This week, a lot has been done! I'm impressed by their efficiency.
False ceilings and partition were up. Wet works done too!
Now we are only left with the carpentry part.
But of course, there were a few hiccups we faced.
The ID had problems finding the 'metal rod' that we need for the tv console and suggested squarish columns. Rejected and made him go look for anything but square columns. We only want round poles!
And now, he told us that the pink laminate for the kitchen is out. So we have to make a trip down again to find another match for the kitchen. But I'm quite determined to stick to the original idea. So unless he gave me a very solid reason, like the last person on earth making the laminate is dead, I will not relent. Too bad.
Works has been slow this week as the electrician kinda took his own sweet time, resulting in a delay in the putting up of false ceiling.
We engaged two different co. for electrical and renovation cause of the price difference.
No choice. Everything also must save.
Nonetheless, everything else is going quite smoothly. This week, the hacked kitchen walls and floor has been touched up. Aircon pipings are up and connected too. Should be expecting the false ceiling to be up by next week.
Pleased to see our house finally going under renovation. It has been a long time since we collected the keys in dec. But due to all the festivals(CNY, Qing Ming and etc), all works had to be delayed.
Will be going up from time to time to monitor. Almost 80% done with all the furnitures and appliances. Can't wait!
