stardust205 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2011 Same here !! Our hse ex-owner has the rock stone effect for the whole hse, including all ceilings. Me and WTB can't stand it, esp me No choice, had to spend extra $ to plaster the whole house..Just spoken to my ID just now regarding about plastering the walls and ceiling for my entire unit..... It wasn't in my previous quote. My wife and I just cannot stand the current rock stone effect..... It only means we now need to spend more $$$ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Someone told me it helps to keep the lizards away. Initially i wanted to keep it to cut cost.... But my wife kept pestering me b'cos she cannot sleep if she sees the rockstone. I wonder how much it cost to plaster all the walls and ceiling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
potatoes 0 Report post Posted July 11, 2011 I like your "Toilet 3" tiles!Toilet #3 is very unique as it is on the 1st floor. It is also the smallest toilet with only a WC and a water spray pipe in it. The wall is going to be only half tiled ..... One of my cost cutting measure. I chose the tile different from the other 2 toilets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adidaem 6 Report post Posted July 11, 2011 Hi Potatoes, the stools seem to block the kitchen entrance. Or is it a perspective thing? Perhaps you can enlarge the kitchen entrance by hacking away a bit of the wall? The Bar counter after the wall that divides the kitchen and the dining is hacked off.

Perhaps you can enlarge the kitchen entrance by hacking away a bit of the wall?Thanks for highlighting this. There should still sufficient space to walk thru' . I didnt want to hack the other part of the wall because of cost. The part of the wall will be used to put the fridge.

potatoes 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2011 (edited) I went down last night to Mayer to put up order for chimney cooker hood, 3 burner hob, buitt in oven and dish washer. The chimney hood looks good and I like the soft touch and LEDs lighting. Edited July 13, 2011 by potatoes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
