Hi sensei_erictan, Me and my wife also experienced theft on our shoes. Both our running shoes were lost. We learnt our lesson never to leave our shoes outside except for those older shoes. At first we thought the theif was after those branded shoes. But just last month or so, my wife's slipper was stolen and a pair of old slippers which does not belong to us was placed outside our door. From then we knew it was a prank and the fellow was out to have fun. Duno who so boliao as to do such sickening pranks. Just be careful not to leave any shoes lying outside liao.

Cos i've been to my house a few nights.. and sometimes when i switch on certain lights, the power just trip.. wonder if its common or my electrician didnt do a good job? One thing is that i got alot of lights around the house.. hmm And also how much roughly does it cost to install window grill? Any feedback on ktypes and kinds of window grill.. Thanks I'll be shifting most of my things tmr.. should be anytime can move in.. At last reno is completing soon.. next will be furniture hunting and lots of cleaning up of the house.. When its more ready hope to invite all neighbours.. erm will there be any house hoping? Hee.. i missed those house hoping days..

Hello neighbours, Just to share... Today, i went up to my unit with my parents. Then there was this guy who claim that our current gate is unsafe as it can be remove easily. He showed us a newspaper article cutout from Straits Times (which i just took a glance) saying that there have been cases of thieves removing the gates. So, his main purpose here was to help us to change to a better hinge which somehow reinforce the security. He said that most of our neighbours at BLK 79 has done it. He told us that it will cost us about $18-27 per hinge, depending how many hinges we want to change, it also includes duno wat spray paint etc.. While we r stil pondering, my dad ask him for his contact but he was unable to produce. So.. we rejected his offer. I was wondering if anyone have experience this before? Did any of you guys did change your hinges kind of thing? Thanks =)

My ID said tat he will give me normal glass panel for the kitchen cabinet backing but after reading ur info, i think i will insist him on giving me tempered glass. Its near the stove leh...

Hello neighbours, I've a problem here but dunno if its the norm.. I wanted my foyer area to be pebble wash.. but later on decided to change it to another tone of tiles.. different from the main homo tiles. My ID quoted me $2.50psf so any tiles more than that have to top up the diff.. My foyer tiles is $3 psf.. At first he told me the foyer area needs abt 50 tiles.. so by right should be the diff in tiles, $3-$2.50=$0.50, then multiply 50 tiles.. = $25 But he charging me $250.. reason being.. - cos i requested for a slope cut (pic below), one cut $75, there are 2, so 2x$75 = $150 - i changed the tiles fr pebble wash to this tiles so the workers have to come another day so need to pay them workmanship pay $50 - then he charge me instead of $0.50 psf he charge $0.60 cos GST - he claim he order 70 tiles.. so 70x$0.60=$42.. but he round up to $50.. So total $50 + $50 + $150 = $250.. Is it reasonable? i asked him he told me it is standard.. very cheap le.. What i dun understand is that the foyer is only a small area and the diff in tiles is only $0.50 yet it can amt to 10x the price.. What do ur neighbours feel? I really need some comments and guidance
