My kitchen extension at the back has these exposed roof truss (I wanted transparent roof tiles for the laundry drying area.).
The roof truss is raw and has no finishing at all.
Your roof truss finishing is done before or after installation?

There is supposed to be a zinc flashing between the top edge to the roof tile and the wall. This will prevent water from seeping in during rain.

Hopefully the top part, there is still wall left and not the balcony edge or window edge. blink.gif

At last my auto gate is up (no motor yet).  This is one of my satisfied item, so far...RM6,250 for 14' gate with motor, small gate and pillar lights.

Total installation time about 6 hours, including paint touch up...

Beautiful gate. Looks classy. rclxms.gif

My Chinese contractor and Chinese wireman also give me nightmare.  After I moved in for more than 2 months, the rectification works still not done yet.  I already wrote them off. 

Sad to say, trust them at the begining, paid them as request promptly.  The wireman (recommended by him) I suspect already paid more than than the total contract work but without invoice, quotation and receipts.

This is my worst experience I had ever faced in my life, spend money and get shit out of it.

Thanks for your concern.  Suppose to delivery to me last Monday, but I ask them not to.  I checked it at their factory, but sad to say, still got some area not to our satisfaction, so ask them to rectify.

Already 10 days after that, still waiting....

What a poor family...sitting on the floor to watch TV.
