Hi Bro, so happy that you got all your LED from the supplier I recommended you. You really made a wise decision. My own brother also regret getting those cheaper LED before his renovation. After he saw mine, he changed all his LED from Gary. And yes, he replaced all his 16 down lights after just 8 months purchasing from someone "boasted' his items quality but lights starts to flicker very soon. Thanks for supporting my Blog, and again, I will only share good quality items and those I felt not worthwhile I would not even mention. All the best bro!!!! Enjoy your new environment

Hi Mr Teo, I don't have any contractor yet. I had google search and found a few bto packages. Mine unit is a 4 room HDB flat, some of the website listed from $10k to $15k. Other quoted me $30k to $40k Can anyone please guide me on how to attach my floor plan into this topic? I had my floor plan in my laptop.
