Reno@Kovan Maisonette - Updates

The homeowners have gotten themselves a new roller shutter in to prevent the rain as well as some creepy crawlies like lizards and cockroaches as the missus is very afraid of them.
 Here's how it looks together with the sliding window below the shutters.
For the Patio, the concrete base for the washer is completed with the floor tiles and it's looking quite decent now. I'm sure it will look really nice after a good wash.

Above: some photos of the cove lights for the false ceiling, all laid neatly in the Patio Installation of the false ceiling is currently in progress now.

And we have 2 DB meters here because of the numerous electrical wirings we have for this maisonette. This is another problem!!! Because the contractor had purchased a new db box that is loaded top and bottom instead of 2 separate db box being put side by side, our cove lights here have a slight problem because the door swing of the db is so big that we will need to cut a big hole in the false ceiling to allow the db box to be open from left to right!!! ARGH.

And we cant shift it inside the study area because of the column on the right and can't shift to left because of the column on the left!
真是左右为难!

More photos of the beautiful parquet staircase. The parquet is actually quite expensive so the homeowners are going for the smaller piece parquet for the staircase threads and the long pieces of parquet for the staircase risers.

I think it's every penny's worth.

 Bedroom 3's cove lights are done!





False ceiling is almost completed in both the toilets too! I think it's about 90% completed, now leaving the pelmet area.
