not sure if it's the same or not. edmund tried to get 60x60 but was told the tile is only available in 30x60. tmr will be going up again to meet him. see if will have the pebblewash ready or not. :P

i only doing pebblewash for toilet and shower flooring. wanted to do in one corner of the living room for shoe cabinet but edmund say better not waste the original tile. he mentioned the tile is expensive to replace :(

btw, no wall tiles for kitchen wall? plastering ah?

wife don't like tiles on kitchen wall. so most likely will only paint and paste some decal. lol

mcnair road.....it is near balestier ITE... mine is a 4A flat... hence it looks bigger... hee

if it is the same tiles, do be careful... cuz the tiler did mentioned that it can be quite brittle.. our first shipment of the tiles, several of them cracked...

we plastered and painted the kitchen walls only too! regretted not plastering whole flat..... house is too old.. painter had a hard time at my house... the paint kept getting absorbed into the wall..

i see. 4A is slightly over 100sqm?

the tiler did not mention about my tiles being brittle but i noticed got 2 broken tiles lying on the floor. hmm tomorrow will ask the tiler about it.

i thought they will apply sealant if necessary before painting? how many coats of paint did it take to cover completely?

2-3 coats of sealant if i am not wrong... then another 2 coats of emulsion i think..... finally the paint...
