  1. It is nearly 10 weeks since I chose my ID and 7 weeks since we started the reno journey together. I must say I am one of the lucky ones to have a very smooth, trouble-less renovation journey so far. Not that there were no trouble at all - there were challenges, design issues and sometimes work pace etc., But all these were resolved timely and in an acceptable fashion without any major hiccups. I released the payments on-time and my ID delivered all the work on time & continues to deliver the work on time and more importantly on quality. He is such a friendly, young bloke you will feel extremely comfortable dealing with. He surprised me quite a few times on : - his ingenuity in solving difficult issues, - flexibility: whenever I changed from the original design or asked for additions, he would think hard and give me a good solution - approachability: he would readily come down and discuss the issues in-person. not to speak of being in constant touch over whatspp. - honestness: he would also tell you in advance that he is going to be busy for a few days with other projects / client meetings. I really appreciated it; because I believe that I am not his only customer. Well folks, I am in the last leg of my renovation journey. If you like to read my reno story, click on the t-blog below. http://www.renotalk.com/forum/topic/66174-5-rm-resale-dream-home-project-strathmore/ I am happy to recommend my ID, if any of you are interested.
  2. Finally my beloved Dining Bench, Bar Counter and Cutlery Cupboard. ">http:// Gold color Tom Dixon type pendant lights to come-up above the bench. Waiting for it to be fixed! With doors open :- you can see my wine rack and bar counter on top of the wine rack. ">http://
  3. We have a nice space for Altar and Prayer. Notice the cute little triangle holes. These are to fit small bells. Because bell sound is auspicious and drive away evil. I asked my ID to make the cute little triangle holes to fit small bells. Initially he was :bangwall:cannot make so small holes leh and I was . Later when I explained he became . Then reluctantly he agreed . Now he is . ">http:// ">http://>
  4. Here's a view of the loads of storage we planned for the living. SHOE CABINET WITH VENTILATIONS & DISPLAY CABINET: The wood colored laminate are the open display cabinets. ">http:// BOOK SHELVES: I guess, we will have enough space to hold all our books. ">http://
  5. Up, up, up.. Carpentry is Up.. Like I mentioned earlier, carpentry is a big piece of project for us. With the full wall length of 29 feet of carpentry in living, now can see the home coming to shape. Here's the view of full wall carpentry in the living, very flush isn't it? ">http:// Another view of the flush wall carpentry: ">http://
  6. Someone told me Heritage Bathroom @ Geylang is having a SALE! Baron W888 WC + Basin @ $ 390 Happy shopping!
  7. Tiles are looking good as well. Where did you get your tiles from?
  8. Congrats! Your existing condition looks good. Happy Reno.
  9. I guess I already PM-ed you earlier . In any case, the toilet bowl I bought was Baron W-888 for both toilets. The trap for Master is S-trap 6 inches. The trap for common is P-trap. Size is 5 1/2 inches.
  10. Grass is greener the otherside.. Always.. LED track lights I got from Design Light @ 101, Jalan Besar, Jalan Besar Plaza. Very patient lady whether you buy small one off item or place big order. She can help you provide cost effective alternative based on budget. Try this shop.
  11. Hi, your floor plan is almost a mirror image of mine except the MBR and ledge..
  12. Welcome to reno blog. Wish you good luck in your reno journey.
  13. Nice looks and Easy maintenance. This is the general theme we applied throughout our reno in choosing items of our choice. Be it the choosing of tiles for Kitchen, Bathroom, the Kompactplus or the lights or the carpentry. Hopefully we are able to realise the dream.
  14. Track lights up. We decided to use E27 removable LED bulbs so that there is no need for replacing driver and all the stuff. If bulb spoil, just remove and replace the bulb. ">http:// ">http://
  15. Cove Lightings Up. We used T5 LED tubes to light up the cove instead of LED strips. Good decision by ID. I like the brightness and consistency it gives rather than the speckled effects the LED strips give. ">http:// LED Downlights from Avaric - Super nice huh! ">http://
