I think I got carried away with the hacking :lol:

Maybe it won't look so huge after the furniture is in.

Haven't explored the neighborhood. Only know I'm close to Thomson Plaza. Will check out the market soon. Thanks for the info.

End of Week 1: Cement/Tiling Works

Cement work is coming along slowly and steadily. It's like watching paint dry. So painfully slow but essential. Certain things can't be rushed.

The guest toilet is reinstated. The previous owner hacked the toilet and replaced it with a pantry cabinet. Had to put it back as I don't expect my guests to climb upstairs to use the toilet.

The aircon team came in to run the trunking through the bedrooms. Looks more like elephant trunk! Need to get my ID guy to wrap it up nicely.

Managed to get HDB approval for the aircon condenser to be installed outside. Glad I don't have the chunky condenser buzzing over my head in the balcony.

The metallic laminate that I selected is too expensive. So I have to re-select a cheaper laminate. My ID guy suggested a black laminate with the same brushed finish and a "midnight" black solid top. What do you guys think? Stay with silver or change to black?

Original Option: Silver Laminate

New Option: Black Laminate

I think the silver looks much better. :)

Thanks Angel. I like the silver option too. However, the silver laminate is in the $168 range while the black laminate is in the $38 range. I'll have to look for a cheaper silver alternative or have to spend more.

Beginning of Week 2:

The debris has been cleared on the first floor. The kitchen/dining area space is huge :thumbs up:

Most of the cement work is done. We'll start to dry lay the bathroom tiles on Friday so they can start the tile work next week.
