Renovation Day 3

.

We thought the whole aircon piping thingy will end early and that we can go off after they start work but no, we have to sign some acceptance form for them after they finish their work. Our initial plan was to rush over to Kelantan Lane to take a look before they closed at 1pm but when we pick our car at the car park, we couldn't find our off-perk car coupons and so we couldn't drive thus unable to go to Kelantan Lane. Haha... was even in frustration and wondering where the hell the coupons are. (Edited to add: Guess what, we found them at home in the drawer only few days later)

In the end, we took a cab there and saw Gain City contractor unloading the pipes and casing. Kenneth reached slightly later than us and they started to discuss on how to run the pipe. Just want to say, without his help things wouldn't have been so smooth... The contractor seems to be very blur and inexperience and it seems like he is trying to make his job easier by doing short cuts. Well, what amaze us is that he even got difficultly differentiating left and right, perhaps haven wake up yet ?

We sign the acceptance form only around 3.30pm.









































































Renovation Painting Colours

.

We have chosen the painting colours, we really hope the colours will turn out to be OK. As instructed by geomancer, the bedroom colours are pink, purple or peach and so... our rooms are like so vibrant, a big contrast to our black/white living room =P

Oh ya, the ugly parquet skirting in our living room will be painted to black and our living room main door will be painted to silver colour, so as to match the black/white theme. A bit worried for the parquet skirting cos' Kenneth said if we zoom in to see of course will not be perfect!
He said, "Look from far confirmed nice" =_="

BTW, we did a mock ordering of ICI dulux paints at the official website and the total cost came up to be $498.41 after 15% discount. See this
What we didn't calculate is the price of the 20L Nippon Matex paint, tools and accessories like masking tapes etc etc...

Renovation Day 2

.

Wiring works have started and we already can visualise the design of our L-box and false ceiling on the ceiling.
Our ceiling fan point also shifted to the center of sofa area... so happy =)
