Construction Of A Small Home

Recommended Posts

Is the toilet light inside the encased area? The vanity mirror is done by your carpentry? Looks pretty good!

Hi benetay,

Yes, we added T5 lights inside the case to brighten the toilet.

Yup, vanity is done by carpenters. Yup, the workmanship is pretty good. Just in the wrong laminate.

They will be fixed.

:)

Is the T5 light hung onto the pipes?

Hi benetay,

Nope, it's resting on the "waffles" case. There is electrical point inside the case, just need to get your electrician to connect the T5s.

Ah! You mean the T5 light resting on the white egg crate, plastic grid mesh? Wow. I have bad experience with that white thingy because it got brittle after a year or so and have to replace the entire thing. Luckily then it is not use for the toilet encasement area.

Maybe it is just me but i will not accept it to be resting on the white flimsy plastic thing, i would probably fix it to something or hang it from the the pipes or something to secure it. Understand if nobody moves it it will not come down but heat and moisture in the bathroom will degrade that cheap HDB plastic.

T5 is a good light source but i think it can be fix up better, have you ask your contractor to mount/hang/fix it somewhere other than resting on the plastic grid?

if my contractor/ID propose this to me, i'll give them a good look at their experience.

my 2 cts worth.

A little something we added at the 11th hour, confirmed with the ID last week and it's up on Wednesday.

Very pleased, money well spent.

Hello all,

Will you guys know how many times is reasonable for the carpenters to return?

We are asking them to come for the 3rd time as there are rectifications to be done.

Hi Huiqing, I'm getting my place soon and looking for some contacts.

Can share your aircon & electrician contact? Thanks!

By the way, what grey are you using? :D

Hi Leslie,

I have sent you a PM on the contacts.

It's most embarrassing but I am not sure about the colour code of the grey used. We rely on my ID for most stuff, we don't really go into details.

We have been so busy cleaning up and packing out stuff.

The house has not been handed over but it should not be too long till then.

Just minor touch ups. Meanwhile, our living room looks like this now.

Busy busy week for us as the carpentry comes in.

And we have been really busy shopping at Ikea and coordinating all the furniture deliveries.

Carpentry are mostly up but there are some boo-boos as no renovation journey is complete with no hiccups.

Toilets' laminates are supposed to be the same but they somehow turned up different.

The bed is not aligned with the lighting point and the bedside drawer is too low. All these will be fixed and air-con installation is today.

Mistakes aside, the workmanship is good from what we see.

We will be starting our packing soon!

Happy new year all!
