Hi, Ho Bee is a contractor as mentioned on my thread. Perhaps you can call them up to check. They may be able to give some ideas but I will not associate them as ID. Hope it helps.

Thanks for the compliment. We bought it at quite a bargain. I think it's a light shop near Rocher Canal and we paid less then $600 for it I think Been awhile. hehe

Hi all, it's been almost 2 1/2 years since we completed our renovation and we have not been active on this forum since. However, we felt compel to contribute once again. We had some issue with one of the hinges of our bomb shelter which is mainly due to wear and tear. Today, we called our contractor Ho Bee and they were fast to arrange for someone to come by to have it fixed. Note, we were prepared to pay them a service fee as the loose hinges it's not entirely their fault. It was only 1 hinge that gave way but they tightened and fixed up all the hinges for the 2 bomb shelter doors. In addition, we requested for a door stopper to be fixed at our main door and they did it obligingly. What really shocked me was that they did not collect a penny from us. We felt bad but was truly touched. Our renovation was so long ago and they are no longer obligated to do all these for us. This is what we call responsibility and also after sales service. Till date, we have not regretted our choice to choose Ho Bee as our contractor and will continue to recommend our friends for their service. http://www.hobeereno.com.sg/

Not the magnetic type...

Anybody has any good recommendation on this. The gap between my main door and the floor is really small. Most door stoppers cannot go through smoothly. I bought a weighted door stopper from Zone but it doesn't seems to hold my heavy door well. Please let me know if you have a solution for me

Hi, I have a thread at Boutique Design Home...our Dream Segar. Happy reno...

Hi, yes the knife was purchased from Europe. For seeing if it matches or not, you have to cut out the picture of that furniture and 'paste' it on your plan to see the match. That can be done with a computer of course. Have fun on your process...

Sorry for the late reply as I am not so active in this forum now. The dimension is about 5.5" for the width and 7.5" for each shoe space. Height and width can be done according to your space available. Hope it helps.

Hi, thank you for your compliments. ID or contractor? We "designed" the place ourselves and had a contractor to built the things for us His contact is on the thread above. You may scroll up to see

I just wanted to comment on Neo Garden's poor marketing skill. They entice customers with the 1st time "no transportation" charge offer. How about their returned customers? Ok, I take it as they are only interested in a one-time business kinda deal. To top it off, the vouchers and promotion offers they gave away are with tons of terms and condition. Either: (i) valid on Mon-Fri only ~ how many of us here have the time to organise for buffet parties on Mon-Fri? Even if we do, how many can make it? As if we do not have to work. (ii) valid with a minimum order of $350 and above ~ ya right!!! To me, if you are not willing or generous with your offers, might as well don't give. Anyone have any good caterer contacts? Someone who can cater to smaller groups say 15-20 pax. I am talking about a few groups of 15-20 pax. Come on, we are all leaving in the newer generation of smaller flats these day. Splitting your groups is the way to go when hosting. No?

Hi, joschia. $21K does not include the tiling as we took the HDB main tiles for our flooring. We top-up another 1.2K for both our toilet wall & floor tiles, done by HDB. The $21K was during the first closure of the reno with Ho Bee. We added some work along the way. By the end of our reno, our final invoice was an additional $1,760 (after discount) for our wardrobe and additional $800 for our shoe rack. Fixtures and fittings refers to taps, sinks, curtain, etc etc
