Valerie, you have found your contractor? When will your renovation start?

Ayazumi, yes we have someone in mind already. But we have not confirmed with him yet. Waiting to view one of his projects. If everything is fine, hoping to start reno on the week of 12th Apr. Hehe by that time your reno should be ending soon, right?

The permit put end date 16 April, but might take another 1 week for rectification, if there is any to rectify. If everything goes smoothly, we should be moving in in end April.

19 Mar 2012 (Pre-reno)

After meeting 3 contractors, we are more or less quite firm with one of the contractors. Meeting contractors and explaining our requirements all over and over again is really a tiring process (although only 3). More tiring than house hunting i think :P

We are planning to view one of his projects, if everything goes well, we will confirm with him next week! :thumbs up:

In the weekend, we have gone to Hafary and LSH to see see look look. Just to get a rough idea on the tiles selection. We found that the tiles that we love are mainly Italian tiles! Have talked to the contractor and he said he is ok for us to use tiles above 3.80 for certain area. He is quite flexible in this. Happy~

Contractors are usually the most busiest group of people in reno, all if not most of them will not be able to entertain you by bring you around to view their workmanship, that is the job for Interior Designer.

Not sure what he thinks of us. But first he remembered the wrong appt date, then he was late for the meeting, and third he said he is very keen to get this business done, as he still has not got project for April. So he will try his best to get a good price for us. But after that.. no news liao. My hubby also sien liao. Yes I told him you introduced. Anyway, never mind hehe.. Thanks for ur help

Hi all, I need your advice and opinion on my lighting points. :help:

I was thinking to save money and don't do false ceiling/L-box for living room. So I came out with a plan to install track lights in the living area. But I'm not sure what's the best way to place the track lights.

What about option 3? Having pendant light for the dining table, then track lights like in Option 1 with fan and a row of track light near the windows. no need for the other track light near the dining table.

That's a good idea, can save some cost. But just four track lights near the window will it be bright enough? Maybe I am too greedy :P
