  1. This week nothing much. waiting for the arrival of all the appliances (washing machines, oven, dishwasher etc) and putting up of the swing! *cross fingers* Plus busy getting some quotations from some movers company. will write a review on them after I shift.=) Btw anyone has any good movers, curtains contact can share?=)
  2. Hey Ks, Yess. U r absolutely right! after much discussing, we are going to drill thru the beam and secure the hook to the beam using bolt and nut. =) This will be very secure.. that's what everyone been assuring.. *cross fingers* The carabiner is to hook the chain of the chain together to prevent it from moving too much on the hook. =) It is small but tried on the chain and it went thru. =) hehe thanks alot for your help. Next week will get the swing up. Will update once it's done up.
  3. Hey Ks, this is what I got for the hook. Yes yes. we are also contemplating of welding the hook directly to the beam if the drilling doesnt work. We consulted a few people, 90% claimed the drilling is enough to hold. so I got all these... Will see which work out! Hope these will work out. cross fingers..
  4. wow!!! amazing layout!! It's huge! think I saw this while i was hunting for EM. Ard Sin Ming area right? upstairs no room? The last one I saw was the living hall was upstairs with one room but no toilet and the ceiling height was extremely high for the 2nd floor. Is it something similiar? =) looking forward to see what you are going to do with it!! =) When is the first appointment?
  5. hey ricepapergirl, not really ok.. =( opposite the WC is the mini sink and tap. the door is not able to go all the way up due to the pipe.. all in all.. super cramp..really regret +++. shld have expanded out more the toilet.. now just have to live with it. haha.. yeah the pipe is nice.. but kind of weird coz the color change when it got connected to the WC.
  6. Hey Ks, what do u mean by "n" steel bar? I managed to get the hooks you mentioned and we did explore a few possibilities. #1 drill a hole thru the metal beam and use expansion bolts x 2 and the fan hooks to secure. #2 to wield a metal steel bar and wield both the "fan hooks" onto the steel bar to support the swing. (though it's not very heavy but just in case) After much discussion and some friends are quite concern so we decided to go with option 2. it's quite costly to do so but for the safety.. we have to go ahead. hope this will work out. *cross fingers* thanks alot for your advise.
  7. Still trying to resolve my Swing Issue. Spoken to the boss who did the balcony for me with the steel bar, he mentioned I need to get a heavier duty fan hook (see pic below) courtesy from Ks Toh. Anyone can advise where I can get the hook?

  14. Hey ricepapergirl, yeah. He is the type who will make initiative and take the first step to solve most problems.. However for my house there are too many things and some he had never encountered before.. nevertheless, he did not reject when i asked him for help.. he will still try and find out how to solve the issue. This is something admirable but hor.. i find him super naggy sometimes..
  15. So far the house is progressing well, we met with issues along the way and we try to solve it as it comes. Having this ID really helps alot. HE is one who will help us resolve issues and try his best to solve it well, there are times he is clueless too but he will still give advise if possible and also find out how to solve it. This is something I really like about him. Not many ID i spoke to has this kind of attitude! Kudos to him!
  16. hey ricepapergirl! great to hear from u!! hehe. yeah super bad experience from them. vomit blood ++ We are still waiting for the balcony boss to go down and have a look and see what he can advise. *cross fingers* but thanks for the suggestions!! i think last resort will be what u suggested get a bar up and hang from there.. =( last few items before cleaning up and handing over! hehe
