Daily UPDATES

Day 3

20121127_222522.jpg

Didnt took much photos, but was glad to see all debris was cleared out of the house..... So assuming they should be starting the tiles work soon.....

As we have not done the measurement of the kitchen cabinet, because my ID told me that it can only be done without the existing cabinet.....

Actually I think we update my ID with the progress of the renovation via Whatsapp more than he update us.... biggrin.gif

I thought I'm the only thinking so - "we update more than the ID updates us".... Maybe house owner always more "gan chiong" than the ID, coz eventually we are the one going to live in it anyway. Hmm, certainly hope for a pro-active ID, but I bet most are like that? Going to give up complaining and just try to manage him if don't manage properly :-P

Nice washroom accessories you've picked. This is from Hoe Kee is not mistaken??

I like those towel bar which looks a bit squarish also, so modern looking. Actually it's not boring at all, sometimes choosing washroom accessories can be fun looking at the nice nice design...

Is there any difference for choosing washroom in chrome plated vs stainless steel? Any benefits over each others e.g. not so easily rust??

Hi hi

to correct, thats actually glass shelve.... not towel bar, but I think I saw towel bar of the series... It really beautiful....

I choose the accessories bcos I like the chrome feel on my white tiles, I didnt really think of whether it last anot.... biggrin.gif

all new owners will share the same thoughts,

"we update more than the ID updates us" - bcos my ID stays in Jurong and we stay near to the new house (5mins drive away)

and I open the Whatsapp chat group, easier for him too....

It was almost 2 weeks since my last update,

the whole of last week was so unproductive.....

Monday - no workers

Tuesday - Plumbing (installing of bathroom accessories)

Wednesday - no workers

Thursday - Electrician came & left in the morning (only wiring was done upon evening)

Friday - Electrical work (only wiring, 17 LED bulbs were installed without covers and also in wrong orders..... (PS. LED lightings were SPONSORED by my ID)

And when the carpenter came up for 2nd measurement on last Tuesday and we only finalized on Friday.....

And my ID told me that they wont be able to complete my kitchen on the completion date promised.....

I understand that there were many renovation going on everywhere..... I also understand my ID have give in alot to our nonsense....

When we asked the electrician about the missing circuit board cover, we were told to approach HDB instead....unsure.gif

Anyone can advise on how to maintain the shine on my tiles?

As ID claimed that the cleaning process is only sweep n mop my living room tiles(old tiles), is it really like that???

Cleanup are supposed to be done upon my bedframe n mattress arrival on wed

BUT... Guess what, they only cleared up all the stuff yesterday (sun)

and ID promised to do whole house cleaning early this morning so i can do my altar table tomorrow and my customary bed setting on Wed

BUT again, it was delayed till this evening.... the reason is they missed out my slot

Wow your FIL is a carpenter? How did he overlay the TV console to white? It's very nice. How much does it cost for the laminate for overlay? Was told by contractor that the cost of overlaying TV console is the same as getting a new TV console? Hmm....think it's not true hor cos by doing a new one he will earn more....

hi Sherting, the overlay will be much more cheaper than getting a new console, but it very much depends on the worksmanship, as it was done my my FIL, so its FOC
