Hi tomjason, im going to renovate my house before i move in, hopefully can start the project early july. I want to change the existing tiles (1 x 1ft) and replace to 2 x 2 ft tiles + skirt for the entire house (approximately 1300sf). It is difficult to do it? i also plan to install plaster ceiling and kicthen cabinet. And if got extra money, i want to extend my kicthen further (28 x 10 ft). please give me the formula n advise me also. thanks ya!!

Tomjason, from fews of your comment, its seem the cost for hacking wall n floor is relatively cheap (i consider below 1k is cheap because i expect more since need to demolish a tough wall n firm floor). is the cost is around that range?

me too. having bad quality door and door frame with bad plastering which required skim coating.

is it normal for syabas meter to have smaller size pipe at the meter n change back to normal size after that? i mean, before the meter, they use 1" or 3/4", at the meter using smaller diameter of the pipe, and after that back to original size.

does it effect water pressure?

forget to take picture. but i saw my neighbour also having the same.

hi bro Yamma,

those old days rule about 10 years ago SYABAS insisted to use 1/2" and 3/4" before to avoid water pressure drop..but nowadays SYABAS allow to have 1 " pipe before meter. That why recently about 7 months ago i hv change to 1 " stainless steel pipe pipe before the meter....very good water pressure and volume..i love it... just for RM250 only..you cannot get that price..i hv special deal...



i mean, on the meter itself. before and after meter, 1 inch. but about half feet before and half feet after the meter including the meter, the pipe is small. is it normal? or i can ask for the meter with 1 inch pipe also?
