true also..my husband also said concentrate on interior as we are going to stay IN, not OUT. but then basic tiling will do la..coz current one is cement only le...

huh? inside give u cement only?

nola..car porch is cement.. inside is tiling of course. big one somemore. so no worries and not going to change also.

haha icic, i tot inside give u without tiles wa, terkejut teo bro give punya tiles all cantik one ur given one is 2ft or 1.6ft tiles?

alamak...i duno le..hahhaa...wait i go back and check..
but then thier workmanship is not good as expected la. met the site supervisor last weekend to complaint again.
to my surprise, the site supervisor looks so young..i wonder if he has experience..

ya lor, I also felt disappointed with the workmanship, u complain to ah teng?

my site supervisor there is Kelvin. Even my backdoor (kitchen door) knob also kena curi. and my all my sinks all without the paip one. all kena curi. so they got to replace for me. and i showed him all the bad bad workmanship and he know says..OK OK..i will rectify for you.

i said i disappointed la...i asked is it because you guys have lots of projects to cover, thats why cincai do?

you know what, i heard from neighbourhood in phase 1 saying that the developer late in delivering the house key for 5 months. and developer got to compensate them. and they did get the compensation la...but my phase...on time pulak...

Nice sharing! Keep us posted

I saw from cari also, those from puncak malim they also ask for compensation due to delay of delivering the key, mine one they damn slow in repair defect, drag me 1 month only start! until I beh tahan, call them frequently cuz they drag my reno too

Sure bro!

budget heavily rely on what u want to do also, do the compulsory first, those can do it later (like outside) then do it later, I do wish to make all in 1 shot, but cant tahan haha, dompet tak cukup tebal

Reno updates:

Painting work

For painting work, I buy the paints myself then engage to a painter to paint my interior house, because after some quotation, it is cheaper for me to get the paints myself and the painter do agree with it, so I just go ahead for the purchase of paint.

Fortunately, when I purchase the paints, ngam ngam ICI is doing offer and have lucky draw for every purchase of 20L (either 1 tong 20L or 4 Tong 5 liter will entitle for that). Not bad to get some KFC, Jusco vouchers and also some free gift as below



After settled down all the plaster ceiling works, then started my painting work. I manage to take the photos with almost the same angles for all process, from before developer paint the wall, after developer painted the wall n then my own painter painted the wall

nice color...

Hehe thanks a lot will post the grill photos soon

Actually I do considering the purpose of room as well in order to select the color, also considering the color of furniture, curtain and also lightining, therefore I avoid darker tone as it looks cram, btw color and lighting are very subjective according to personal preference
