beany0811 1 Report post Posted September 4, 2009 Fwah ! Sweeee ! Must be very costly right those teak furniture ? thanks forkie we like the furniture very much too. teak is costlier than some materials used in furniture, but got it cos we like the feel of it, and it matches the theme both of us like, and r trying to create. customization of such teakwood furniture in singapore with the dimensions we want would have been must costlier, esp with the hubby's request to have strong, sturdy and tough looking legs for his dining table and sofas. so... both of us feel its money well-spent!

You guys really love teak furnitures. Almost everything in teak. hee.. The shoe cabinet feature wall also seems to match the teak furniture colour too. Hee.. My carpentry will be up next week and will be polishing the mbr floor first as we are using pole system for our wiw area. Very worried about deep scratches during carpentry. My hb will be there to monitor but still cant help to worry. By the way, where's the scratch? Are they at those very 'eye-catching' place? Maybe see if can put something over it to cover. A teak furniture/ rag / carpet etc... Hope your id can come up with some good resolutions for your side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hope your id can come up with some good resolutions for your side. hey rasp, scratches below... these r just a few of the many around, haiz. those in the mbr and spare room are really... 心痛。we'll take pics of them later when we go n continue our cleaning project. scratches which can be removed by polishing r only hairline ones... anything deeper than that... they're here to stay. the marble guys who were up did try to remove some, painstakingly used sandpaper to grind, then the machine to buff the floor, but it didn't work. so these white glaring streaks across our tiles... they're going to share our space permanently. welcome to bishan Edited September 5, 2009 by beany0811 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

beany0811 1 Report post Posted September 5, 2009 (edited) beany, could you place some furniture there to cover it? at least wont feel so heart pain... hi moomoo, yeah, some, or rather two-thirds of the scratches, we should be able to cover them up with the furniture and stuff, except those in the mbr, haha. such an irony rite? granted, the quality of the marble might not have been the best to begin with, previous owners would have caused a reasonable amt of chinks to it too; but our gripe is tt proper care wasn't due the marble during reno. the pic below r fm the 1st day... the hacked stuff were strewn all over the marble flooring... *faint* we have already brought this point up to our ID; let's see what he will suggest... maybe taking out the cost of the marble polishing fm the quote? mbr hacking... the WC on the naked marble flooring... where's my floor protection??
