We arrived at the block about 9.30am to see our carpentry delivered and stored at a corner of the void deck! It was packed very compactly and neatly. Heard from my neighbour who has shifted in that he saw it being unloaded at about 7.10am in the morning!

The workers arrived at about 10.30am and soon got to work. 4 of them.

This is the kitchen cabinet at the breakfast/bar counter side. We're using excel drawers for the whole house and blum hinges and blum aventos for the dish rack.

The whole house will be in a different look once the carpentry is up.

Hope to see more updates once they are done

Day 2 of carpentry work after citygas came to run the gas pipe in the morning..

20140520_151632_Android_zps3eaaa854.jpg

Slight cockup as the gas outlet ended a little short of mark. Will be rectified tomorrow..causing a delay as one side of the kitchen carpentry cannot be installed today for kompacplus to be measured..

20140520_151622_Android_zps8dace322.jpg

The other side of the kitchen cabinets are up...

20140520_093318_Android_zps532e1e11.jpg

yup, no cement base for kitchen as we will never wash the floors. It will just be supported by legs like those Ikea kitchen cabinets

Hi, is your corridor track light using led? What's the walt you used?

Thanks!

We've began installing some of the lights, others will need to wait for carpentry to come up.

IKEA's mini tracklight at the main entrance. Wifey feels that the "track" should be rotated 90deg to look better, what do you think?

Yes, all lights are LED except the Tom Dixon Lamps and some T5 tubes later on. If I remember correctly, its 3w each.

Checked with the carpenter at the end of the day if they can finish everything tomorrow. He shook his head and replied, "Either Monday or Tuesday then can complete". Schedule is really tight now and I'm not sure if Kompacplus can meet the schedule as they have yet to fix an appointment to do the measurements. After which, they require about 1 week lead time. Problem is, I'm moving in next Sunday! without the Kompacplus, the toilet sinks/taps and kitchen sinks/taps can't be installed. I would have to use water from shower only -_-

Hi Harocarlos,

Fellow Ancillian here. :) Looks like your reno is going well! Great looking place. I am curious about what type of heater you use and how you manage to hide it since the outlet/inlets are quite low. Thanks in advance!
