  1. Hi everyone, in need of advice! I'm currently renovating my 30 year old resale flat and have a problem with the skirting done by my contractor. Before the renovation started, I went with his suggestion to have a tile skirting to match my floor (I wanted to go without skirting or have a white skirting but he said better to use the tiles). Now that the skirting is up, I'm unhappy with the outcome - the skirting looks thick, some parts look thicker than the rest and the finishes on top of the skirting are uneven/wavy. When I raised these concerns to my contractor, he said this is the tiler's technique (i.e. the skirting finishes with a slope upwards) and nothing more can be done as our walls are not straight. He said we can hack and redo with a flat finishing but it will be sharp at the edges (??) and he cannot promise it will look better. Basically, NOTHING CAN BE DONE. Can I seek forumners views: Is what my contractor said true - that nothing can be done? Is this kind of workmanship acceptable? See photos attached. Is it possible to hack away my skirting without damaging the floor tiles? At this point, is it possible to hack away and do without skirting OR replace with a skirting board? Thanks all in advance!
  2. Hi, I am wondering if anyone has an experience of repainting their floor skirting. Can a white-painted wooden floor skirting be repainted/ revarnished back to become its natural wooden colour again? Should I talk to a painter or carpernters? Thanks! ?
  3. Hi All, I was thinking of doing overlay of Vinyl Tiles on my existing on Terrazo flooring for my 3 NG resale flat. However, as the existing skirting is the curved kind (common for Terrazo flooring), it is necessary to hack off the existing skirting right . Was quoted $700 just to hack off the skirting for living room and 2 bed rooms. Need advise to know if the charges are reasonable. Also, I also prefer if its possible to overlay without any hacking. Appreciate all good advise. Thanks all !

  6. Hello all, Our original doors and door frames are all brown colour. Before starting renovation work we had told our contractor that we need all doors and skirting colour to be changed to off white. Now he is saying cannot change dark brown to white. He is saying " only way is to put a white oil paint coat on the brown doors and that will coating look very thick and the doors will look ugly". He is saying can change white doors to brown BUT cannot change brown doors to white. ( Now He is charging $2000 for staining and varnishing brown doors to walnut colour - 8 doors and house skirting). We wanted cream colour doors and skirting. Please please help.
