First Knock

First Knock

Oh no!!! i have a hammer in my bag....Why???

is Mr Ang gonna do our house renovation on his own??? wahahahaha..... no la.... according to our 风水师, just before renovatin starts, there's something call the first knock session...and our first knock session was on 12 Feb, sat, between 9am to 11am.... and all that we have to do is hit a part of our living room with something and then shout "HUAT"

anyway, renovation starting soon, hopefully the contractor will apply for the reno permit this coming monday liao... =)



this is 八叔, a carpenter specialising in wardrobe and cabinets, going thru the cabinet laminate with Mr Ang... we were given 4 thick catalogues to look thru....

the many many options are given us a headache.... decided to seek the expertise of 八叔 to help us mix and match based of what our 风水师 wants... =)





the box of solid surfaces for the kitchen top... we dun really have much choices as all dark colours are not allowed according to our 风水师...which is good...at least she helped us reduced the options that we have.... hahaha.... made our selection so much easier...within 5-10 minutes.... we decided on solarise.... which is white with sparkles... =) ...thinking of pairing it with light brownish laminates for the cabinets....

the type of doors... not much choices too.... which is a good thing for busy people like Mr Ang.... and within another 5 - 10 minutes....

P7 and P8 were selected for the main door and bedroom doors respectively.... what made it more unique was all 3 brothers made the same options..... either say they have telepathy, or they have the same taste or the rest are just too hideous liao... wahahaha.....


Mr Ang had a lot of props while telling 八叔 what we want .... Mr Ang pulled out his ideal chair model (Kok Yong's) for the measurement of his study table, he brought out 2 different sizes of files for the depth of the drawers etc.... hahaha.... he super comical lo.... he nearly wanted to take out his tropy for the depth of the display shelves also lo...



think we will have a good time working with 八叔 and his contractor .... 八叔 very smiley smiley one... i likey.... so far they have given us very reasonable quotes and 八叔 is helping us with all the coordinating and he will be bring us on shopping sprees cos as a contractor, he say the shop owner will give him a better discount then if we are to go on our own....



we are indeed blessed with the a variety of talented people around us... =)...
