  1. Bro, Innovation comes with a price..... spray paint finish's cost price from direct spray painter is @ $23/sqft Are you prepared to pay such price?
  2. i used them rencently for my reno as im too lazy to manage it myself. they can be cheap if you know the industry well. personally im doing commercial shop fitout only so i know the costings etc.. and i made it clear to them that if i find them marking up too high, i will get my own guys to do.
  3. my MBR toilet now facing the same problem.... it was chocked once during reno and my contractor retified it. now the same thing is happening. where is the pan collar?? my kitchen toilet and MBR one is different. me at 27B 5rm
  4. I dont think so.... my contractor threw one of those for me at the void deck... seen some other doors there too. guess nobody botheres to keep these doors. However, I must admit that the door afre of good quality...
  5. Im a project manager myself doing commercial work. But i still get a "main con" to renovate my house... reason being that I dont have so much CASH to pay my contractors. Renovation loan is pay by the bank to the contractor directly. Therefore, if you dont have so much cash to spare, the next best alternative is to engage a Id or contractor. Since Im in this line, thus the margin my main con got from me is @ 12%. Personally, I think its fair.
  6. you can actually install a DVR set with one of your camera facing the walkway to record. alternatively, place a dummy camera at your door step to deter crime..
  7. As with all solar flim installed in the car, no matter how good it is, your car will be as hot after @ 4 hours of direct sunlight. with or with out solar flim. Therefore, if your getting afternoon sun, even with solar flim installed, your house will not be much cooler.... The rational is the same as putting you meat in the freezer, no matter what kind of packaging you have, it will freeze eventually, just a matter of time.
  8. This dark line is a common issue when using laminate. This can be corrected by telling your carpenter to mix the paint to your laminate's colour and paint over the lines. Hokkien is call "tua chaq"or (pull paint). Alternatively, is to have ABS edging done. Or you can choose to have colour core laminate. This laminate's core has the same colour of your surface, price wise would be higher..... What I would suggest you to do is to tell your carpenter to touch up the lines by painting it over. Its industry practice for it to be done.
  9. Im on dunlopillo too. the full latex millieum series for $4288. so far 3mth still gd.
  10. If the contractor tells you he doesnt have stock, tell him you have some contacts and would gladly sell the same tile to him. just wack him a sky high price and demand that if he cant find stock, he will need to buy from you. This bed maker of mine, told me the same crap after I placed a deposit. say the fabric I choice no more stock blah blah blah.... and recommended me some other fabric thats "more expensive".... Told him that I can get the fabric and he would have to reduce the price by $35/sqm if I were to provided him with it.... in the end, his boss decided to "specially indent" the fabric just for me. If this anit a load of bullsh*t, what is?
  11. Its common for plywood to warp.... thats y if you see the cross of the timer you use, it would not be a full piece of timer, you would see rectangle shapes of different shades. this will prevent warping. then again, if the timer is 4' X 8' it should be fine, warping would be pretty minimal... the doors, backwalls I've built seldom has this problem.
  12. i got the castle one... .as per the one you see in the lift. That guy selling for 150 i heard... but got it at Sing Ma Hup Kee Hardware @ 112 after GST.
  13. if you wanna your hss door to open till more than 90 deg, you just need to do a larger feature wall door. however, i dont see the point to have the hss door opening till more than 90deg... Im in the 5 rm unit, thus my feature door can be larger to allow the hss door to swing out more. cant comment if its a 4rm.
  14. I did all the above... 1) unfortunately yes. inless you have the budget to re-pipe your house..... 2) im ard 1.7m tall. all fine.h
  15. correct, it will be more difficult to clean compared to conventional matt laminate. matt laminates, you just need to use the cloth to wipe from left to right once. But using textured laminated, you need to wipe from left to right then back to left..... thats a 100% increase in effort required. scary ya...... end of the day, if you like it, get it!
