  1. met up with her today. i'd say she is a nice person coz she agreed to hack and relay my floorings but the reason is bcoz the tiles are faded until dun know like what liao then the skirting also cmi so my TO said she will contact the contractor to hack and relay she will ask the contractor to leave the sample tiles at my unit so that i can go down and view it at my leisure she's very nice hor bought my sink today after lunch didn't get my dream sink coz it's really TOO expensive bought this instead http://www.hoekee.com/images/blanco/metra9.jpg can be undermount so the drainer is not a necessity cost only $399, 1/8 of my dream sinks price
  2. actually it depends on how bad are the scratches if it's barely visible, only can feel when you run your hands along the surface then i think it's acceptable. but if when you look at the grilles all you can see are the scratches, then you should demand that they change it or at least do something about it
  3. weird loh, and how many time must i tell her to call me miss, not mrs maybe she dun know how to pronounce your hubby's surname okay okay will try that on her tomorrow but want to make her relay the tiles coz dun want to spend extra money my reno budget already bust until dun know go where liao likely will spend double of what i have budgeted
  4. she is a very 'funny' person always call and ask for mrs xxx so i always reply 'miss' then she'll ask for mrs xxx again then i reply 'miss' then she'll just go on and say whatever she called to say three times already still like this... you didn't meet her at all? so no joint-inspection done? dun know whether she'll think i'm difficult coz i asked for the joint-inspection. must start to come up with reasons to make her agree with changing the flr tiles help me think of something please
  5. yah, but i dun mind them not changing if they really can remove the stains. as long as they are clean can liao. i'm more concerned with the floor tiles coz whether i have balcony doors or not hinges on it is she a difficult person? me not very good at negotiating leh wait she say everything not defect refuse to change how?
  6. dun think it's so easy to clean off the stains on my WCs didn't post the pix coz it's really disgusting if they are replacing the tiles then i will remove the balcony doors loh, coz will be doing a divider to prevent pple from seeing straight through my living room. then also doing grilles and windows at the balcony so thinking not much wind left if the wind come through the front door, block by so many things... meeting Ng on wed late morning to do joint-inspection of my flat see if she can accept my grouses and agree to my demands
  7. if it's like 5ft from the main door okay or not thinking of building a divider and use the bottom half as shoe cabinet also, anyone know if the 5 rack refers to 5 shelves or 5 racks including the bottom...
  8. the e****k actually does have a showroom somewhere that does selling too. it's just not so well known. hmmm, think i'll stick with my fanco then and switch to fanco for my dining fan too
  9. oh dear, did you purchase from their showroom or from those fan shops? thinking of getting this brand for my dining room leh. how? you called the shop you bought from or the fan company's office? if like that then i better consider other brands thanks for the heads up
  10. like the lavender mist and cool lime very nice colours both you and melody have good taste
  11. hi, any idea how much does she charge for each 3D drawing? thanks
  12. think a trip down to IMM should not be avoided... stiff competition so everybody giving free installation, unlimited copper piping, class 1 insulation etc. some even give class 0
  13. think depends on how many coats you are looking at and at what price you can get the paint... $1400 is expensive for 5-rm, barang barang is offering $1350 for EA but for a limited period only...
  14. sigh... so tempted to get some illegal workers and hack the HHS it's really restricting the space of my kitchen. so envy pple with the HHS elsewhere can do open concept kitchen or hack the whole place now no choice lah, galley style so be it hopefully it'll not be so bad afterall... will be taking india granite for my cabinet top though, make it up for my losing the L-shaped kitchen
  15. thought drainage should be copper, also do they provide unlimited piping? the extended warranty is for compressor unit only or including fancoil? coz compressor unit standard 5yrs, it's not extended...
  16. got one forummer say that they list the WCs as a defect coz the masking tape mark cannot be remove so the TO changed the WC for them. so i'm going to use the same thing and ask Ng to change for me. hopefully can lah the tiles faded until dunno like what liao if they hack for me then will ask them to remove the balcony sliding door coz doing windows for the balcony anyway. met up with patrick today, very happy with him coz although the amount i plan to spend is very little, but he gave a lot of opinion and practical suggestions. if his final quote is within my budget, most prob will go with him liao. but he make it very clear that if i want an L-shaped kitchen got to sacrifice my breakfast table. so in the end most prob i will end up with a galley style kitchen !!
  17. i think it's bcoz your unit was selected as the vacant showroom so they did some touch up to it. or maybe your unit was selected bcoz it's in the 'best' condition amongst the remaining units !! tonight didn't strike lottery too, so sad !! does that mean i should not buy my dream sink? now looking all around for lobang to buy that sink at a lower price anyone got lobang for blanco sinks? i will make a lot of noise until she changes all the tv points and the tiles and the WCs
  18. some pix of my defects corroded scv point green door lock skirting? or the lack of
  19. if tomorrow i strike then you'll see me outside Hoe Kee on monday morning waiting for them to open
  20. wow your reno bill is getting higher and higher by the day if me dun know go where and find the money tomorrow me meeting patrick also think he will take some measurements then give me a final quote so sad didn't strike lottery today hopefully tomorrow my dream will come true if not then got to settle for a cheaper sink liao wonder what is my final bill for renovation...
  21. thank you thank you hope your words will come true realise that if you have a lot of money, there are so many things can buy just saw in the newspaper something that will make a perfect divider it's a double-sided embroidery screen (in rosewood i think) one side is one picture and the other side is another picture so so so tempting, but no need to ask also know will cost a bomb the sink is big coz half of it is a work top, so no need to build a separate worktop in a way, save some money buying a solid top or corian top... but $2k is really then now thinking of building a small wardrobe in the MBR for my mum then i will kappo her wardrobe.
  22. actually chemical wash does not necessary mean acid wash have approach a company who does chemical wash using non-acid based chemical suppose to be better for the fixtures and tiles
  23. it'll take up quite a bit of space but 4ft for the shorter side of the L is still acceptable to me but most prob not getting it coz the price is really... good to hear that the tiles are still available can to share a pix of your divider? coz thinking of doing something like that but really dun know should do what choices now are bamboo curtain hanging 0.5m from the ceiling, wooden divider (ping feng), custom divider or just a display cabinet didn't know got so many things to consider until now...
  24. ahhh please let me striket lottery this weekend then i got money to buy the sink if not then every weekend you'll see me loitering at Hoe Kee, drooling over the sink
  25. now thinking of ways and means to squeeze money for it wonder if there are cheaper alternatives... just love it for the size - 1.2m by 62cm really really just nice for my L-shaped kitchen think have more or less settled on ho bee coz their price is quite reasonable (though can be cheaper) and many forummers here seem to think highly of him
