Can share what is recess skirting, is it expensive?

v hard to explain in words but i try... ;)

from wat i understand from my id, steel angle plates will be embedded into the recess before the floor tiles are laid and tag into the recess. the finished work will be a recess of abt 1" high x 1" wide recess all round the living and dining area. this is to create a sleek look when wall meets floor tiles. no more conventional skirting all round. :sport-smiley-018:

hope can post a pic of it soon. pics are better than thousand words :P

Wah concealed then wun see all the ugly stuff. but does it make the toilet smaller?

yes all the ss water pipes are concealed. either run behind false ceilings or embedded into the brickwalls, so doesnt affect the area at all :good:
