  1. Hello neighbor ;)

    My reno in the same estate is just about done and I should be moving in this weekend after some cleaning. Don't tell me it's my flat you saw and the ID firm you chose? Lol

    I was gonna put up a post after it's complete

    Oh neighbor lol! Hmm i think ID diff?! Hmmm are you from the blk 2 with the white windows? Btw i use 9 Lives to do my place :D


  2. 15th Nov 2011 : Day 1

    Hacking of cabinets and stove/sink supports.

    Decide to pop by about 130pm to see the process which started in the late morning.

    Worker went for lunch so I waited at neighbour's house.... the indian worker only return at 330pm!?!?!?

    Glad to see the floor was laid with protection material, hall cabinets are already hacked off and the worker is starting on the kitchen cabinets.

    1hr after I left, I received a call from the reno uncle, telling me the kitchen wall tiles are hollow.

    Seem like they crack/fall off when the worker is hacking off the supports..:jawdrop:

    No choice.. I ask them remove... now headache.. should i live with an tile-less wall or re-tile up half height.

    Not doing any carpentry in kitchen as I intend to get the base cabinets from Ikea.

    Guess better make a trip down tmr to take a look first and decide.

    Forgot to take pics when i was there :bangwall:

    My kitchen has no tiles also. Personally i prefer no tiles i jut put backsplash in the hob area.


  3. i saw them at a shop along aljunied road towards payalebar MRT, on the right side selling alot of electrical stuffs and trunkings, did enquire on the cost but not cant recall now.

    there are 2 other popular shops you could try to get those kinda switches

    T&J Electric

    and maybe choo chiang too as alot of forumers patronises both places to buy their switches and rates are quite reasonable.

    do give them a call before going down to chk on stk avail

    goodluck with ya reno!

    Alrighty! thanks MeRfMeRf for this!


  4. welcome to RT, your progress is looking good! btw our toilets tile scheme ish pretty much the same.

    btw since you are going for the industrial look and your trunking/conduits would be exposed, would you be using this type of steel box switches too?

  8. Here's the preliminary interior design

    I was planning to extend the wall of the toilet to make it a "WHOLE" room. Though it was not approve by HDB. We revert back to old configuration which is sink outside and WC and shower inside plus we will put divider wall around 3.5 ft right next to the sink.
