Updates

Hasn't been updating lately due to no much movement for the past few days. Don't be mistaken, it was not Mr Yeak's problem but ours instead. Tiling was already done last Saturday and plastering on Sunday. Painter guy also came on Tuesday afternoon to give the house a coat of oil based sealant. The next step left is to do up the wiring. As we are rewiring the entire house, FIL has engage his friend to help out whom can only start work on this coming Tuesday. So from tuesday onwards, we expect the reno to be in full swing again. :sport-smiley-018: Anyway, this weekend also let both of us have a good break in between the reno. =)

Anyways, here are some pics of the current state of the house.

Dining feature wall tiles. Different colors under different lightings and angles. Couldn't get a decent shot in the day before it was sealed up. Will take a better picture next time when there is opportunity.

Hi Sixer,

From your picture of the kitchen wall backing, does it mean that Yeak's workers won't be tiling the area behind the cabinet? Thanks.

Kitchen looks v big with the white tiles now. :)

Nope, Yeak does not tile behind cabinets. Mine also don't have. But if u want, u can request for it. Then he'll just charge the extra tiles cuz gota order more.

ya mine also don't have tiles behind cabinets....guess costing will be higher....

@sixer...your tiling looks great...looks good even close up!!! :good::thumbs up:

hmm..your reno seems slow lei,the flooring not done yet? :rolleyes:

reno is slow due to the delay in the rewiring work. but it's still alright for us as we are not in a hurry to move in.

what flooring? flooring is marble and will only be polished during clean up, before carpentry.

as mentioned by others, you can if you wished to, just pay a little more $. but imo, no point la, tile already also cannot be seen.

i think it looks big cause it is still empty. when the cabinets are up it will be a different story.
