Hi neighbor!

How's Mr K so far?

Can you PM me his contact?

We are still looking out for IDs and contractor for our little home in the waves...

Looking forward to the updates on your reno.

Thanks!

welcome to RT, all the best in your reno. post more pictures to show us your progress so we can learn from each other.

We too, but in-law is pantang. Totally can't renovate during this period.

Some say can start before the month and renovate thru but they think otherwise, so gotta delay...

Grace, finally you have started on your reno. Looking forward to seeing more pics and your reno journey. Have followed this thread.

Some progress after a week of renovation (as of 17 August):

Living room - False ceiling and partition done. Next up, our craftstone wall *excited*

Corridor - false ceiling also done.

Kitchen - Not sure if I'm correct, but this should be the cement skirting for my kitchen cabinets? Anyway, we like how Mr K matched the grout of the cement skirting with the floor tiles.

Service Yard - Preparing to overlay tiles for our dirty washing area

Common & Master Bedroom Toilet - Overlaying of tiles

Nice. You knocked down your wall separating kitchen and dining room?

Your air con not done?

This is the elevated base for your bottom kitchen cabinets. You either have a choice to suspend the cabinets, or to do it this way if you want the thing to sit on the floor. The base allows you to wash the floor without it wetting the wooden cabinets.

Yup! Wanted (what looks like a) bigger space for my dining area..

Air-Con not done yet. Hopefully it will be up this week.

I see. Thanks ucypmas!

Nice updates! Looking forward to see your brick wall....

The last time I went to our house was last saturday, and our living room was still bare.

This afternoon, I was pleasantly surprised to see this!

Woohoo! So happy and excited! Contractor said that it would be done by Wednesday.
