Thanks for liking my cheapo rainshower, cost only $99 without the mixer. My friend that helps me with my reno dont undertake hdb flat project, they only do government tenders, landed and condo projects in large scale. Their firm is not ID or contractor but architectural designer and builder; not wise to engage them unless you have lot of $ to burn. They will undertake hdb flat for people they know (personal friends... etc). I bought my current flat from an Indian man that rented the whole house to foreign workers for their living quarter, the condition of the house when i took over was in REAL bad condition, the squat toilet bowl looks like it has never been wash for a decade or more. Basically i hacked the whole house... floor, wall, ceiling, rotting furniture, bed bugs infested cabinets, all doors and windows, re-run electrical from DB, all new copper piping for water and repair the rotting incoming main water pipe. Reno in the house - $26,000 Carpentry - $20,000

I rather buy at lower cov, condition of flat nevermind, the 3i i bought was rented out to foreign workers as their living quarter, the living condition can vomit... now it look like condo.

Buy within your mean lah.

In that case you can vaccum the salt and rice when you doing the general cleaning, no need to throw coins if you intend to live awhile before reno. Redo the throw salt, rice and coins ritual when you going to reno, ask your contractor to pray for smooth reno.

Last time in army, road march passed cementary, hungry also pray and take the fruits and eat, sometime lucky can get grapes and banana.

Ooops... pardon me for being sua ku. Ikea is cheaper if you don't include any of their soft closing hinges, drawers, lift-up systems and 100% acrylic counter top.

Conceal piping at shower area is really neat!

No need to vaccum them; they will be gone when your reno is completed (you know after the general cleaning).

No worries, when you are back we set a Sunday to meet up with you and Gary aka Getzski at a wet market to buy all the ingredients for a good lunch. 1. Lo Han Zai with assorted fresh mushrooms 2. Bak Kut Teh 3. Steam salt water fish in teochew style

The protruding short wall is for conceal mixer piping?

No problem, when she is back we set a Sunday to meet up at a wet market to buy all the ingredients for a good lunch (got Lo Han Zai with assorted fresh mushrooms, got Bak Kut Teh and maybe a steam salt water fish in teochew style).

If really want this Sunday, after cook i got to rush off, no time to feast.

Since he can steam himself, then no need me lor... The Bak Kut Teh feast can postpone next Sunday cos this weekend too many activities.

Steamed boneless cod fish steak in Teochew style, ai mai? The only catch is cod fish steak is expensive.

haha... i doubt Getzski and NeoBY both have big wok or steamer at home to steam salt-water fish in either Teochew or HongKong style.

This is branches, the main one in bedok. Their steamed fish is one of the good side dishes ordered.

If battle shows us his reno photo, at least if we spot any fault, can tell him so he can ask his ID to rectify mah.

Where your ID brought you to buy tile? Fyi, I bought all my tiles from White Horse, every piece also flat.

A decent reno for a 3room hdb flat is somewhere between $30k to $40K but if you want good workmanship, good materials and good design, can reach $70K easily. Furnishing is another $12K to $20K, again depend on what you want.

Ehhh... are you 2 serious about Bak Kut Teh feast this Sunday?

They have a branch at 467 Changi Road too. Love ordering side dishes to go with mee sua.

Then you must make sure they throw away all the removable bulky items when they move out.
