Spent the morning chatting with Architect & ID clarifying their quotations Pending their revised quote to sign the deal!! Happy! "de-dey" - The Wajek Project Team!! Architect - Mr. Tay of Lim-Hai Associates (a semi-retired nice uncle!) ID - Dess of three-d conceptwerke (my all-time favorite designer!) Hooray!! Hooray!! Hooray!!

Hi all, Finally, after 30 days of "nuaying", am willing to be back into action again This time round, serious enough to read through all t-blogs again & to jot down all impt pointers for our renovation project. Tks to jumbopanther for the headsup - a relief to know that I am still staying on track 1. ID Search - Done 2. Architect Search - Done 3. Structural PE Search - Pending for architectural drawings to progress 4. Land Surveyor Search - Architect to recommend 5. Builder Search - Architect to call for tender Need help here: 1. As we are doing re-construction, do I need to contact PUB to cut off the supplies / read meter etc? 2. As termites spotted during architect visit earlier this month, do we do the soil / pest control treatment before tearing down the building or after? What else do I need to take note? Tks in advance!

Hi Hi, Looking forward to keys collection next week - 1 Nov! Yeah! Just received the ID's quotation yesterday Scopes of Service - (19K) 1. Design 2. M&E (Planning & Detailing) 3. Project Management & Site Co-ordination 4. Interior Styling Pls advise if: 1. Quote is reasonable? 2. Any other scopes to be expected? Tks again! cheers,

Phew! Architect confirmed that mine are cement roof tiles Heard that abestos roof can only be disposed by authorized companies

It excludes the evaluation for payment. Tks for the heads up! Will explore with the architect again! 20 more days to key collection cheers,

Hi all, Have just received a lump sum quote from the architect - S$12K. Scope includes: - prepare & submit plans to URA, BCA, other technical departments etc & obtain all clearances - periodic inspection of work till completion - co-ordinate with other consultants to ensure compliance of relevant regulations - application of TOP / Certificate of Statutory Completion - call for tender (Main Contractor) Is quote reasonable? Pls advise. Tks in advance!

Hi, Tks again for the great info! Ha! Probably cos we are getting tired + old, thus climbing up the stairs for the past 7 years ESP with the groceries for the past 2 yrs is kinda a dread. ha! ha! Single storey with high ceiling so that we can build a mezzanine

Really great info!!! Definitely useful to us!!!! Tks! cheers,

Wow! Wow! Tks for the info!!! Really not as straightforward as HDB.......... Jia you jia you jia you!!!!

Wow! U guys are really experts - I am definitely not gd, hubby tackles that portion. Hee! Hee! I will settle interior We will still keep it single storey, thus we doubt that the cost would hit a million. Heard from a property valuer that there are properties in that area with lease top-up recently, which is gd news for us but we will not be doing it now. Lease top-up is calculated based on the market price, so we will probably wait.

Looking forward to receiving quotations from Architect & ID Hopefully it's within our budget. What should I take note in the architect's quotation?

Hope that everything will be 顺顺利利! Now pending quotation from surveyor Cheers,

We are yet to go into details with the architect yet - I guess after TOPO Meanwhile, He has requested us to obtain the following documents from our lawyer - road interpretation, sewerage & drainage (legal requisition reply).

Met with Architect & ID on site yesterday At least we are moving forward - HAPPY! We will first be required to bring in the land surveyor to do topography on site - one day required (guess we will be doing it after key collection) Architect has advised us to go for reconstruction as: 1. More cost efficient 2. Termites spotted on site 3. we need to elevate the ground near entrance We will most likely for the next 4 months to tackle on designs + submission / approval + sourcing for builders HOORAY!!!

Hope that there will be some progress after architect views the place next tue

Hi Suyun, ID said the entire project including drawings + submission + Reno - may take up to 1 year. Too long too long
