Apple1 6 Report post Posted June 7, 2013 Haha cos we have 2 chins ourselves - a male 2 years old and a female 5 months old!How long have you been staying in with the renovation going on? We have stayed a week and everyday, there were new installations and more dust. We have been vacuuming and mopping everyday and it is super duper tiring!We have moved in for 1 month now. But when we first moved in, only the 2 common bedrooms carpentry and the electric work were done. The rest of the carpentry were half done and plumbing not completed (read: leaking sinks). There were workers in the house everyday. Dusts and dirt everywhere. Hahaha... ya, I sweep, wash, clean, mop.... never ending work. For us, we have existing furniture from the previous house so it was a nightmare when those furnitures had dust all over (sofas & mattress were the worst). It took another 9 days for all the workers to be out of the house. Now is just some rectification work I find here and there. I understand what you are going thru now. But hang in there, I believe yours are almost done! Better check and check around your place to see any work to be rectify before the worker leave cause it does get frustrating when we need to rush back home from work or places so that we could let the worker in to rectify any work.Ohhh.... I love your ceiling!! I wanted that but I've got to watch my budget lor... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good that my hubby let me made all the decision while he communicated with the workers & contractor and pay the bills Lots of furniture are old stuffs and even hand me downs so gotta work around that too.

Apple1 6 Report post Posted August 12, 2013 Hi, can share how much u overlay the toilet wall ties and floor tiles?ThanksIt depend on the area and the type of tiles you choose. For mine, abstracting from my quotation just for overlay both toilets with wall and floor tiles are $3800. It does not include shower curb, plumbing etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
