since i was on off today, decided to drop by my new home to see the progress. kinda surprised to see so much work done just from 1+ i left my flat on sat till today :dancingqueen:

anyway work done today (1day):

- forget to check if all the skirting done up

- approx 50% of wall tiling done in kitchen

- approx 95% of floor tiling done in kitchen (left with the cabinet base for the island)

- common toilet fully tiled on wall n floor (except the mosaic again :( )

- all electrical wiring removed (i think electrician oso pulled some new wires for the workers to on one light)

- approx 60% of wall tiling in mbr bathroom done up

at the speed things are going, it shuldn't be a problem to complete masonry work by wed :D

so for now, it's pics time!

actually the cost of this decorative tile is the same as the rest of the mbr common tile. 3.60psf. definitely not as expensive as my common bathroom decorative tiles

hehe. electrical works will begin this friday! but for the new lights to all go up, that'll take another 2more weeks?

anyway my lights are all pretty simple. no fancy lights. juz bright enugh to light up the house. so sometimes i still wonder y i m spending like 1110bucks for lights not inclusive of the cost of t5/t8/floresent lights, cos for those i got my electrician to buy :dunno:
