hihi newbie alert!

bought a 4-rm resale at tampines (because of baby lah), still undergoing renovations, looks like going to be homeless this Hari Raya. in the meantime, living out of a suitcase at my parent's house. so poor thing hor? lol

anyways, we engaged an electrician to rewire the whole house, but they had to go through the old cornice in the bedrooms, leaving some gaping holes here and there. my ID is still a bit sore that i didn't use his overpriced electrician, and insists that i fix the holes in the cornice myself. i suppose the electrician should have done it, but he also go and taiji to my ID. anybody has any idea if this is something i can do myself, or if they know anybody who can do it cheap?

hello hello, fellow Tampines forummer!

we seem to have faced the same situation and challenges with our reno!! hahaha.. sekali our so-called ID is the same person!

he can tell me it is NEVER the electrician's job to patch up. anyway, they are in cahoots with each other, so i give up on them BOTH.

i got Nippon Professional painters to do my painting and they used white cornice plaster to seal all the holey holes and any chipped cornices. don't regret using them at all!

all the best with your reno!

i think the unspoken rule in the industry is: whoever creates the hole will patch it up
