yea...i was at ikea last weekend & saw their drawer system quite nice & expensive too..... there's this carousel wire basket for corner cabinet which is on offer. looks kinda filmsy....i wonder if anyone here have used it can care to share their experience with it. many thanks in advance. also they have this set of 3 30cm wide pull-out system drawers going at $130 per set. i wonder if its a good buy...

has anyone here done a price comparison for these pole system wardrobe? i did go to 2 places for a price estimate for my 16ft wardrobe.....prices for both came to >$4k..... then i went to Ikea to work out a cost estimate and it came to abt $2k. of cos with Ikea, i do not get the choice of colors, nice assessories like fancy drawers & pigeon holes shelving & sliding doors......

i'm considering getting the pole system wardrobe from Ikea.....anyone wif experience can share? many thanks!

its a matter of personal choice whether to fully or partially tile up yr kitchen wall. my present kitchen is not fully tiled. however in my reno, i've decided to fully tile all exposed wall. fortunately for me, i've asked my contractor to include all cost for reinstating plumbing & electricals affected by the reno but i'll need to provide the electrical switchgears.

hahahaa...my guess will be that the contractor make use of whatever leftover lengths he has......

yup...u r correct.....i probably will shop around for a chrome set after reno's done and if the sight of the white pvc bottle trap is really ugly......

i got an aerogaz instant heater left behind by the previous owner....looks fairly new....thinking or reinstalling it in my common toilet.....hope its still good & working.

hi, sori for late reply......i got the cheapest oven there is (with 5 functions).....got all 3 for less than $1.1k in all....

i suggest that you get another contractor to quote for comparison.

juz my estimate on the cost base on the foto & my little knowledge.... 1. Cabinet 10ft x $230 pfr = $2300 2. Solid surface 10ft x $80 pfr = $800 3. Sink w/tap = $250 4. 3 burner glass hob = $380 5. Slimline hood = $280 Total = $4010

i was quoted $0.70 to $0.80 psf for area >500sqft ($350 lumpsum for <500sqft). stairway is about $350 per stair.

very nice..... ;-)

hi bbprincess, congrats on your new purchase. is it located around yck area? i read in here that rebuilding a landed house would cost in the region of 300 to 400k. i've juz started my the reno work on my house today, if my contractor turn out to be good, i'll intro to you...meantime, all the best.....cheers!

wow....good to hear that....cos i juz ordered a joven water heater with energy saving function yesterday....was told to add $15 for the energy saving gadget....dunno if i kena bluff or not......

hi, did u buy yours during the electrolux warehouse sale at toa payoh? i got my 1st ever electrolux brand hob, hood & oven at the sale. delivering this end june.....never used electrolux stuffs before but heard so much good things about it.....hope it wont disappoint....

hi, i've the same dilemma as you yesterday but i've decided on taking the white pvc bottle trap since it comes free with my glass vanity/basin top. wanting a chrome trap will $35 & thats excluding the connecting pipeworks. i'm tinking of spray painting the pvc bottle trap black to see how it turns out. worst case, i will LL go buy the chrome set & diy....

hi, i'm also at a split between laminate or glass for my mbr vanity cabinet. btw how much does yr glass finished vanity cabinet cost? is the table top in glass too or is it solid surface? thanks.

i was contemplating getting a massage panel too but i'm concern about water wastage, imagine u standing there enjoying the water spray and all the while water (aka $$$$$$) is flowing into the drain.....i would tink having a massage bath tub makes more sense as the water is recirculated....

Hi Ada, nice knowing you here. I'm also very new here and is researching for my house reno works. may I know where you work and what do you sell? Maybe you may have some interesting products that I may looking for. Thanks

yaa...i'm also shopping for bathroom basin with cabinets.....but most seen are either "boring" in design or too expensive (>$400) excluding tap, etc.....

hi, sorry for the late reply. btw, we've decided to proceed with renovating my place. we'll decide thereafter if we still want to sell it. cheers!

Electrolux fair is on this weekend. I was there this afternoon & stuffs are selling fast. Got myself a Hob, Hood & Oven for my new place.

Hi, I know this thread is quite dated. However, I'm in the process of renovating my place and am shopping for the usual stuffs. I come across a shop at Balestier selling NOBEL brand sinks, taps & mixers. Price & appearance seems pretty good. However, I cant seem to find anyone here in Renotalk having mentioned this brand. If anyone here have any experience with this brand, I will greatly appreciate your feedback. Thanks.

hi sorry for late reply as i've been busy...i;ve only called the contractor for a verbal quote on his rates. i've not decided on who to award the work too yet as my reno contractor seems to be giving me a pretty competitive pricings.

hi care to enlighten what is blockboard? tks!
