pinkwhale 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2011 Happy New Year Everyone!!! Hope everyone have a great new year celebration and best wishes to all.But sadly I'm sick and got to hide at home, what a 2011 ending for me. Hope the start of tomorrow is a better ahead for me.Some updates:Aircon pipes installation was completed yesterday. I had bought the Starmex inverter system 3 with configuration of 24+18+9 for living room, MBR and common room respectively. Got it from Imperial Distributor (Aron Putt) 2 workers came at 11am and they started work physically at around 12.30pm and end at 9.30pm.Contractor and myself stayed all the way till 9.30pm in order to lock up. I was really lucky that my contractor actually waited together with me and even sent me home after such a long day. I appreciate! Actually he could have just leave, since I'm there.G22 Copper pipeInsulation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pinkwhale 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2011 Though its new year eve but work was still on going at my new place. Since air con pipe was up last nite, contractor arranged for the box up to be done today. I arrived at around 11am and part of the box up was already doneLiving Room Aircon pipe box up already done before I arrivedCommon Room - Wont be doing box up for this room, since we are not doing up this room.MBR - this area got the worse trucking as all the 3 unit pipes will run into the MBR toiletActually when i saw how they box up the MBR trucking, I was very worried. They actually drilled into the trucking to secure the boxup, I wonder will they punctured the pipes and cause problem later. But its already half way done when I arrive Is this how they usually do box up? Hope really won't have problems later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pinkwhale 0 Report post Posted January 7, 2012 (edited) From the moment I decided to do the 5cm X 5cm mosaic tile kitchen countertop, I was thinking of grey grout lines for a easier maintenance but today I was convinced by my contractor as well as the tiler to use white cement instead. Can't resist the white lines contrast again the black tiles so I accepted the fate of doing lots of cleaning and maybe DIY grouting after the move in Edited February 11, 2012 by pinkwhale Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
