Hi Alex
Yah lor very dark hor. We actually hacked away 1/2 the wall for BR2 and put glass. It will be the study in the future. After hacking looks brighter, so not that bad now
Aiyoh, middle of the night got train??!! Die lah, I'm a very light sleeper... cham lah...
Lucky FH sleeps like a pig.... so poor me lor.... hopefully can get used to it....
Hi AhMel
Don't know leh, HDB asked us to get the key exactly 1 mth after the WIS (We got ours on the 1st day, FH went down the night that the announcement was made to get Q no. we so KS hor
). We already got the contractor before we got the keys. It's recommended by HDBay. after going around to like 4 others (HDBay and non HDBay), we thought that we can click with the ID, price is reasonable (tho' not the cheapest), liked the workmanship and design of the showflats that he brought us to. So far quite satisfied with the work. Floor, false ceiling, electrical, hacking of walls all completed liao (1.5 wks only leh, we didn't even rush him, asked him to take his time). So far workmanship is very good. just require them to do some minor touchups and alterations. Do you want to pop by to see the reno?
I'm at very high floor, but still blocked leh... But we thought although blocked, but still must get high floor, at least can see the sky

Hi Adam,
Yup very lively nowadays. Come in more often lar..
Hi Dora,
Need not worry. Can get use to it within a few days. Furthermore high floor is very windy. Recently can even hear the wind sound at night. Sometimes very cold too. Me also from high floor. Very frankly speaking I have turn on the air-con for less than 20x since I move in last year Oct. Only on it more often during April period because very hot season. Dun worry lah…
Urrr… Maybe I also sleep like pig lor…

Alex,
My electrical has started already. Joseph has already apply the permit but i didn't see him paste it outside our unit leh. Funny
Very upset, the workers threw away my pencil which i left it there a day before.
Dora,
You'll get use to it very soon. If i work night shift at my office and when i get to sleep, me too can hear the sound of the train. But it'll pass away very fast one lah. Somemore my office is about 10m from the tracks and its on the 4th level. If you turn on the air-con, i think the sound will be softer too.
Tane and Jean,
Me staying at 683C, should be very close to the 2 of you.

Hi Meow,
Maybe check with him lor… As for electrical work, painting, aircon installation no need permit. Except for wet work, wall or tiles hacking, Window Grill installation and etc etc….
Please remember Joseph will apply the permit base on the initial drawing plan. If during half way of the renovation you decided to have additional work, remember to ask him to apply for it again. During my time I have add on additional water feature wall which did not apply for the permit was penalise by HDB during one of the inspection upon 3 months completion of my reno. Luckily they give us chance by re-applying again with back dated application. Another thing to take note must always leave 1 of the ventilation hole from the Boom Shelter accessible. Otherwise will be penalise liao.
If happen that you need to monitor some “critical work” on that day, remember to buy the workers some drinks hor… otherwise they might feel pressure than quality urrr…… PR mah… ha haa haa…
For pencil urrr… no choices leh… Very common everywhere

Alex,
what are the critical works? Think he needs to resubmit the permit again as i'm going to change something. What's that sheet of paper call whenever he comes down he will sign on it and we know he did come down?
Ah Mel, Me jus started reno. So nothing for you to see yet. If you want, i can show you some other time. But you must remind me leh

Hi Jean,
Welcome! Happy to see one more person joining in
Hi Alex,
Thanks for updating the list. Hmm...seems that blk 691B is currently top of the list (in terms of no. of occupants in this forum) .
Just curious, were there any gatherings or meet-me-meet-you kind of sessions or activities been organised ? eg. Moon festival, Xmas party, CNY visits etc.

Hi Meow,
For me i define it as wet work. Laying of the tiles. Usually the will lay the tile with reference to the main door.
If KS a bit, than consider to see the painting on 2nd or 3 rd day. Not sure what kind of paint you use, but for certain paint once dried up if need to touch up, you will see patches. Therefore need to re-paint the whole wall. It is better to check before or just after completion of painting than still able to touch up nicely.
Installation of accessories (Toilet and Kitchen) or pictures or rack if there is any. They need to know which is your prefer position.
I think you are referring to the schedule sheet. It stated the milestone and progress of the reno schedule which he can sign on it lor.
For permit thing, better check with him again. I think anything regarding wet work, and hacking etc etc.. need to reapply if there are changes and additional work.
Hi Ahmel,
There was once, Angelia tried to organise but postpone. Maybe will have one in future.

Are you there??

Hi Meow,
Huh… you mean you will use different source for painting? My personal feeling is that there might be potential problem. First of all after your aircon piping, cornices, hacking of walls, and electrical work will be painting (which is before wet work if I could remember correctly). If during wet work or carpentry work that dirty your paint work than how? Will your painter come in to touch up for FOC or worst case touch up than stain onto your floor/carpentry?
. This is only my personal feeling hor, please no offences.
There are certain sequences of work to be done. Certain work can jump schedule but certain work have to be done first. Maybe you would like to chk with him first.

My ID is Colorado Deco. Its from HDBay. They may be slightly more expensive than the non-HDBay ones ( esp in terms of carpentery). But the workmanship for the tiles is really good, gap is very narrow. (Well I only have the tiles in so far, so that's all I can comment for now). The ID can be a little pushy sometimes, but as long as you know what you want, and let him know, he's ok lah, quite chin chye type. But he hates people who are very calculative type. So if you look like you are chin chye, then he'll be chin chye also. The thing I like abt this guy is he's experienced and he go down to the sites to inspect personally. A lot of my friends have IDs who really only do design. never go down to the site, leave it to the site supervisor whom you have never communicated with.
And also, remember to BARGAIN. Must be real thick skin (its the same for all the IDs that I've been to)
Just to share my quote:
1)Homogenous tiles for living/dining/bombshelter
2)Ceramic tiles for kitchen
3)1/2 length parapet wall for kitchen
4)base for washer/fridge
5)shower kerb for both toilets
6)frameless glass shower screen in MBR toilet
7)false ceiling/L box for Living/Dining/MBR/foyer
8)32 ft (top & bottom)kitchen cabinet (incl sink, cooker and hood) with granite top.
9)feature wall for Bombshelter (incl display shelf)
10)divider cum shoecabinet
11)8 ft wardrobe (sliding door with 1/3 glass)
12)2 bedside table (1 side extend to become dresser, a bit hard to explain here)
13)hack 1/2 height for 2 walls of a bedroom and install glass.
14)Vanity top, top and bottom cabinet (including full mirror and glass shelves) for MBR toilet
15)Laminated floor for 3 BR
16)Change to copper pipes
17)Painting
18)Install bathroom acc and heater.
19)corner TV console for MBR
FH wanted a slim fishtank with wood trimming (The stylo kind, saw it for $500 at marina sq *faint*). He gave us FOC.
This is all I can remember off hand. Contract with FH. Total is almost $28K. We took out the fridge and air-con that was in the original contract.
Doesn't include electricals. Ours worked out to be $1700 cos we have so many downlights (FH simply loves them, so bo bian) Think all IDs don't incl electricals, so you have to budget for that too. If you have a lot of downlights like us, then it would be around this figure. (seriously, we think we have been slightly overcharged for the electricals, will try to bargain for other stuff )
Hope I've been some help.

Hi AhMel,
Baroque was quite ok...but they quoted me bery expensive wor....the walk-in-wardrobe they quoted me was 4k+ and feature wall as arnd 2.4k i think. For Everlink, they quoted me 3.6k for walk-in-wardrobe and 2k for feature wall....thats why i don't really think Baroque is very gd...prob i should ask what kind of wood they using.
Hi Dora,
Your quotation seems quite reasonable lehz...but do they include the haulage n debris removal charges into the quotation?

Hi Dora,
Your quotation looks good , somemore give u the fishtank FOC. Actually I've also set my eyes on this during recent SmartHome expo , very nice, told my wife I must have it in our new home
Which ID (staff) u work with ? I talked to someone named George in the expo, and they throw many things in their basic package - fridge, aircon, kitchen sink, hood, cooker ...
Can I take a look at your detail list ? Wanna know like what materials used etc .

Hi AhBlur and AhMel
My ID is Johnson Wang. Tel 90271328 (Colorado Deco). Tell him you are introduced by Mr Kuan (My FH) from CCK. He is actually the manager there and he got quite a few men under him. Maybe cos he's the manager, I find that it's easier for us to negotiate things with him as compared to other ID companies where we were served by the co-ordinators/ designers. He promised to give my friends discounts
I also introduced my collegue. I wouldn't say he gave him an extremely good discount, but he throw in other things like granite kitchen top for the price of solid surface, etc...
Maybe you guys can give him a call and get him to quote you? Looking at my quote is not that accurate cos things I want is not what you want, and the price can differ a lot sometimes. No obligations anyway. (**he can be a bit pushy, so you guys/gals make sure that you are really happy with him before you sign up**) Also helps to compare with other IDs.
FYI, he quoted me abt $1500 for the feature wall at the bombshelter, incl the display "holes". Initially he said $1500 can do any designs except the "holes", but later we say chin chye lah, so he also chin chye lor
So bottom line - must be thick skinned

Hi tane,
2yrs++ ah.....but funny, cos i signed the title deed the lease starts from July 2002, so means its only 1 yr flat? A bit confused over these things also. So does tat mean in future when we sell the flat it will bring the price down?
And i never smell any chicken smell lehz? At CCK MRT that area i smell b4, but not at Crescent...hmmzz...mabbe i've only been there a few times so havent smelled it b4
Hi Dora,
Wow...ur feature wall only cost 1.5kwith display holes? Thats very cheap already. Everlink quoted me arnd 2k for feature wall with racks inside to put things (but not the display type) and Baroque quoted me 2.4k for the feature wall...*Faint*...guess i should make a trip down to ur ID to check it out
2yrs++ ah.....but funny, cos i signed the title deed the lease starts from July 2002, so means its only 1 yr flat? A bit confused over these things also. So does tat mean in future when we sell the flat it will bring the price down?
And i never smell any chicken smell lehz? At CCK MRT that area i smell b4, but not at Crescent...hmmzz...mabbe i've only been there a few times so havent smelled it b4

Hi AhBur,
The flat already build more than 2 years ++. Thos brought initially is not from WIS.
As for the deed that we are signing is starts from the day we officially brought the house and not the day where the unit is completed. As what Tane has mentioned since EDB eager to sell off the remaining units, they pull in more effort in marketing such as advertisement and lower down the price. We can see from the recent 2 WIS is that price has been lower dow already.
Remember one of my friend from 692A 16th floor, they are paying S$80k more than our ours, furthermore my unit is far higher than theirs.
No smell too at my block, maybe at higher level can't smell it lor.

Hi Alex,
Funny wor....cos i see my lease that i signed, it indicated July 2002 wor....so if u say it starts from the day we officially bought the hse also not correct lehz...*faint*...a bit confusing, mabbe have to go back and check the deed again. Now i only wondering if i sell after 5 yrs will it affect the price anot....since by that time it would be considered as 7+yrs flat?

Hi
I live at CCK Dr, the highest floor, 20th, also can smell the chicken smell, so I have to close all my windows. can't stand it.... hehehee...
When I moved to Yew Tee, I could not get use to this place because it is not as convenience as in town. Have to take bus 302 in order to go to the market or other places. My transport $ also increase. Last time when I stay in town, everything is convenience. After staying for abt 8 mths, I have already used to it loh.
