Kevin,
There was a long crack from the casement windows down to the second last tile from the floor. Somemore my contractor uncle said that will have leakage when raining. As my flat is from the YS site, the flat has been there for more than 5 years liao so impossible to find back teh same tiles. Even if the tiles are teh same, the colour and tone would have differ (because of the many years "exposure"). So they have to change everything for me. =)
Contractor is my aunt (my father's sis) & uncle company. After shopping around, they are the only one who can promise that I can have my place done up a week after Chinese New Year (need to move in as customary is in March). Somemore because related will have some discount =P. Moreover, they have been in the business for many years liao with a loyal group of customers who kept going back to them and I have personally seen their finished products (my grandmother, my current place and all my aunts did their renovation with them). Hee...
