Hi,

Step 1 – Hacking

Step 2 – Wet work

Step 3 – Carpentry work

Step 4 – Electrical work

Step 5 – Air con work

Step 6 - Painting

Tks

Carpentry always come in last, because the electrical and air con pipes might affect the furniture which is going to be install. Painting should be done right after the tiling work. :)

Step 1 – Hacking

Step 2 – Wet work

Step 3 - Painting (part 1)

Step 4 – Aircon trucking & electrical wiring

Step 5 – Painting (part 2 - paint over trucking of casings)

Step 6- Carpentry work

Step 7 - putting up lights & aircon blowers

Step 3 - Painting (part 1)

Does it mean I will need to have my MBR toilet walls and floor tiles laid up first before the piping for the aircon to be done?

yes... (at least, according to my understanding...)

actually, for my place, the aircon trunkings and floorings are done up simultaneously. the tiler will then cut holes to accomodate the air con pipes

oh dear

how come the air-con sales person never told us that. He just told us to book a date. No wonder when the air-con contractor called and said if the tiles are not up yet, they will not be able to install the air-con piping. haiz...the next appointment date available is only on 28th July. By then my MBR laminated flooring and most of the capentary works would have already been done. shuckz!

The tiles are scheduled to be laid on the 12th & 13th of July. :(

tiles take quite a while. so while the tilers are doing up the kitchen wall, the aircon guys came to do up the pipings. thats what happened for mine
