28th April 2007 - Hb and I met Eesy (yes, that's the name of the guy) at Kallang in the morning and he brought us to Haffari, a shop at Balestier that sells tiles. There we were, selecting tiles for different parts of the house and it was kinda fun! We were pretty amazed that Haffari actually carries tiles with wallpaper designs! So who says you have got to use wallpaper? Use tiles manz! They even come with shiny specks! I love our toilet tiles, wahahahhaha! Did I mention we are going to redo both toilets?? Yes, that's what we are going to do, as I hate the current tiles provided by H*B! In particular, I like the tiles we are going to use for our balcony ledge. Kinda retro in a way, and being glossy, the black colour, together with its design, becomes an attraction by itself! Eesy was quite surprised that we only took 1.5 hours to select all our tiles. I guess he doesn't know that I like to do things "chop chop", lol. We went to his office at Upper Boon Keng Road to select the type of laminate we want for the bedrooms and study. Done within 20 mins, haha! Eesy told us that he has already applied for the permit, so we'll be able to start on our renovation next week, yay! Can't wait for our little corner to be done up nicely!
*Different designs for different parts of the house. We were given samples of those that we selected to bring home too, cool!
Showed The Low Clan the sample tiles we brought back and they also like the designs we chose, phew! Eesy is really quite easy-going, lol. We were supposed to select the $2.70 psf range for the toilet, but we eyed the range that cost $3.20 psf and he was willing to absorb the cost! In fact, there are many things he is quite flexible with and doesn't charge us extra. I am sure if it were Albert, he would definitely charge is the extra cost per square feet!
