  1. Job done and satisfied with Ronald and Tiler Seng services. How I rated them. > Initial plan and follow up 7.5 points > Tile selections. DIY - ask Ronald to accompany u and u might get 15% discount display price. > Tiling of kitchen and toilet 8.0 points > Kitchen sink stand 8.5 points > Tiling of Living and Dinning room with 800*800 Tiles. 8.0 points > Plastering - 8.5 points > Electrical - 8.5 points > Follow up and project management 8.5 points > Price wise - Reasonable Other stuffs not done by them (Can ask ronald - price wise should be the same) > Painting - DIY > Designing - DIY (Ronald and Ah Seng will give u suggestion) > Air-con - from friends. > 3 Rooms - Pergo Laminate Flooring from Floor options > Cabinet - from friends. What i like about them, I can't really judge how well the tiling is done. Ah seng and ronald will do some checking on the tiler's workmanship. They will score more points if they do more checking and quality control.
  2. Almost complete. Now painting the house myself. Still deciding what color to paint for my living and dining room. After painting will be my cabinet, where i ask my friend to do it. So far the services for As Seng and the partner Ronald is very responsive. Has not complete yet. Will give more feedback on their service once everything has been done.
  3. Hope this can help you guy to filter out some sub-contractor who do short-cut job. Is the steps below correct? Any one got better steps? Or standard practice steps. Steps: 1. Paint the floor or wall tile with adhesive and let it dry. 2. Lay the tiles with good adhesive. Some sub-contractor just lay the tiles without step 1.
  4. After signing the contract. Within 4 days get the hdb permit. Ah seng Hacker completed hacking within 3 working day. Currently tiling of 2 toilets and kitchen almost complete. Overall workmanship is good for the 2 toilets and kitchen. Still left with kitchen and 2 toilets floor, bathtub and kitchen sink stand. The actual workmanship will be tested coming week when his tiler lay my living and dining area as i am using the 800*800 tiles which requires a lot of skill! Initial is for him to do tiling, but end up plastering,toilets door and electrical also let him manage. Will update his plaster man and electrician skill when completed. One things, Ah Seng is not doing the tiling work himself. He manage his tilers and do the quality control. His partner Ronald do the managing of whole project. I talk the the tilers, most of them are Malaysia with more than 20 years experiences.
  5. 40K for 3 room resale.. woo that alot. Maybe your expectation is very high. Just started my renovation, I engaged tiler seng for my tile work. Now still hacking. By next web, will start the tiling work. No comment on tiler seng yet and work have not started. Cabinet done by direct capenter at $170 psf (top and bottom) Electrical about 1.5K Pastering whole house 2.2K Painting and laminate 3 rooms still sourcing. My is a 5A HDB flat 133 sqm. Tiling and hacking exclude 3 room is about 15K. Bought tile directly from suppier for about 6K... All add up should be around 30K +- 3K.
  6. For the cabinet will be asking direct carpenter to do it. Introduce by friend. PSF is about $170 (Top and bottom). Another got ideas how to cover the dustbin and still easy to discard waste. If build the width 60 cm, difficult to open it. So now currently thinking of building a width of 45 cm(Just beside the sink) and dont cover it. Here is the almost complete design for my cabinet.
  7. Just completed my tile selection.... Woo... Very hard for my wife to make decision on the color and pattern to choose.... went to soon bee huat and lian seng hin. See too much until do know how to choose... Learn from it.... Steps of selecting tile. - Make sure u went to look at the tile one month in advance... - After see most of the tile and showroom.. u will have some ideas. - make few trip if possible. Get sample back home and feel it u like the tiles. Lian seng hin offer me 10% discount and Soon bee huat 0% if i buy directly from them. Go through my contractor... and they offer me around 15% discount. Some contractor is able to get 20% discount. U can buy tiles from different supplier. I will be getting from lian seng hin and soon bee huat. Personally, Lian seng hin customer services is much better than Soon bee huat. Basically i spend about 6K of tiles for kitchen, 2 bathrooms, living room balcony, dining room.
  8. balcony - (Going to remove sliding door, remove the wall tile)
  9. Toilets before renovation. Hack and redo both bathroom. Build long bath at master bathroom. Will be using city gas for the heater. (Installation of heater and piping of gas is done by city gas)
  10. Master bed room - going to paster whole house and laminate the 3 rooms. Going to remove the build in cabinet
  11. going to hack the floor and change the 300*300 to 800*800 floor tile. Tiler seng does not recommend 800*800 as some of the tile might look even. Still go ahead with the 800*800. Paster whole living, ceiling and dining. change all eletrical
  12. Will be signing contract with with him and his partner ronald coming Monday. Start work in next friday and tile work following Wednesday. Will post feedback about the tiling skill and services. Expect to be completed within 4 to 6 weeks. Total cost for my 2 toliets, kitchen and living and dinning, balcony, long bath and plumbing is about 15K without tile cost. Include hacking cost of my old resale 133 sqm hdb flat. 3 others room will be laminate floor.
  13. Asked quotation for the $2.9 psf and $3.5 psf. U know what... 2.9 psf quotation is more expensive by 1K for the tiling work. Which include water pipe, washing, fridge and cabinet base, bath tub. installation of toilet, basin etc. I got a designer house to quote for the whole house, the tiling work price is almost same as the tiling work done by the Internet 3.5 psf. (Quite difficult to compare the price as the tiles price is included for the designer house)
