i am wondering why contractors still use those non anti fungal silicon at these watery areas.

so troublesome to ask ppl to come redo after some time of staying in the flat.

i planning to ask another contractor to one shot come up fix all those broken down places.

fed up to do one by one, they seem to take turn give me problems.

think cost is an issue. a normal tube of silicon cost $3+

i think they made more than just a few bucks to pay for these silicons.

should have used these anti fungal silicon instead.

they cut cost = owners suffer

now i realise my glass door is slanted, many grout lines not filled, carpentry silicon breaking up and not holding anymore....etc

PEK CHEK :curse:

Grout lines if unpatched will "grow" more n more one… perhaps if the house is still new one gets anal wif it, but after sometime things get not so new, will tend to boh chup liao…

seriously i do not believe in any of his service anymore. promise a lot but in the end still same.

no point get him and argue, then give me another lousy job for me to headache after few months.

oh, so sorry .. had not been following yr blog so the missing links .. but you are right. better get it done nicely once and for all. Otherwise can really spoil the mood

fed-up right? pay money then get this kind of quality.

yah that time already make them repaint 2 times liao.

now peel again. super lousy workmanship.

i remember someone mention about not using matex white paint somewhere in this forum.

come to think of it i saw a lot of this paint during reno period.

before pay money say all paint price diff not much so will give the best one.

and we chose the paint ourselves.

now i realise i kena dupe liao. swap the suppose best one for the lousiest one since i did not realise in time.

recently i heard my kitchen glass door making weird sound when closing..... lets just hope this will not become another defect.

I OFFICIALLY DON'T RECOMMEND THIS CONTACTOR I USED

nah it's ok. i only got myself to blame when i thought since this contractor i got from forum, so he wouldn't anyhow do cos he depends on forum for advertisement. seems to be the exact opposite.

btw, how is your place? move in liao?
