Master toilet wall tile done.. I think they are quite fast..

IMGP0300.jpg

Common toilet wall tile done.. it looks like purely white.. but actually there is some pattern on it..

IMGP0305.jpg

I think the Common toilet tiles are done quite nicely.. the gaps are small and linear.. but I am not good at these things.. what do you guys think?

IMGP0306.jpg

IMGP0307.jpg

ah.. this one can see the pattern.. the actual one will be more obvious than the pic..

IMGP0308.jpg

FAST!

Oh.. not so fast lah.. the most optimitic schedule is end Aug can finish every thing.. that was the very initial schedule.. but it starts to drag since the first week.. On paper first week should be 3 days for hacking and 2 days for aircon and sth else.. in the end hacking used 3 full days and remaining 2 days was to clear the debris.. aircon is scheduled to be installed this friday.. (now is the 3rd week) :)

but then, we are not in a hurry lah.. as long as we can move in by early Nov.. it is fine with me.. I dun wan to rush the ID also... :P we really have quite a lot of things to do... ;)

this weekend the ID will bring us to bring the hook and hob, basin and toilet bowl.. any recommendation on places to get these? :dunno:

hmm.. heard that is the supplier would bring the wallpaper collection to the ID firm.. the 'brand' or name of the 'collection' (I guess.. it is printed behind the wallpaper) is 'Elusive' and 'Yokohama'...

Continue to report on the tiling progres...

Think common toilet tile is layed better than master toilet tile leh.. but ID said after they clean up the gaps it would be the same.. ai.. hope so..

Master toilet tiles..

Living room tile

IMGP0324.jpg

I like bright color in the living room.. especially after seeing the black flooring from the ex owner..

IMGP0325.jpg

We found out that it is HDB who level up the original flooring for the first owner to be 3 inches! :jawdrop:

IMGP0321.jpg

IMGP0322.jpg

We have no choice but also have to level up to 3 inches in order to mater the room flooring.. (we didn't hack away the room parquet).. :curse: think my ceiling will be very low also after the false ceiling.. :bangwall:

The ex owner of our unit overlaid the tiles, perhaps twice and had many false ceilings, cornices throughout. When we first visited the unit, we felt like Gandalf in a hobbit's house! :lol:

During renovation, we were told that the part of flooring in the kitchen can't be hacked. That's disappointing to hear as we were hoping that with just cement screed flooring, we could have a higher ceiling clearance.

We'd like to get ceiling fans but we do not have the minimum height clearance. :(

Would you be having any ceiling fans?

Oh.. Kitchen flooring can't be hacked? did your ID tell you why?

We won't have ceiling fan. But we would have some hanging lights/chandelier.. so.. ceiling too low is also a headache for us... :(

Ceiling fan has minimum height limit? by HDB?

minimum height clearance should be 2.4m by HDB ruling

i.e. flooring to object nearest should be at least 2.4m

e.g. ceiling fan etc :yamseng:

What is the height of your ceiling?
