Second Renovation

Featured Replies

After consulting FSM Chang, decided to do a renovation to implement his recommendations. I have learnt several lessons from my previous renovation which was done in 2005 and hopefully this one will turn out better. I am currently renovating my kitchen and MBR and using a new ID. I have not have time to download my pictures and hopefully can find my cable for my camera when I have the time. Though not renovating the whole house but still a lot of work has gone into preparation. I went to gather 4 (or was it 5?) quotes, very unlike the first time round when I went for the very first quote I've gotten as I was pressed for time. One of the bedrooms has turned into a storeroom.

Renovation started on 14 June and hacking was completed within 3 days. Kitchen floor done up, extension of MBR done and tilting of main door almost done. Will update with pictures soon, I hope. LOL!
