A fruitful week..

07 July, Monday
By right Dennis say can be done by this week.. but i dun think so..No Hope by this month end lor..

Anyway.. Monday nothing much.. the electrician, Ah Soon came to finish up some electrical works.. got one Banglah assist him.. seems blur blur.. He wasnt free last week so he carry on from where his frend end.. He came early and left before lunch le..

08 Jul, Tuesday
Ok.. today first time i saw so many workers from different areas in my house.. Construction Barrier
First.. Morning, the Banglah came to do the drilling works for my dining light and MBR switch..
Construction Worker

The banglah power man.. no googles still can tahan.. i stand behind the kitchen glass door also squinting my eyes le..

Dining light wires hidden isisde the groove

MBR Switches will fit in the hole..

Ah soon came and mend the holes with the wires well hidden..
And the switches are done for our MBR.. Cove lighting and downlights..
So many lights in one room.. heeSmiley Sunglasses
Our cosy corner light..
WIW light..

Platform light..

Then came the carpentry.. But they only did the minimal.. cos some miscomm with their side.. forget to bring this and that..
Still, they did some things today..Hammering

Wadrobe sliding door.. TV console before..Modify..
After..

Notice any difference? The left wooden beam is cut shorter and placed at the corner of the TV console instead of touching the ground..

Then my MBR platform storage has 6 "doors", cos at first the 2 doors too heavy le.. Told Dennis that the doors too heavy very hard to lift.. so ask him to split into smaller portions.. Sawing

My bathroom accessories also came.. no lar.. actually bought last thursday.. from Hoe Kee.. hee.. got a little discount cos my buddy is the CEO's son.. Hello

Also the guys came to install all the bathroom accessories.. include kitchen tap.. Plumber

But no pics for toilet cos forgot to take.. too engross with the carpentry works.. especially my TV console.. will update in future posts.. hee


By evening, one by one left.. bathroom done.. electrician will cont tmr.. then carpentry not much could be done.. cos they seem to have forgot to bring a few stuffs.. i heard one of the carpenters scolding another carpenter say this also forget to bring that also forget.. hmm.. Very Confused

Another headache is how to run the wires for the TV console.. the carpenter, electrician and me were thinking of the best way to run the wires.. Cos when the platform was up, Dennis did not ensure where the wires should be run.. now no choice but to expose the wire casing.. Ponder

The casing would have to be exposed on the platform.. Dennis say will paint the same colour as the platform lor..

Then also the metal swivel rod may seem big but the hole inside is too small to fit the TV plug.. after discussion with the carpenter and his boss.. we got no choice but to cut the plug head and fit thru the metal rod hole and then fix back the plug head.. (of cos this would be done by the electrician..) But this is the only way to fit the rod inside the pole.. At the meantime still thinking of other alternatives.. Hmm

By the way my Dad came over to visit also.. Dennis came in the evening to see see.. but when he came, all the workers had left.. but we still did soem discussion.. and i told him abt the TV console etc.. he's also arranging for the door and air-con and everything outstanding.. by next week should be done.. Wakka Wakka

At this time the guy who did the false ceiling at the beginning of the reno came to patch up some holes.. he funny fellow..
