haha. i oso decided to close one eye n go with silver color. cos 1k more is really damaging to the pockets

Hi mwerkz, u also change all your windows and grills? How much does it cost u? I find the quote for silver color already very $$$ I find it very difficult to accept silver.

I am also abit piss off with my contractor when we discuss about the windows. He almost place order for the windows without consenting me first. Initially, he want to give me matt glass and change the number of window panes. Then this morning , he dropped this bombshell.

Ya 1k le.. I'd also go for silver.

But then.. if you can save from other areas to contribute to this 1k then ok lor.

haha, instead of saving I have been 'adding' on so most probably have to go for silver

My previous neighbour's home had white powder coated windows/grills, but after a few years cos of rain, the edges of window frames got rust marks. Think silver colour won't be so obvious ...

The new HDB flats windows are in bronze izzt??? Maybe i shd use bronze which suits my furniture...just worry that it will make the whole place darker.

Bronze and silver is the original color where u can see the metal finishing on the surface. Any other color u want can be powder coated onto them at a COST and the finishing will be much smoother This is why HDB windows only comes with those two color. Almost all private properties use powder coat windows... I saw a condo with grey frames with green glass...so envious

I guess you have to be prepared to fork out more for the windows if u want them to be in line with your country theme.

Toilet wall tiles submerged in water before they can be used

Closed-up view of toilet wall tiles. They will only be used for a small portion of the toilet, the rest will be covered with cream color. There are fine lines running across the tiles but can't be seen clearly after I resize the photo.

any idea why de tiles need to soak in water first?

Concrete tiles ba. Homo tiles no need. Concrete one need to soak to let it expand a bit. then lay down and can leave sufficient gaps. If not... if lay down dry then next time when absorb moisture it expand wun have enuff space then will crack.....
