    Hi Klimoo. Loving those furniture from second charm. Your house looks so warm and cosy. Care to share your reno and second charm quote?

    reno cost is ard 40k, second charm price can be found on their website and it depends on your bargaining skills. haha!

    can share the link for your track light? is this the type where u need to change the whole assembly when the bulb blows?

    i dun think i have the link after so long, all the bulbs can be remove individually.

    Hi Klimoo, Possible to PM me how much is your kitchen wooden bi-fold door?, it's done by your ID or you source from your only contractor? Thanks.

    the door is around 800 i think, this design is available from most door suppliers. we told our contractor that we wanted this design and he went to get from his supplier.

    Hi Klimoo, could you PM the contact for the blinds? Many thanks.

    I love your small breakfast counter in the kitchen. My kitchen is too small so I have been cracking my head on creating a breakfast counter.

    we got our blinds from golden leaf.

    Hello there,

    Can you pm me the price of the extendable dining table from Novambili and the model name of the table as well?

    Thank you!

    the model is "simple"

    The wooden bi-door is very nice, can pm me your supplier? :D

    it is from our contractor (ah k), i dun have the supplier name. but i believe it is available from most supplier.

    Hi there, not sure if you know whether are there other materials available for the extendable table?

    I like this table but will need a tempered glass type to fit the design theme of my house :)

    Cheers!

    think there are black colour for the metal legs, for the laminates i cant really rmb, but you can drop by TOTO showroom to have a look and to enquire on the different colours available!

    Hi elin,

    Congrats for your new home!

    Your wooden drawers actually looks nicer than the metal drawers.

    Blum offers runner system (blum track underneath wooden panel) as well as the tandem box system (metal drawer). Prices are available for download. Just need to Google for the price list.

    Technically speaking, they are all still blum system. If you need to verify you can take out the drawers and look at the runners. The runners should have blum logo engraved on them.

    Can't wait to see your photos after you reload them.

    Today was the first time we used our washing machine and to our horror, our washing machine drainage pipe is stuck! :jawdrop: So the water kept gushing out of the pipe instead of through the pipe and after our noob attempts at unclogging, it still remains stubbornly clogged.

    We did check all the pipes in the house before, to ensure they could all flow. This was after the first round of cleaning. During those times there was no problem with the washing machine pipe but we did unclog dried plaster in the toilet's drainage pipes. One was even as big as a fist! For this we had no idea if its due to hdb or contractor, and we cleared everything ourselves.

    We called mr k and thankfully he said he'll send his men down to check. But before that we may first go to bsc to see if they can help us to unclog it.

    So to all who are gg to start/in the process of reno, rem to check all the pipes for drainage before and after reno if you can!

    hihi, nice renov. where you get this sofa bed?

    Hi pinkyceline, the sofabed is from the design store by lifestorey. But its not branded like some of the items they sell there so fortunately the price is also unbranded price lol. We bought it two months ago and they were clearing stock for this sofabed, which was the "leftovers" after they mass produced/sold it to some private development.

    Just received our sofa bed today! We needed a sofa bed that can sleep two for when our families are staying over. Many of the sofa beds we saw were either too wide or very clunky looking. This is smaller than a queen sized, fits into our second bedroom nicely and still wide enough for two :)

    Very easy to convert it into a bed even if its just by myself :) have also bought a mattress topper from tb to make it more comfortable!

    Thanks klimoo! That was extremely useful indeed, guess what our contractor was saying was correct after all. Initially we had hoped to just see the door knob without any of the locks or hinges etc, but guess that's not possible.

    Btw, could you pm me the cost of your door please? Thanks!

    Sent! :)

    Nice doors klimoo. We are doing a double door for our mbr, but our contractor says that one of the door panels needs to be locked in order for the other to open. Does yours have a lock anywhere? I can't seem to see from the pictures. Also does the fact that your doors are louvered mean that aircon can escape?

    Edited: just realized that the louvered door is your toilet door. how do you solve the aircon escaping problem?

    Hi vicx1234, there'll definitely be some cold air escaping but any negative effect on the cooling of the room is not noticeable to us, so we didn't do anything about it.

    The photo below shows the size of the gaps between the louvres.

    Yes the doors cannot be opened easily unless one panel is locked in place, allowing the other panel to swing open. This should be the lock your contractor is referring to.
    0wwb.jpg
    The reason why the two panels cannot be opened simultaneously should be because of the L-groove of the panels. It causes the two panels to 'stick' to each other. This is a top down view of the groove.

    And lastly, the lock for the doors, which is the same as our kitchen bifold's lock.

    Hope the above helps!

    Can pm me the price?? :)

    PM-ed!

    Thanks klimoo. Before having passed on the laminate codes to my wife, she already had her eyes set on the Hermes Marcello Walnut! So we're going to end up with the same kitchen cabinet laminate as you (I hope you don't mind). It's so good to have a reference picture to view now that your cabinets are already up, thanks!

    Hee of course we don't mind. We are loving the look of the kitchen laminates and I think you'd love it too when its up! Good choice! :sport-smiley-018:

    Hi hi, may i know where u bought your masterbed room sidetable?

    Thanks!

    Hi Yeocando, we bought the bedside table from second charm.

    Hmm my house also going to be full length windows haha jialiat means high chance I cant do storage platform as well. May I know what material did Mr K used for your platform? the $800 inclusive of the laminate also?

    The platform was done by carpentry, and the material used is the same as those used for the cabinets, which should be plywood with laminates on the surface. Yes the $800 includes the laminates.

    Hi klimoo

    Like to check with you, your bi-fold door for kitchen, which side does your door swing toward to? Because I saw your picture and think you did not relocate the kitchen switches right?

    I did not re-locate my switches and though if I wanted to get either PD or bi-fold, if the doors swing towards the switch, it will be troublesome to on-off the light?

    Please kindly advise.

    Thanks!!

    Hi linakua! The kitchen door folds to the left wall in the picture, so yup I did not have to relocate any switches. You are right, if the door folds to the right, it will be troublesome as it will block access to the kitchen switch and I think the bigger problem is that a portion of the door will jut out, so its quite in the way. When ours fold to the left, it will just be against the wall, so it wouldn't hinder movement much. Hope this helps and we'll post a picture of the folded door when we are back!

    Hi klimoo, congrats on a nice renovation! Place looking good.

    Could I ask which laminates you used for the kitchen bottom cabinet and the toilet vanity? They look to be the same but I could be wrong.

    Thanks vicx1234! The laminates are different lol sorry for my poor photos! the wood laminates used for the kitchen is Hermes Marcello Walnut, WY5217D, which is a darker brown while for the mbr vanity counter we used Amber York Teak, WY5232D. Both are from lamitak.

    Hi klimoo, nice reno! Where did you get your tv console and bed frame from? thanks!

    Thanks ollie! The tv console is from second charm, and you can customize the dimensions and even the design of the console. The bed frame is from commune.

    Nice!!!

    Thank you linsullen! :sport-smiley-018:

    Mind sharing how much does Mr K quote you for the platform and for the brick wall?

    Your platform can it be used for storage?

    Coz I planned to do a platform storage.

    Hi xiaohuiis, we were quoted about $800 for the platform and it has no storage. We didn't do a platform with storage as ours is only about 15 cm high due to the full length windows. For the brick wall we were quoted 2.8k which was an estimated quote. Actual prices have not been confirmed yet!

    Even the fine details are well thought out.

    Looks so cosy, thumbs UP! :good:

    Hellloooo Barleywater!! hahaha thanks for the compliments. :D We tried to ensure our home will be comfortable, functional and at the same time cosy! hee. So so we tried as much as we can to visualize what we'll need when we are staying there. There are a couple of things we missed out on, such as not having planned a power point for a standing fan in the mbr. We also wished we had added a power point above the shoe cabinet so that we can charge our phones there haha. Electrical works happen quite early in the reno stages so must have a plan ready soon after reno starts!

    Thanks Klimoo, I know what you mean already. Are those Lourved wood doors in the bedroom and bifold as well meaning fold to one side like your kitchen doors. Nice combi with the MBR and the cabinet and Lourved door!

    Hee thanks for the compliments I like the combi v much too! :lol: Planning to add a dresser, mirror and chair to the empty space and hopefully they'll come together nicely! Nope the louvered doors in the mbr is not a bifold. It opens from the center and swings outwards, hence my green door mat have to place far far haha

    Very lovely! Congrats!!

    Thank you Makanology! :D Now can graduate from reno journey and move on to deco journey! Hee

    Don't mind can you show me how the bifold door of your kitchen works? pm will do also. =)

    Does it push two ways or works like a typical aluminum bifold toilet door, fold to one side?

    Hi titanus, its works like a typical aluminum bifold door! Just that this is wood and glass hee. So basically it will fold to the left and the track is on top. The door can only be locked from the kitchen side and the lock is like a metal strip which 'locks' by working as a barrier against the two pieces of door to prevent them from folding up. Currently I don't have any pictures of the folded door but I'll take pics the next time I go back!

    No dining area?

    Hi Sappyd, yes we do have a dining area just outside the kitchen but the dining table was just delivered today and shortly after the caterer came and we had to set up the table for the mini buffet. So no pics for the dining area yet! But will take photos n post as soon as I can :)

    Hi, where did you get the table from and cost? Does it comes with the drawers?

    Hi OceanEleven, the study table is entirely from Ikea! For the table, we are using the 1.86m Numerar birch worktop together with Adils legs. The drawer in the middle is an Alex drawer unit. The drawer unit is a must for support as the worktop is solid wood and too heavy for just 4 legs. So for this combination, it will cost $335.
