reason i still keep my gate is for food delivery to hang the food there lol, you are fine without that since you have a super huge area outside to even put a bench table! as for toilets separate by girl and guy, it works if they are near to each other and also because you had a very open layout, else guest have to enter your master room to access toilet is not very convenient. For me, we just keep the bathing at one to reduce the cleaning effort which is always a chore
Hahahahaa. Those are all very true points. Works for us doesn't necessarily work for everyone! ✌🏻✌🏻 Hahahahha. Create your most unique home that works for you! 👍🏻
Great video! Thanks for sharing this. The plants really help to brighten up the space! Fits very nicely with the cement screed. Was the service yard plank also installed by the ID?
Hi, was looking through ur video when something caught my eye. @7:15 of video, I would like to ask where did u get the black rubber mat (with circle design) from? I dunno what is the proper actual name of it and have been looking for it for some time. Hope u can share where to get it from. Thanks.
yo cool platform bec u hv . usually what i see is its facing sideways u enter from the side . urs is the other way round . open in the front and instrad of tv wall or what is the wardrobe to the side. literally inspired me abit haha also is the platform okay for heavy items ?
Hahahah. Thanks for the kind words. Yes it's ok for heavy but depending on what you considered heavy. I'm 90ish kg + carry some heavy box when walking on it and it's fine 👍🏻
I don't think so. My understanding is we need a fire rated but nothing is said with the gate. Nevertheless, We did check with our town council and HDB, both have no issue with us removing it.
hi! the LED lights at home, are the material and installation by your ID? oh and also, are the toilet doors PD door? did you knock down your existing door frame?
@@NiJiaCasa my ID was saying removing the existing doorframe might break the inside tiles and gotta deal with water proofing issues. That will incur quite a bit of cost. Was it the same for you?
@@rl1050 we didn't have this issue. The tiler did a great job removing it without cracking anything at all. ID didn't mentioned that's gonna be an issue too. Nevertheless, I believe wasteproofing layer is only like 30cm from the floor up. Not all the way.
Bro, love the attitude and the video series. Appreciate the effort and insight. Your toilet doors - looks like a swing and slide, are they? Can share the vendor details?
I won't say it's smooth like tiles. But it's smooth enough that my feet don't feel it. I notice over time with mopping(using mi vacuum), it gets smoother. 👍🏻
I’m thinking about removing my gate too but there were comments that when the cleaner washes the HDB floors outside, the water will seep into your house? 🤔 does it happen to you?
@@NiJiaCasa thanks! Is the depth within 30cm? My ID also quoted $60 per feet (depth within 30cm) and $120 per feet (depth 60cm)... I was shocked when he quoted me $600 haha
@@NiJiaCasa sorry, got a question. I noticed you embedded your unit number in the cement screed. What is the material of that? Where and how much did it cost you?
👍👍👍overtime your flooring will be smooth, shiny n nice looking.
It's starting to smoothen alrdy! Really nice

Is it legal to remove gate?

Hello! I love cement screed floors! May I check if you got do a protective sealant on your floor?
Nope. We didn't. We opt for raw
@@NiJiaCasa ah okie nice!

hi hi! great videos! just want to check if no gate is against hdb rule? wanted to do gateless too but my contractor said its against hdb rule :(
I don't think so. My understanding is we need a fire rated but nothing is said with the gate. Nevertheless, We did check with our town council and HDB, both have no issue with us removing it.
Where did you get the plank for the service yard?
It's done by our carpenter 👍🏻

hi! the LED lights at home, are the material and installation by your ID?
oh and also, are the toilet doors PD door? did you knock down your existing door frame?
For led, we brought them but installation is by the electricians.
As for the Toilet door, yes. We did remove the original door frame 👍🏻

Thanks so much!! Yes swing and slide. We got them from PD Door. 😆
what material did you use for the mat outside the entrance? is it ok to place items outside like that?
It's from Ikea. Plastic material.
As for if it's allow, I guess if it doesn't post hazard, its should be fine
Hey NiJia,
Is micro cement better than normal cement?
I heard is smoother and crack less often. Ultimately depend on your requirements
@@NiJiaCasa Thank you.
hi. the vanity top in the toilet, are they custom made ？
Hey! If you are referring to the cement top, yes customed by our tiler!
Hi Tks for your reply
Wondering since you said your cement floor feels good to the touch.. isn't it rough? Mine is.. which makes me want to apply some coating lol
I won't say it's smooth like tiles. But it's smooth enough that my feet don't feel it. I notice over time with mopping(using mi vacuum), it gets smoother. 👍🏻
Do u need any prior approval before front gate removal?
Actually, no. Hdb make it's pretty clear you can remove it.

Thanks bro!
Is the floor cold when u on aircon?
For me(Nic), it's not. For yj, it's a little.
it’s it cheaper than tiles/vinyl?😀
I’m thinking about removing my gate too but there were comments that when the cleaner washes the HDB floors outside, the water will seep into your house? 🤔 does it happen to you?
Hey! Nope coz we made a curb 😆
@@NiJiaCasa ooooooo didn’t think of that damn . The curb is outside the main door?
@@coach.jaytee yep it is. 😬
Hi Nick, congrats and nice house !
Could you share how much it costs to install the plank in the service yard?
Greatly appreciate 🙂
Thank you! That cost about $270($60 per ft at 4.5ft) 👍🏻👍🏻
@@NiJiaCasa thanks! Is the depth within 30cm? My ID also quoted $60 per feet (depth within 30cm) and $120 per feet (depth 60cm)...
I was shocked when he quoted me $600 haha
Mine was probably deeper like half a meter. But they quote me lower in consideration of all the other carpentry I have. 👍🏻
May i know where did u buy ur coffee table?
It's from Taobao!
Hi, may i know what the the code or brand of the sage green kitchen laminate? Tq
The brand is panaplast!
Hahahah YOLO. Great fish tank in your head. Keep it up.
what do you mean 🤔
Hi Nic, how you find the workmanship of the carpentry?
For me, it's really good
@@NiJiaCasa thanks! They are one of the IDs we are looking at so wanted to check with you on workmanship.
@@NiJiaCasa hey, just to let you know. We'll be using the same ID :)
@@neoby4088 NICE!! 👍🏻👍🏻
@@NiJiaCasa sorry, got a question. I noticed you embedded your unit number in the cement screed. What is the material of that? Where and how much did it cost you?

Unless u dont have delivery or a wife, removing the gates in hdb can be dangerous…
