For those who wants to have a simple, functional theme. I have written down the companies I have worked with on my renovation. Please go through the few pages. I hope you have a hassle free and pleasant renovation journey.

Recently, I have to add on sliding windows and grills for service + grills for MBR toilet window. I didn't do the above when I was doing my renovation as I thought that it was unnecessary since the rain didn't get in but I was proven wrong in this monsoon season. I didn't get my original contractor as the quote he provided was significantly higher than usual. I went on to engage Simon Neo from AS PALACE DESIGN (Mobile: 97482867). He does my office renovation job for us. It was an eye opener working with Simon as his quote itemised everything! Never have I seen a contractor being so detailed! I was pleased with the work done. Cost me $725 for the above job. This is just for reference since each of us have different dimension and requirement. The company which did the window and grills is WAN SERN METAL INDUSTRIES PTE LTD at Tuas.

I'll show you photos these few days.

Yes. Box up was done in master bedroom. The area in front of the toilet.

For those who is looking for a qualified painter who has previously taken on projects from Kingsman to paint boutique like PRADA, bodyshop. Mr CHUA, freelance painter, TEO CHEW senior in his 60-70s providing reliable paint job. Mobile: 91941686. You may mention refer by Ah Ji. Mr CHUA helped us to paint our 4 room BTO and office.

Hi just to share. I heard from my two sister-in-laws saying praises of this foam sponge in DASIO which is totally amazing and they're so confident that it will solve my scrum issue on my shower screen. It's melamine sponge $2 white in colour, comes in different sizes. Bought and tested. Was blown away! $2 and 15 mins my stubborn scrum is gone with the rub using water and the sponge! I wash it to clean my basin and light switches too. Great product!

Thank you for your detailed sharing. I'll use those stronger cleaner to scrub off the stubborn stains.

Anyone has good solution to clean shower screen glass panel? There's "hard" water stain. Usual glass cleaner doesn't seem to work.

Master Chang gave us a choice. If we really want to tilt then let him know.

I totally understand what you went through! You can send your jade for certifying at a testing lab called Nanyang (?)... Google pls.

Hi, Thank you, it has been two months already. So far so good

Manged to find some pictures:

It was hard work by our painters as we painted our skirting white. Originally was wood provided by HDB but my unit skirting was done badly in terms of colour and attachment. The painting job was done by a very experienced painter who charges us for the paint only. Outside quote is about $1600-$1700 inclusive of skirting.

I think we selected the totally white type. iQuartz. I can't remember the actual cost. It is between $2200 to $3000 I think total length is about 14 to 15 feet. iPure White. This is the portfolio:

I think it's $3850 by starcool. Ah Boon Box up by contractor is $500.

I have a few members asking me for the quote of my renovation. I don't share as there are many amendments on the copy and I feel that you should have the contractor for an onsite quotation. I have only asked for 2-3 quotes for my renovation so I'm not too sure what's the definition of expensive or cheap as my references are based on that few quotes. My main consideration is the attitude and reliability of the contractor. I have left the number of my contractor in my signature. You can contact Alan directly. I don't get anything in return for sharing the project he has done for us. Cheers.

Pls PM me if you have qns as I don't check t blog often.

Looking for brown pebbles? We finally found them at Tai Kwang Farmart Centre. Great pricing too. Most of the aquarium and nursery only have grey, white & assorted color pebbles. http://www.taikwang.com.sg/Contacts.html

I don't have the thickness of iQuartz now but I've uploaded my kitchen top in the earlier post. If you can accept then go ahead and ask your contractor to build a cement structure for sink area.

Engaged Pertapis movers to shift our belongings from two locations to our new house. Very satisfied with their services. Competitive pricing too. We have about 20-25 boxes/bags and some big items. We have spoken to another mover but find it too troublesome to fit into their standard box size. We prefer to pack till the last min so we can't decried the exact number of boxes so they can't quote us. We are glad that Pertapis is more flexible.
