Nice 3D drawings.

White is really nice.

I also wanted a white house. but now I'm having a black-white and glass cos we wanted to have black tiles for our living/dining rooms and bedrooms. and ID say white house very glaring.....mayb she meant bright.

Just love having glass at home. but really need to maintain especially with dust and fingerprints.

You getting a maid? cos dust is obvious on white surface too.

And really not easy to look for pure white furnitures.

Really cant wait to see your final product.

How much are you quoted for your reno?

The glass are ex :(

Hi everyone!

Mumu is back from hibernation mode! jus finish my exams~~~~ haha..

oohaahcantona10: thanx for your suggestions oohaa~ im beginning to search for the little accessories liao.. but dun dare to buy yet jus in case it doesnt match with my theme.. :P

Pinky X: Thanx PinkyX! u mean my master toilet wall tiles in black? wow, u doing a black kitchen ar?

newnyew: Hi Newnyew!!! :sport-smiley-004: let me congratz u on your new home first! :yamseng: so qiao, we both live yishun and both moving to Fernvale! Your first home also? Hmm, i think i know which singapore flyer flat u buy liao.. is it at 22 storey and own by a malay owner? :P found your renovator yet?

pinkiedreamy: No i wont be employing a maid.. dun like e feeling of having a stranger at home.. :) but im planning to invest on a good vacuum cleaner (osim iEcologi) to clean my house~~ went to take a look at how it works and im amaze that it can clean glass too (by using steam)! will be very useful for my glassy house.. but the vacuum is very expensive! $1288 at retail price.. have to start saving liao.. my reno cost till now is at $30,700 but its still increasing~ n yes, glass is very expensive!!

jus some updates.. my laptop kanna bluescreen and is under repair for now.. :bangwall: using office computer now.. :P

there had been some delays in the tiles work due to insufficient tiles for the living room so am currently waiting for new batch to arrive.. my aircon also got delayed as there is no stock! (trouble doesnt come alone... ... ... no more liao pls..)

some happy event: jus bought my stove, sink, oven and toilet wares yesterday! spend a bomb (to me)! will post the pics once my lappy is up! :D

newnyew: hehe.. sorry for e long wait! :P ya la, i think i know which flat u got.. i will pm u more details to confirm..

wah, u doing your own 3D drawing ar? how u plan to reno your place? overhaul?

my reno began for 3 weeks liao but the progress seems kinda slow.. mayb because the initial stage is the waterproofing so have to wait for it to dry before the tiles can be laid.. now only the 2 toilet tiles up liao.. kitchen tiles and electric works doing

now..

jus receive news from hubby that the new batch of living room tiles arrive liao.. but quality not as good!! :furious:

got to go another tile shop to choose later.. dunno will we be able to get the color we want ma.. :unsure:

long time no update.. dunno where to start from..

hmm.. so far, all tiles up liao, pipings up liao, aircon fixed liao (with very ugly pipings!) n flase ceiling + L-box done liao.. lets start with a review on the b4 n after pix!.. Starting with the tiling n piping works..

Master Toilet

Before: Naked toilet with walls hacked

IMG_1898-1.jpg

After: Tiles up (with ugly pipings yet to box up..)

IMG_2138-1.jpg

Common Toilet

Before: Naked toilet

After: Tiles up (with ugly pipings yet to box up..)

IMG_2150-1.jpg

Ugly pipings again.. how i wish every pipes can be hidden inside the wall... might b painting them all white if possible..

P1110291.jpg

Box up (with light)

P1110284-1.jpg

What the box up looks like from below

P1110269.jpg

No pix of living n dinning tiles yet as they are being covered for protection..

Overall quite satisfy with the laying of tiles as both hubby n me find e alignment to be quite straight n neat..

When doing random check on e reno, hubby found e workers checking our tiles 1 by 1 to ensure that the tiles are not cracked and in good condition before putting them into a big pail of water/chemical (to wash off the powder i suppose..) quite detailed.. :D

anything to look out for regarding the tiles besides the alignment??

Before e reno, the workers did lay protection cardboard to protect my 3 rooms parquet which i didnt change..

however, during e reno, some cardboard came loose n end up some parquet were exposed to the debris!! :curse: so worried that e parquet would get scratch n damaged!! my newly laid homo living room tiles were not spared either.. :(

did anyone faced the same problem? wat did u do?

we did mention to our ID but i think there is a limit he can do as he couldnt b supervising e workers all day long.. ..
