thanks! we love our floors (so far) too! we'll be applying a layer of epoxy coating at the end of the renovation but for now its completely raw and unfinished. texture is smooth..a little dusty if you don't apply any finishing.. but i think its best to apply some sort of protective coating because cement is porous so if you drop any coffee/wine etc, your floors will get stained..

Protective canvas laid in the hall


Protective plastic sheet laid in the master room


Protective cardboard laid in the kitchen. Notice the annoying little pipe has been cut off!


Bathroom kerbs hacked level in preparation for new bathroom

Citygas Gallery (Somerset)

Finally confirmed our water heater + dryer on Saturday morning! Now facing an issue of how to run our gas pipes because we don't have top kitchen cabinets...

Damage:

Water heater: $128 + $60 installation

Dryer: $630 + $100 installation

Gas piping for stove: $100

Total damage: $1,018

A Lighting Enterprise (463 Geylang Road)

Visited on Saturday to confirm our stuff:

- 1m track lighting with 3 track lights (hall) $50

- 2 x down lights (entrance area) $46

- 1 x 4 feet double-tube light (common room) $38

- 1 x ceiling fan with light (hall) $175

Actual damage: $309

Real damage: $290

Alex was mad busy when we were there. He had to cope with so many different groups of customers at the same time...he got my bill wrong and luckily I spotted it and got him to correct it. Then when we got home, I realised another error: he wrote three sets of track lights when I actually only ordered one. Smsed him about it immediately...

Mega Discount Store (Kallang Leisure Park)

Saw their newspaper advertisement for a "Korean brand" washer + "Korean brand" side-by-side refrigerator. Had a feeling it would be the Samsung washer and LG fridge we've had our eyes on. Turned out it was! A lil' disappointed to find out when we got there that the price advertised did not include delivery fee. Bargained with the sales guy to charge us only one time delivery but he refused to budge, saying delivery fee for the fridge was charged by the agent. So ok bo pian, no time to run around the island to find other solutions and we were happy with the prices so went ahead to order:

WF8650 WHITE

Damage:
