red_devil... just wondering...previous owner had aircon? if so, new piping/trunking done? relocating of compressor etc?

hey red devil, nice choice of colour for your walls. what is it? latte? met jason again last night before he rushed off to your place. he brought catalogues for the doors and gates for u n your wife to choose. i'm very impressed as it was only the day before we met and he forgot to bring them over.

hm...any so far? your wife seems very meticulous;any mistake will b minor and easily rectified. already, i'm thinking of shifting my toilet windows. n that, i learn from u. haha. thanks ah

i think jason mentioned another three weeks, end sept we can go over to 'learn'.

hi red devil...nice toking to u n mrs earlier. now i can see what you mean regarding the cornices. i have to refer my boss regarding that. haha

you can approach andy, senior designer. he's quite responsive, but definitely not the cheapest. not the most expensive either

jason took less than 2 weeks to email me my quotation. n yeah, he's quite flexible with 'add-ons'.

one of only 2 brands to use 100% acrylic? what's the other? I am actually thinking of using marble top or equivalent. any advice?

hi. u mentioned u will b relocating the toilet's windows. is that allowed? i wanna change too. haha

am engaging him as my contractor. very comfortable communicating with him. not calculative...n that's rare among Ids, especially.

n its a small world. we r neighbours for now. im at blk 2c upper boon keng.

need your advise. jason asking me to go look n select tiles. thing is...i do not know how he's gonna redo my toilets. yours got mosaic?

hi. wats the stuff u want done? lots of carpentry?

hi all i guess the reason why mine is less than 50k even though it's a major overhaul is because im keeping my marble flooring and parquet. everything else got to go. only got one built in wardrobe. yeah. includes electrical n windows. coffee_0..let me know hows the quote coming along. red_devil....any reason why u never buy tiles at hafary?

hi. mine dakota. 26 years. major overhaul including staircase. jason quoted me below 50k. agreed to his price. reno will commence mid nov.

hi. can share how much your water feature cost?

hey...that's a thought. install only when needed. but well, nice as it is, safety is always of paramount importance. guess i have to obey my fiancee's wishes to install glass as substitute

just wondering...anyone's house here the staircase has no hand railings? at either side?

guilty. me n my wife to be are both teaching. guess teachers love climbing stairs. lol

hey..yur a teacher? my wife to be is one too

hey doodbug... u can also upload fotos at photobucket.com

hey. lucky u. mine is an old em which has a big balcony that the owner did not roof over. now pondering what to do with such a big balcony. u think i shd just cover it up n extend it into the living room as well?

hi. thanks apparently mine is a first generation em. first to be built. storerm,not study, on grd floor been readg yur tblog

hi lazydevil my fiancee and i have decided to keep the marble flooring and and the parquet. we r overhauling the kitchen and the staircase. yes, my fiancee wants the glass railings. we have no built in wardrobe. just tv feature wall, console n a wall feature to hide the stoor rm door. n we changing the toilets. for the above, i have received an average of 48k from ard 10 ids. it's good cos we learn alot from the discussions we had with them. we already made up our mind on what we want. as such, we're leaning towards hiring a contractor instead of an id company. how abt u? we can share quotes if you wish. i have gathered some of them in an excel file.

Hi everyone i've just bought an EM at dakota crescent, off old airport road. getting my keys mid november. doing reno immediately cos im getting married mid dec and moving in end of the year. currently sourcing for contractors as IDs all quote me ard 50k to overhaul a 26-yr old flat. anyone to recommend? wish me luck
