ok, look forward to seeing your red silver kitchen.

The featured wall was my hubby's idea. Mother Mary statue also bought by him as he had a 'calling' one day and suddenly just drove to Novena and bought it. I'm attending Nativity which is just opposite my place. Very near to the church right? But not direct facing. Our balcony is facing the church open field.

For wall tiles can paint over using Eboxy paint which i am planning to do so and contractor say dun worry about stain or dirt cos they use chemical to wash.

For cabinet if the structure is still good and solid then u can just change the all the door abd color cos the structure is the most expensive.Mine i hack away cos very old and the structure beyond usage as the previous owner cook every meal.

For balcony wise i am leaving it as it is cos the tiles still looks solid and nice.

Depend on ur budget if not useable then change tats wat my contractor tells me.

U took any photo?

The cabinet are those made of tiles with black /dark sliding door. Inside the shelving are made of wood. can take out the whole shleving and inside is empty.

I went to the upload pciture site, got tons of popup. am afraid got virus.

hmmm...if its made of tiles and finished with wooden cabinets then u might wanna consider keeping the tiles and just re-do the cabinet doors and internal wooden shelvings if the tiles are still good. I did the tiles with cabinets for stove and sink area for my old house. Really save alot.

thanks. Its galvanised wrought iron...err dunno how much liao. Whole house grilles done up with wrought iron cos I super kiasi as staying in corridor unit. More ex than normal grilles.

thanks for your instruction for uploading

how much is it to redo internal shleving? you see i need to redo the tiles at the washing basin (broken already got a hole) so my contractor is afraid that he will damage the "new" grey colour ones. the grey colour ones are about ten years old

oops...that staircase - parquet alone already $3k+, glass railings - dunno but dont think it's cheap.

glass railing very ex. I think prettibride did it but i think she no longer active in renotalk. I kept my original railings from HDB.

some design ideas

Edited by hello88

I also keep my original railing cos if redo will cost 3k-4k for just the staircase alone then u might as well do a new cabinet.

Just change the door and internal can already then do up the top.Urs better alot than mine.

ya, the condition is so much better. The ones left behind by my seller can really make u puke

hey, is it true that such cabinets are done up by HDB 20 yrs ago? My seller had this and some of the neighbouring units still with 1st owner also had the same cabinets.
