Assalammu'alaikum family, friends, readers and followers of this blog.
I know and well aware that I've been blogging abt my new flat, but oh well, I can't help it.
So since the handover of 2nd April 2016, we pretty much drop by anytime we feel like it. And so we decided to just document the journey while at it.
So, the husband was the one who pretty much visit the house often as he is currently within the area for his on-site job, so with any spare time he have in his hands, he will just drop by.
Few days after, cement was brought over to the kitchen along with some tiles. This is for the kitchen base, washing machine base and fridge base which we requested.
Week 1:
On Friday, 8th April, we decided to get a mirror and behind the door hanger for the house and drop by to put them in the flat so they can put it up for us. And we found that all our windows had mid grills installed already. Yeay! And oh! The service yard have got 3 panel sliding windows and full grills installed too! Yeay yeay yeay!
Pictures don't really do justice as we arrived at night, as so it is pretty dark...

And since we were there, we might just as well go to the playground/park to take a picture of the opposite block, and looks like one unit is working through the night.

Week 2:
My husband dropped by on 11th April and said there was a guy who was doing up our kitchen base. Friendly uncle, he had his helmet camera on so I saw the man behind the work. Hehe..
We dropped by on Saturday, 16th April as there was a Block Party organised by the Town Council and HDB. And here are the picture updates of the house:
 |
| Kitchen Base Part 1 |
 |
| Kitchen Base Part 2 |
 |
| Kitchen Base Part 3 |
Kitchen Base 1 will be where all my appliances will be - the hot pot, the toaster, the oven (if we decided to get one).. Kitchen Base 2 is where my shelf for dry food would be, the bread stock, the jams, the syrup bottles, the soy sauce, the chilli sauce, that sort.. And finally, the Kitchen Base 3 is where my sink and stove will be.
 |
| Base for the Refrigerator |
 |
| Base for the Washing Machine |
And so we utilize the service yard to put our washing machine and fridge. And therefore, limited to a 650x650mm base of both appliances.
 |
| And so the elders are well seated in my living room while we got some measuring done on-site. |
 |
| And here is Baby M who is very confident abt this room being hers. |
We got the
Storation LLP down for an on-site measurement and quotation on the spot, and we opted for full steel shelving to 2.1m height.
Curtain On also came down for an on-site measurement for curtain rod and curtain trail supply and installation. We decided on Curtain Wooden Rod for the living room and have all three rooms with Curtain Trails/Tracks. And all end to end installation. We will be meeting again on Monday for the actual curtain fabrics and quotation for them, good thing there are located at Queensway Shopping Centre, so convenient for us to meet.
Review for both services will be up after the actual installation, InsyaAllah.
I had intended to only post after the reno is fully completed but it is taking too long and we don't wanna keep you guys waiting.. So we will break it up to 2 weeks' process each entry.
So please return the next two weeks for the next update on our Reno Journey.
A happy owner,
Jun
Wassalam
Continuation of Week 3,
