ceiling works, aircon and plumbing started..

Mega update..

It seems our ID has been quite busy over the last few days..
  • ceiling
  • air conditioner
  • bedroom flooring
  • plumbing
.. Ceiling works..
Looks like our false ceiling has been installed after electrical works have been completed..

The view of the living room..

Cove light area just above the living room..
Partition wall for the glass door..

.. Air conditioners ...
As you can see from the above pictures.. another item has been installed: air conditioners..

The air conditioner trunking covers before they're installed
air conditioner units in living and dining rooms
the compressor units... side by side..

By the way, the cornices are also visible in the above picture..
We put cornices in the corner of the rooms without false ceiling..

.. Bedrooms flooring ..
It looks like the HDB has completed their cement screeding of the rooms..

master bedrooom..
bedroom2..
and the timber skirting...
and parquet flooring ready to be installed .. maybe next week? yay!

.. Plumbing ..

Plumbing works also started.. they've taken apart PVC pipes from the flat and replaced them with metal pipings..

Looks like the water piping in the common bathroom is going to be a bit unsightly

.. Lightings..
Last Saturday, we bought the lights for our place: from downlights to bathroom lights.
We got the our lights from Vlux, a lighting shop in Geylang (ph: 67427288 , look for Desmond).
We've not bought the dining table lights as we figure we need to get the dining table first before we get the lights for it.. make sense? we think so :-)
We also haven't bought the outdoor light for our balcony as Vlux had limited number of outdoor lights

.. Curtains..
We also made some inquiries from a couple of curtain suppliers
Just for information, we got our quotation from the following persons.. (sorted by decreasing quotation values)..
- Lee (a curtain maker recommended by our ID: 9455 4230)
- Carlton trading : (Queensway - Kevin - 9691 4662)
- Jimmy Textiles: (Katong - Lucas : 6745 6423 )
- Mr. Ah Gu: a freelance curtain maker recommended by our colleague (Ah Gu: 9787 1183) ..

We've a pretty good idea on who we want to confirm the deal with .. but we'll sleep on this first :-)

On that note.. that's all folks..
That's the update for this week...
