Friday itself, there were ard 10 workers working at the same time.......

TEN workers?!?!? Heh, that's a lot. No wonder I was in for such a pleasant surprised when I dropped by on Friday. Haven't been able to go up to the house much during the day (finish wotk at 6pm, rush there 7pm - already dark outside ) So much had been done!

- Kitchen partition walls - DONE

- Wall tiles for Common Bathroom - DONE

- Kitchen wall tiles - almost 100% DONE

- Waterproofing for bathrooms - DONE

- False ceiling @ Living room - DONE

Kitchen partition walls up.......yes...don't need to guess...we r doing highly dangerous work here...that why wearing helmet..

Citygas was also here to install the gas piping...

Yeah! We both thought City Gas was coming later. Hmmm....The 'highly dangerous' work requires workmen to wear a motorcycle helmet?

The last minute design in MBR Bathroom was also slowly taking shape. Heh heh. Can't wait to see the tiles go up! Think this the area I'm most excited about, thanks to some creative design thinking by Jaskel

Oh, we dropped by on Sat also. There was one lonely working pouring water into the bathrooms to check the water proofing:

As we were leaving, he was using a big brush to brush liquid cement onto the ktichen floor - that's the water proofing for the kitchen?

Love the F1 Pace Jaskel - GO GO GO!!! Keep posting pix also! I look forward to seeing them, esp since I don't get to drop by so often in the day.

Oh, and do remind the workers to help themselves to the water, H20 isotonic drinks and biscuits we bought for them. I told the guy we saw on Sat about it - he seemed very paiseh to take.

Good! Set! Deal! Worth paying for

Hahah. I love that show. Not only does the home get a makeover, the family gets to go on a vacation while the house is being done.

Hmm, don't think 10 workers is the norm - probably a once-off b'coz there were a few things going on at the same time.

"I feel the need... the need for speed..."

Water proofing for this particular part of the wall

normally is 300mm right? but in this instance you water-proofed my entire wall

becoz mine is hot on your heels... :P

faster faster

F1 speed is fine...but not at the expense of QC

Normally is 150mm.....but no choice for your case.

Hahaha...helmet.....time to go home liao....citygas came ard 5pm...quite late that day.

Water proofing is ok...no leakage to your neighbour below.....

Yap...either they use brush or roller to do water proofing. Our practice is doing it before going home cos next day it will dry up, so no time is wasted while waiting it to dry if doing it during the day.

F1 speed is fine...but not at the expense of QC

Don't worry about QCing....better to hear from the other forumers that I had completed their reno on the end product rather than I saying how good it is...cos I'm still the contractor...owners feedback is 1000 times better than I said it myself.

ya! so far so good, you can be the new Mark Webber

but having said that sub-con are also human so there will always be error, what is important is the response & how the issue is rectified. so far its far from good...it has been excellent...keep it up my friend!

also not forgetting the VA you have included along the way...that can only show at the end...good things must reveal at finale

Ooooh.. step down in common bath and MBR bath done.. Kitchen and common bath tiles are looking nice. Must say thanks to Jaskel for explaining Tiling 101 to us. Heh heh.

I spy a mortar base - the beginnings of my kitchen cabinets, where the hubby and I are going to cook up a storm. Awesome! Going to see laminate samples this weekend.. after that it's GO GO GO for carpentry!
