    hi reaagen,

    to answer your question, i need to know how u define expensive, or rather, how ur id define it.  if he quote $10 psf, its definitely expensive lol.... so best is to know the psf costing first. by reading your post, i assume yours is an old resale flat? how does ur id check for hollow tiles?

    2ndly, cement screeding also depends on the degree of hacking.. if they hack until really koyak, then cement screeding is a must. cos it is to smoothen the wall before plaster can be apply. plaster can't really be applied onto rough surface.

    The autocad drawing is the 'dry laying' process. This is important only if u are having tiles that has big grains/waves. So that the grains/waves will sort of match to the surrounding tiles. However if u are buying faint/uniform grains marble, dont really need to do dry laying cos it will cost money too.

    hi ringochong,

    actually feng shui is an art where to use everyday items and the arrangement of things in ur house to get the best positive energy and luck etc. to me (or my fengshui master), there is no need to specifically go and buy those toads or hulu or other artifacts. cos the fengshui master says, they uses arrangement and colour and everyday items to bring out positive energy. example are like, instead, of the wealth pot, they will ask u to buy a piggy bank and put at that specific spot etc. 

    of cos there are some that will ask u to buy stuff like the toad, some crystals, but as long as one is comfortable, why not? :)

    so sorry, but there is nothing you can do about it. because your floor tiles had already been laid..

    u can demand compensation from your id due to his/her mistake in using inexperience tilers or doing your house without due diligence, but i doubt your id will give you compensation.

    only 1 thing can rectify is to rehack everything and do again. but pls engage a good contractor

    then its time to tok your ID by running railway type of tracks light + concealment of trunking all over the living room. make your ID bleed :)

    no la, just joking. ur ID know u dont need that many track lights in living room. anyway, its track light. u just fix the light bulbs on the track. so basically they only install the tracks. i believe u can do some adjustment with your ID. if really cannot negotiate, then do the railway tracklight, same as the MRT+LRT map of singapore lor.

    TS, it is possible to do it with minimal disruption.. but, i can tell u, not many people will want to do. reason is, its a small job with lots of loose ends. secondly, u are going to activate many groups of workers. all these worker will have a minimum daily wages. although the job is small, but they will still charge u daily wages. and finally, your house is going to be cover in a layer of dust. this is because workers will need to sand/buff the edges of the tiles and this will create a lot of dust.

    if you really still want to do it, u can pm me
