The PVC pipe in the MBR toilet was repainted to a darker gloss blue making it contrast from the tiles. I kind of like contrast effects

Today didn't went up to my new house to see. Coz went down to Jalan Besar area to buy the hanging pole for bathing towels and facial towels. Went to quite a few area to find previously but cannot find the length i want. I need 2 x 48" pole for bathing towels, as well as 2 x 24" pole for facial towel. the design was plain but it served the purpose. The 48" pole cost $20 each, while the 24" pole cost $12 each.

Finally found it at one of the shop at Jalan Besar area. Next on the list was glass shelving. wanted a 24" x 5" glass shelf. Finally found it at jalan besar area. bought the holder from 1 shop. a pair of it cost $8.50 each. The glass shelf cost $8 each.

Now need to find clothes hangar liao. Need several sizes of the same design, so have to went hunting again lor. Will be fitting all these myself, as it was too late for my contractor to fixed it up liao. no choice, was quite busy lately that i dun have the time to go around hunting for the above stuffs recently, but its ok, fixing it myself is fun also. :)

Hey eR1c, your bathroom is very nice now. Simple & clean design so cleaning time will be much easier. Nice contrast in color.

hi eric,

Your reno is pretty fast,but,

I think you should check your defects carefully....

$40,500 is quite alot of money for what your contractor done for you.

Yup, my reno is fast. 5 weeks in total. :unsure:

Went thru the house today. found some defects but are just minor defects.

The detail breakdown is at the first page of my t-blog.

Actually, went to a few renovation company and his was the cheapest. And i have seen their workmanship before and it was good. Considering the things that i did and the amount that i paid, it is actually quite cheap. And their level of professionalism as well as efficiency is good too.
