Hey sushibabe, so who's e ID u'd ngage Hey Liana79B, e 'stuffs' u gona buy, most of e time seems 2 mi beri special 1 or different frm many of us lei. Mayb u wana consult e sales exec at e respective shop. Think they shd b able 2 give u their profesional advice & info. 2 mi, both shd b e same bah, except e material Hey meepok, i share e same tots s u. So how's ID hunting

mi gota learn. Btw, wats 'fa kua'? Cant realy figure out frm e translation? Hey shutiao06, mi jus replied in ur 'Firms & Services' thread on Decomark. So ID who? Reno status?

Hey shutiao06, how? ngage them? Half yr ago, wen i was hunting ID for my new hm reno, i chance upon their 'showcase' in RADAC website. I kinda like e effect, so all e way, i travelled frm Woodlands to Jurong, to e office & showroom at Jurong East. Was serve by a middle age guy (4goten name liao). Told him my requirements, budget. Then he on-e-spot, sketch out e proposed designs. >1hr spent in discussing e design, was kinda dissapointed, so jus had 2 accept watever designs he proposed. Dun wana waste my time further. On-e-spot, he calculated for mi e quote for e whole reno contract. e pricing was average. But e design theme, materials & colour scheme all r against my expectations & requirements which i had told him at e begining of e consultation. He's olso not clear abt e type of finishes & e normal layout of my new hdb standard flat, despite he said he's a senior in e industry. Conclusion, did not nage them, so cant comment abt e workmanship & service. Mayb i got no luck in e correct ID frm dat co. e 'showcase' in RADAC website is merely 3D drawings, not completed projects.

Hey zanie98, how reno status? Wat u'd been quoted shd b jus e runners only. Fyi, normally, the drawers is made of solid plywood, white pvc finish internally, laminate finish externally, ABS trimming at 4-sides of cabinet door, alum recessed handle or 'designers' handle. To mi, i find $50 for a complete drawer is cheap? Hey vowsh, read thru e past few pages. There's a discussion on e haulage thingy. 4rm-$800-$900 5rm-$1000 -) Both payable to e term-contractor who sub e whole haulage contract for blk 79. -) Town council fees is another sum (<$200), w or w/o hacking, b'cos TC provided e debis collection tank oleady. See whether izit include in your quotation from ID. Correct mi if i'm wrong.

i got a simple plan. Mayb one of us can go befriend e 'workers' esp e foreman who r doin e Haulage & Clearing of debris. Tel them dat They r being watched bcos of many theft cases. Once being caught red-handed, they will b jailed , fined & rotan . If they r e one, they sure scared, then theft cases may b able 2 reduced. If they r not e one, then they may b able help us hav e lok-out, as they r phsically at 79 working frm morning till nite.

aiyo, we pay such high price 4 e 'flat' yet get a cheap doorbell cover, so eazily remove dun tel mi e doorbell cover is made of Gold take 4 wat got nice door at refuse area dun take take doorbell cover. STUPID

u mean e white color square plastic cover with a bell imprint?

Hey, if i'm not wrong, e plot of land between e Toa Payoh Entertainment Ctr & e main road, near e entrance to hdb hub, already tendered out. Its a small mix development, low-rise, with office & commercial space. Yrs bak, b4 e old 79 was being Enblock, there were oleady rumours dat e Road In Front of 79 would b closed & replaced with Paved Walkway. Push-carts etc can do business there. Yesterday, e rumours surface again. Haha. For now, e 2 confirmed residential developments in TPY, r e DBSS site at lor 1A, and Condo at lor 2/3. Come bak 2 e ERP thingy. Actually, e gahment can consider 1) Lor 8 (rd beside canal to change direction), 2) Toa Payoh Rise (1-way section outside Girls Home to becomes 2-way). Think dis shd increase e existing 5 rd entries into Toa Payoh to 7. Now 79 got Secret Code liao.

Aiya, small matter, u r not at fault lah. Jus dat our timings bei gum nai mah. So u went Sungei Kadut? International Furniture Centre? IFC got quite a nos. of brands available there. Manage to buy ur desire sofa set?

And e kitchen is over there? Normal floor cleaning agent olso canot?

Hey Yang Guo, i agree with h4happy, e final product seems Its a pity i'd missed e 'kpo session' 2day.

Hey, Welcome! Welcome! Spend some time read thru e forum other threads, u wil find very useful tips, infos & lobangs. Regarding e 79 thread, u may wana try 2 read frm mid yr 07 onwards. Dunoe how 2 choose ID or contractors? Y dun u check with ur frnd who's unit is currently renovating? u can olso team up with ur e other frnd, go hunting 2gether lah. Btw, fyi, e postal code for blk 79 is 315079. Cheers.

Mayb thers a catch in e above sentence It would b HEART-WARMING if - Toa Payoh residents motorists got immunity frm dis ERP gantry or - Toa Payoh residents motorists would b issued with special IU/cash card dat would not deduct wen passing thru dis gantry. This in turn deters non Toa Payoh residents frm entering via dat rd during operational hrs. Lessen e traffic. If dats e case, e gahment is HAPPY, Toa Payoh residents olso HAPPY.

Hey sunzhi, my las qns is e space between e top & lower kit cabnts. Izit gona b Stainless Steel Backing or Coloured Glass Backing or Green Glazed Wall Tiles? e color scheme is wat i had in mind 4 my upcuming... Lookin 4ward... Cheers.

Hey almonddust, u shd hav gather s many TPY ppl petition signatures s possible b4 u email in. Actually, i kinda lost. Dunoe izit gona b charge IN or OUT of TPY? Can i noe wher is e exact loc of e new ERP gantry at TPY lor 6? 1) Exit frm Braddell Rd (come frm Bartley Rd), enter TPY lor 6; 2) Exit TPY lor 6, enter Braddell Rd, 2wards Bishan Rd /Marymount / Lornie Rd; 3) Exit TPY lor 6, via TPY North Flyover, enter Braddell Rd, 2wards Bartley Rd; 4) Exit frm Braddell Rd (come frm Bishan Rd /Marymount / Lornie Rd), via TPY North Flyover, enter TPY lor 6.

Hey TPY, not 4geting e mthly loan instalment. Once keys collected, $$$ starts 2 deduct liao. Unless e 'flat' is fully paid. (no loan frm hdb or bank) Wonder wen e water & elect & gas bill starts 2 take effect? Btw, conservancy charges is payable to Town Council, not hdb. There r stil ID/contractors willing to take-up prj during e CNY period. Though majority of e reno workers r foreigners (go bak hmland to celebrate), there r olso some who r locals who r willing 2 work during CNY period. The main thing is to get e required materials ready b4 e materials suppliers close 4 e yr. Fyi, my keys collection day had further delayed since nov07 til mar08. (not solely bcos of no manpower durin CNY)

Hey renosay, mayb its new, so not many ppl noe & ngage them loh. Think they r not hdb licensed contractor. No accredition to BCA, RADAC, CASETRUST ...
