It is basically to produce a smooth flat layer of concrete or similar material... in older times, pple just do this for their flooring, cheapest option.

quote from BCA - Pointers For Homeowners - Floors Checks For Material Quality - The floor screed material should be produced by mixing water with one part of cement and three to four parts of sand of volume. - The sand should be clean and of diameter not more than 5mm. This can be achieved with the use of a sieve on site. - The sand should not have a high content of clayey material. - The correct amount of water should be used to give a consistent and workable mix. Checks For Quality Work - The floor base must be free from foreign matter before applying the screed mortar. - If the floor base is of smooth finish, hacking of closely spaced holes may be necessary. This is to ensure proper and adequate bonding between the screed and the floor base. - Upon mixing, the mortar is poured onto the floors spread out, levelled and screeded using steel trowels. - For smooth floor finish, an additional coat of cement slurry is used on the dried screed. The slurry is made by mixing cement with water. The coating should not be more than 1mm thick. - The screeded floor should be level and should not result in ponding of water anywhere. A spirit level should be used to check on levelness during screeding. - There should be no hollowness or poor bond of screed surface with the floor base. This is checked by tapping over it with a light wooden or pvc object. - Excessive crazing or hairline cracks should not appear on the screeded floor surface.

FYI - request for cement screeding from HDB "Request for cement screeding can only be done when you take possession of the flat. Pls let my staff know of your request when you take possession of the flat , so that they can give you the necessary form."

is this the one at BM central? there another 1 called Gek Ho... any1 used them before?

morning neighbours... been away a few days and this thread is sure moving fast!

quite a number of display item on sale... only ask the washing machine, discount at 12-25%... left after that cos pricing not attractive to us and haf to delivery within a month... our keys only ready end of the year.

that's good news. hopefully all of us can get the keys before xmas

Took this outside a renov firm in IMM. Might be a good reference for our small kitchen

can ask the expert here if planning a trip to both Tokyo and Hokkaido, how many days is recommend? Planning to visit all (if not most) of the theme parks there and also places of interest. Or will it be too taxing?

It will be crowded (as always with a real sale). Been to the philips sale a few times, some of the items sold are better priced than outside shops. And it happens only once a year (every Sept). I looking to get their home appliances, like iron, rice cooker among others. Of cos if the savings is great!

open communication is impt. of cos dun pay all before the renov work done is up to your expectation it easy. if u know what you want to do, what theme/mood to create, tell them abt it and ask for quotes. if you are clueless, that easier. Ask them to propose the design and then quote. For me, I have a rough idea of what I wanted to do and by talking with those IDs and contractor and them proposing new alternative to wat i wanted, the sketchy idea become a real design/plan.

still got time to source for your ideal contractors... get the prepration work done before actual works starts... then maybe can still make it for CNY. Btw it always peak period from Dec to Jan. Better to soft book the renov work before hand.

shld be cheaper than normal discount outside. went a few times, but be prepared as it will be super duper crowded

thanks for the information...

time to save some $$$...

XZQT has nice interesting clocks as well... they are now having a warehse sale at their west coast road outlet.
