  1. You can go buy PVC sheet from art shop, those with 1 side sticky and comes in different colors or designs... apply some anti-fungal paint, wait for it to dry up then peel off the backing of the PVC sheet to stick over the area, then use a sharp penknife to trim off the extra at all sides. Viola!
  2. ABS is trimming, nothing to do with slamming of door. If you dont know what is what, please refrain from commencing. Insist you ID to write down in detail all the specification of brand of parts, hardware components and wood materials use for the construction of the kitchen cabinet in the contract.
  3. The brand of the SHIOK SHIOK shower head i bought is EconoJet, made in Korea. Just a fraction of the price of a branded shower head.
  4. No ABS trimming, the laminate on the side will start to peel after a number of years; will be very ugly. By that time you will be very regret of the decision to compromise with your ID. And dont be a salty olive to ask for other items as complimentary/compensation. EDITED TO ADD: I am going for high quality expensive quartz for my kitchen counter top so the workmanship of the kitchen cabinet must build according to my specification. I can foresee my kitchen cabinet will be sky high price to build, so if the carpenter from the ID build wrongly, i will get them to hack down and redo. No compromise!
  5. **deleted, see wrongly** Best person to ask is your housing agent on all these questions, please do not forget you are paying him/her commission. He/She must be able to provide you all the answers.
  6. The casing only got 1 type. The common type is the openable type.
  7. I was reading through the RT forum and someone posted got their sofa re-upholster by this lady, she has a blog http://jazzitupbyjann.blogspot.com; not sure how much she will charge for the material and service. Perhaps you can try getting a quote from her.
  8. Recently i bought a shower head at Square 2 at Novena, the company promoting it they have a office at Toa Payoh. The most amazing thing is that it saves 50% of water but the water pressure increase by 100% when comparing to my branded shower head. My wife, my sister in law, even my dogter all enjoy it very much. SHIOK SHIOK!!!
  9. The highest wattage for ring light is 40w, no way to go brighter than 40w. It is about time to change to use Energy saving bulb by changing the bulb holder to E27 screw type, and you can go buy Philips EasyScene Spiral bulb 20W for brightness of 100w. Get your parent to pay for it, if dont pay then dont complaint.
  10. Hi JumpStreet, Love your place! May I have the eBay link you purchased your spade? Thanks in advance. No worry! I managed to find it in eBay.
  11. You can try order directly from http://www.nostraforma.com/en/side-tables-c-116_143_93.html They have very uniquely nice side table, many not available locally.
  12. http://www.nostraforma.com They maybe costly but they are cheaper than buying in Singapore.
  13. Actually if those ceramic tiles are very old, i see no point to replace them as the new ones will appear brighter, cleaner and shinier; then the overall appearance can look uneven and ugly.

  15. The vinyl tile from Evorich is AC5 quality and utilize a locking mechanism, they claimed they can apply silicon when laying for me so it can be 100% waterproof, maybe that is why it command a $6+ psf price tag.
  16. This new cooling measure is for private property, of cos it will not affect hdb resales flat. Why are you talking about?
  17. I am quite sure you are unable to find this antique ceramic tile, you can try remove a piece and go around all the tile shops in Singapore to ask.
  18. Yes you can re-open them to put in more wire BUT if you paint over it, the painting will tear/crack if you force the casing open, can be quite unsightly. If you dont paint it and your wall is not white in color, it will be ugly.
  19. Offer them sponge or cotton wool to be use as ears plug.
  20. Bloated if you soak your door in water; i think your door warp from dry air condition or direct sunlight. This problem can be fixed but i think no wood factory will want to help you. You can try dont switch on the aircon in your bedroom for a few months and wipe the bedroom door using a very damp cloth every day. Hope you understand dehydration and hydration; same applied to wooden door.
  21. When other people fart in front of you, if you cannot walk away, you will try to fan away the smelly fart. Same goes to smelly cupboards and drawers, you open them and air them, with or without fan, be sure to open windows.
  22. In actual fact, if the wood is not treated properly to handle humidity, it can crack under dry air condition or expose to direct sunlight. You can try patch the crack using wood patty (can buy from homefix), then sandpaper it smooth then varnish with selac/lacquer. If the crack is huge gap, wood patty will be obvious, you may wish to paint the door. I know wood because previously i worked for Scanteak.
  23. Ceramic homogeneous tile is very hard; ceramic non-homogeneous is not hard, drop a hammer onto it will crack or chip off easily. Very difficult to find ceramic non homogeneous tile anymore.
  24. You can try touch up using black paint marker and apply a layer of thin lacquer over it.
  25. Since it is a Electrolux fridge, why itchy backside go find tom, dick and harry repairman? Why you cannot engage authorized Electrolux technician?
