  1. one thing to note - such partial payments are not BOUND by the law. it's just a agreement between 2 parties. you neg what/how you wan to pay, money is yours.
  2. my contractor said need to get those timer with higher ampere rating. the boss of www.esaver.com.sg said their timer can be used for storage heater. he ask me to take a look at his storageheater which is wired to their timer. so i donno who is right or wrong - i get my misc electricial stuffs from kelantan road. Hong Kwang. as for downlights i got them from Thomson Lightings - one branch in balestier plaza and the other in IMM.
  3. go visit car showroom you no sleepy liao
  4. some from sungei road and some from thomson lightings. halogen lamp(full stainless steel) $20 from sungei road - elsewhere $60-$90 Glass round ceiling lamp - $30 from sungei road - elsewhere $60-$120 I bought from those pretty decor-lighting shops' supplier in sungei road.
  5. if anyone of you do notice - those posts that got lots of complains and horror stories. guess where they got their contractor/ID from?
  6. Yes, we are doing that...everything mckenic except for wood.
  7. i got to chase after my contractor for paying him. companies who have NO faith in their works tends to want "MONEY UPFRONT". money first, you can complain all you want later.
  8. china(philips+osram) and indonesia(osram) you mean your bulb blown? too early to tell whose fault is it - the ballast or the bulb. if your bulb keeps getting blown every few weeks - then good news, your ballast got a problem.
  9. it depends on what you want - want pretty then let go of your money. or - need something to light up the house at night (the neccessities) me spent less than $1200 for whole EM.
  10. go to myhdbpage in www.hdb.gov.sg logon and write a email to your technical officer in charge - best if you can get a good camera and take a good shot of the tile and post the link to the pic in your email. this way - the email routes to the HQ, then to branch management, then to your TO. And they have to OPEN a case for it. Mind you - we are not paying $1 dollar or $2 dollars for this pigeon house, we are paying hundreds of thousands for it!!!!!!!
  11. discussed many times b4 - this is just snake oil
  12. go buy ST, especially saturdays - always got one or two contractors who change/revarnish cabinet doors.
  13. think he got too many aunties/ah sohs customers - who boil soup for 10 hours. yes it will crack - including those nice nice glass hobs. you can always look for another contractor who can just sell/fix the glass panel.
  14. think $300 is quite ok - considering the fact that the contractor FIX it for you.
  15. as for loansharks - what those scums do is to BORROW from as much loanshark as they can just before handing over the flat officially. this is the LOOPhole the dumb gov didnt see when revising the rules of changing address of IC.
  16. hdb are usually slow in reacting to the private property prices.
  17. your friendly neighbourhood garbage centre's bangladesh can do it for $60.
  18. plus the HOME sweeeeeet HOME to dust and lizards.

  20. end up my contractor got them(sub con) instead. good job.
  21. you need to saw HOLEs and then connect the wires.
  22. My ID quoted me $65 for the supply and installation of each light? got include the wiring? or the wiring is already there>? you can get nice nice downlights for $20+, most cost around $15-$25. market rate to fix/install 1x of light = $8
