    too excited that you are going to do another reno until cannot sleep? hahahaha...... try something totally different from your current unit lah.... or do something that you wanted to do and never did

I am not sure, maybe around 2m? The whole height is 2.5m so considering the false ceiling as 50cm, then left 2m.

Why? You are doing something like this too?

oh no no, doubt i am doing something like yours.

Just thought got height requirement of 2.4m floor to ceiling that hdb wanted?? I want to do raised laminate but my ceiling-floor is 2.44m. That means my raised laminate is 4cm high which is kinda too little.

My false ceiling is not all over. You can see that it's just 900mm x 1500mm. The rest of the area are still normal ceiling. Don't think they will say anything is just only a part of it.

For raised platform, it's depends whether it's next to windows. It's for safety reasons.

RENOVATION DAY 30 : ACID WASH + GRILLES

Now that my reno is coming to an end, i feel very excited to move in. But when i think of all the packing i have to do, i feel so lazy. But thank God, this will be the last time i will move for a long long time. Hopefully no en bloc to my block until a long long time more.... maybe in 20-30 years time? hahaahaha....

But i am sure of 1 thing, i will do reno again after few years. Not because this time was not done well but rather, to save money, i have done some stuff as a temporary measure.

hmmm if you reno again after a few years, then you'll have to pack again, rite? :lol:

One question, will the acid wash damage the homogeneous tiles? Dunno read from which reno blog talking about this... Just wanna verify whether it is true especially on the polished homogeneous tiles..

Cheers:) Emobebe

Hey May, feel really happy & relieved for you that the reno is going to be over and you can finally have your own HOME-SWEET-HOME in 3 more days! :yamseng::dancingqueen:

But you better rest enough & eat regularly ah...also must take extra care of your sensitive nose lor... Me & my hubby also got super sensitive nose hence I can fully empathise your misery :(

Hope you have resolved the MBR bathroom seater issue?
