Pardon my ignorance, what is this for?

i have checked with my renovator, and he told me that this is to made sure that the tiles dun move up due to any temperature change and made sure the tiles are flat and level.

of course my renovator play the big important role also...

he planned a schedule and had everything move according to schedule.

even if there is some problems, other works will still continue.

This is the soft close device that is installed in all my door cabinets, as well as the BIW which have doors. This help to close the doors slowly and prevent the loud bang. Very useful.

Well, my kitchen cabinets is without any handles, and looks more simple. My mum was commenting that there is no design and looks plain. Very easy works for the carpenters. But i like plain and simple design. i find that it looks more uniform and soothings. :bleah:

The window grilles are installed, Lucily i was there, coz the living room, balcony and the MBR grilles are made wrongly. For living room, i wanted 3 tracks and 6 panels, but they made 2 tracks and 6 panels. The balcony and MBR was 2 tracks and 3 panels, instead of the 3 tracks and 3 panels that i wanted. Called my renovator and thye didn't installed the 3 wrong grille. They will come another day to install the correct grilles.
