm glad that they are still responsible about this but this is causing me inconvenience, and their follow up service is really poor, I need to call them again and again to confirm when do they want to come...

Hi chrisjaren Thanks for liking my place I had pm-ed you

Actually K also never explain so much to me and he just use easi plaster for me cos he feel it is better. Only after my Reno started then I'm starting to think is easi plaster the brand of the cement powder? cos I see the big big word easi plaster infront of the bag. K only told me easi plaster is better quality than those cement powder that those coffee shop floor use =.= and easi plaster color is lighter and also more expensive. So all my cement screed smooth or rough is done by easi plaster powder. As for sealant :- for my case only rough surface I do sealant and it feels good after the sealant apply, much cleaner and more complete look but the process of application is super horrible. When apply the sealant is like burning my wall and the wall becomes patchy black and as it drys it slowly turn back normal and finished with a tint of gloss on the wall and u can tell a protection layer had been applied. As for my smooth cement, K tested the sealant on the underside of the bench first and the burning too happened but never subsided!!!! So.. He didn't continued and ask me to decide. So I opt without sealant since smooth surface no sealant also should look better.. More raw.. Ya.. He really very fast hor.. And his memory even better than me.. He can remember the details of my home better than me le haha.. Everytime I ask him qn with some wrong info he will scold me for confusing him hahaha... Electrical planning very important oh.. I also didn't plan.. Then he plan for me and went ahead but in the end I felt I want more socket else where and some 2-way light switch then he got to call his electrician to come a few more times opps...

I had asked Defelio before and he informed his shoes cabinet laminate is from EDL, not sure did he mentioned the name maybe u can search the earlier post. That time I thought the laminate comes with the black line but then actually they are groove created specially so must be not cheap ^^ Good luck...

Hi^^ Thanks for dropping by again.. For my case won't have this problem cos my haiku fan had a drop down of 25cm so it is below the cove light. And I think the haiku fan is almost same height as my downlight so both cove light and downlight no problem for me.. Maybe my contractor calculated for me?? Or I'm pure lucky.. I was super worried also beforehand but my contractor keep telling me no problem no problem Maybe u check the fan u buying if the stem height can be adjusted? If can then u can try to do it the same height as ur L-box then I think no issue cos cove light shine up and down light shine down... And of cos most important u must have enough clearance of at least IMO 50cm between fan and light. What do u think?

I see.. Ur easi plaster will be smooth or rough finishes? My tv console is smooth while kitchen is rough.. No the PVC won't be exposed unless the cement got scrap off like I mentioned after sometime or knock into it. But can touch up one.. So far how's ur progress?

Thanks!! I had pm-ed you !!

Hi chergaby Yes I opt for the White plastic edge straightening holder, K told me metal one will easily rust and staying punggol area I won't want to take the risk. I do not have photos to show u now but basically this edge straighener will ensure u have a nice 90 degree straight edge. But the only concern if u r doing smooth cement screed like my tv console, the cement screed is more weak and if u knock into it or after time the cement will come off abit and some of the white plastic will be expose especially the most sharp tip.. However u can also touch up urself by applying abit cement over it. If u doing rough cement wall like my kitchen wall then I believe no such issues cos still can apply protection coat.

Hi Piknik you also wanna use honeycomb tiles? I bought mine from hup kiong at balestier beside hafary as for the black square mosaic, my contractor order from his usual supplier in defu lane but they can be easy found, even hup kiong carry them just we are not ok with the price I never see black honeycomb before, but i did see mixed black and white. now dunno they have any new arrival or not.

Hi caprichoo My WIW do not have fancy designs inside, I did not ask for those pant rack or towel rack cos I feel those cannot put many things only for nice. If u want towel racks if I'm not wrong they call it pigeon holes right? That one sure contractor can do cos it's just normal racks just u want it square or rectangle. As for pants rack etc I'm not sure need to ask them, but if u buy and ask them to install then sure can la but u must buy early so that the carpenter can cater the wardrobe size according to ur racks.. As for working experience with my contractor I had also reviewed before maybe u missed that post. I would say I'm very happy and satisfied though we do have conflict of ideas some times and when that happened I post on renotalk to ask for advice and he will then accept my final decision. And most importantly he is responsive and responsible and he will keep u updated with photos and phonecalls. And even now if I tell him my lightbulb not lighting up he will also dropby to help me take a look as he is in the area (at paloma's house I guess) Even he say if during housewarming someone break or spoil any area he will come back to touch up for me.. So far I really so not have any major complaint.. Price I feel is quite reasonable for all these services even drive me to the laminate factory in sungei kadut to see laminate and furniture hunting. Plus daily visiting to my house to check progress and update without me needing to take leave all the time. I had seen some friends/neighbor spending more than me by engaging ID but still need to supervise themselves and their ID only visit once a week. As for quality I'm also quite happy.. So far the carpentry only came back once to touch up the silicon and one small pc laminate and nothing require any rectification again and again. And I also never encounter any mistake in carpentry where they need to bring back to redo.. So... I'm a happy customer !!

Hi Icequeen I had pm-ed u too

Hi caprichoo Thanks for visiting my blog and liking my home. Welcome to Tblog and congratulation on getting ur keys soon. U must be so excited !! I had pm-ed u the contacts and the cost of the WIW and just to share more it's bases on 19ft and without doors. I'll try to take more picture the next time I go up but it's quite tough as the space is limited and the angle is not wide enough. Is there any particular part u want to see? Inside the WIW or outside? If inside any particular area like the L shape or which side so I try not to miss out. Plus now some clothings is in so maybe a little messy already haha...

Hi pinkturtle, I like ur name !! We r both pink sea creature haha I got my haiku fan from universal union think at around $650 for black (if I remb correctly) but that is before the price increase. Now I think the white one already cost around $680 and black probably $780? Will pm u for my contractor contact

Ya that time I choose to hack half wall for the kitchen to avoid impacting the floor but now seeing ur work.. I feel it's nice to do something to the floor too.. But urs is nice becos ur kitchen flooring is white too so super nice to have the black mosaic as contrast.. Mine is ugly brown kitchen flooring yucks...
