Casement open one side, have not actually see any casement can open both way. In magazine yes, but I would imagine it will be very expensive.

You can specify to the installer how you want to open. Like open from the right or from the left.

Hi, thanks for bumping up my old post, thought is already sunken deep.

Yes, ikea design are more functional. I use ikea before in my mom house, is really practical. But just the price are high if compare same material.

Money...where got make more, just that we don't spend much on car. I only buy car that are no more than 10 months of my salary. Same to my wife.

Sorry for late reply,

Can't recall the exact pricing. Should be around 7k +-. This is only acid staining. The concrete flooring is done by my contractor.

All done during renovation. I provide the cables, they just do the conduit and conceal follwing my instruction.

Added on August 22, 2012, 4:51 pmCan't recall the exact figures. My wet work about 80k, that include front and rear. My rear extension are will extra support and future by back can go build up without problem.

Wet work is only 50% of the cost, the rest come from tiling, electrical, and IDs

After moving in for almost 18months, here come a new challenge. Termite. It come out from the place I did not do treatment, and according to the pest control it also due to my neighbor renovation that make the termite go and scout for other place. Which kind of explan it happen just after my neighbor done the renovation. 1st discovery was near my bed @ 1st floor, but after I spray it, my first floor was clean for almost 2 months. While doing my own routine checking found it at my store / server room. Good as the damage is not bad. Is only paper box.

Called the termite company do baiting. Shall see how it go in few more baiting.

yup, and even prevention made must do self checking every month. Early detection save $$$.

One of the pets control teach me to put some small unwanted box in the corner, and regually check the box. Termite actually very selective eater. They will eat the best food first like tisue paper, paper box than only news paper if nothing else will eat wood.

I use stopest, you can get the contact from the website. Price wise is pretty standard in the market now. Market is ranging from 1.5 - 2k in baiting system. Mine is 1.6 for one year treatment, think the continue is about 500, yet to ask them for discount, will do it in year 2.

Baiting is good if the termite eat the bait, it will eleminate the colony. After that yearly monitor not treatment lah. Which I am still thinking want to continue or not.

If got time can standby the baiting and DIY. Saw few seller at ebay maybe I should try import in and standby

Wonder why, thought I have reply but my post went missing.

Anyway, nope is not 16', is 13'+. Depend how deep is your parking porch. Mine not so deep so need some maneuver. I drive a big sedan, my wife a Myvi.

If you still in renovation state and want to change all floor tiles is good to do it. I did not do the entire perimeter because some area of flooring I retain. And smart enough they come from the area I did not put. Ah well if we have problem just faced it and fix it.

I plan to buy some from Australia, since I have friend coming into Malaysia frequently from Australia.

Already told my neighbor on my left, the right neighbor seldom see the owner is rented out. But since I am using baiting system is actually good for them because the baiting system will kill the entire colony. According to the staff one colony usually cover few houses and mine the unlucky owner that the termite came out. Maybe is lucky since it only started at my store room.

Last weekend the technician came for the 3rd visit, is about 8 weeks, and still using the same baiting. Termite did not eat all. But the sign of termite are gone.

Inside the bait, no more activity.


Here the other bait, also no more activity.


The other earlier damaged box also no more activity.


Look like the termite came up from my store room door. This is the only door intag during my renovation. I did not renovate the store room and change the door. See the two holes.

Not required. Actually if the damage are minimal is good to remain because the old colony smell is there and new colon won't come in when it detect other colony is there.

Yeah.. The ID is Wei Kee & Wife.

Sorry just found out did not respond to you question.

I don't know on 1 story extension, i did mine close to 5k if I remember. With RM 1k of Bin fees, and Few hundreds for the "Cukai Pintu"

Sorry been very busy in work, no time to write. I use polyurethane wood sealer after I stain the wood.

Have not try big wood, but I stain the Ikea Standing chair.

Thank you.
