  • Hi iSoh, Please check your pm

A pleasant and pretty young lady who took down our requirements carefully and gave a relatively accurate quote. She did her best to revise the quote to meet our requirements. Quote was attractive compared to other ID companies. Almost shortlisted. *REMOVED LINK*

PROGRESS UPDATE

No renovation is without some hiccups. This is something to be expected.....

The workers accidentally threw away the bathroom windows which was dismantled in order to install the aircon compressor. A few days later they threw away the KDK ventilator we bought for installation in the toilet. Again Nic and CF were quick to apologize and bear the cost. CF drove all the way to buy the exact model of ventilator the very next day. Although, this could have delayed the renovation, I'm happy to have responsible IDs :good:

Its always painful to see such things happen to your shiny grohe. Again this is to be expected. CF has kindly agreed to do the cleaning up by himself.

One thing that we have not been happy throughout the renovation was that corrugated paper was not properly lain to protect our tiles. Our IDs reassured us that, if the tiles are damaged in any way, they will replace them for us. I suppose its good that we chose more rustic looking tiles....

Dear Harriette,

Thank you :)

We havent shifted to our new place yet, so I didnt get to test the heater properly. But so far i'm happy with it. I am planning to write a review of all the items we purchased after moving in :)

Love the tiles! I remembered you were saying that you guys were contemplating vinyl/laminates. Can i check if these are vinyl or homogeneous tiles? If homo tiles, are the grout lines manageable? Can pm me how much your id quote you for cement screed + tiles/vinyl seperately? Thanks!
