  2. Recently I bought a resale flat at Tampines.. A 27yr old unit with very old fashioned tiling and colour. There was no renovation done previously.

    I was looking around for a good contractor whose workmanship and pricing were suitable for me need as we are starting off a family after our wedding, less then 3 mths ago. That was then my Best friend recommended his contractor from Home 13 Renovation to me.

    When i contacted the company, the Contractor (Jack) was very friendly and provided free consultation and viewing of the unit.

    He also gave ideas to renovated the house and always had a CAN-DO attitude. He was very encouraging to all our ideas. His quotation for all ideas we gave was much less then what we got from companies. We spend 24K for almost a 30K renovation quoted by other IDs.

    Home 13 Renovation has met all my needs. My home has now turned into a dream home.

    They give me a guarantee and extended service when i needed some touch ups at my home.

    My family and friends were impressed with the renovation and the cost incurred.

    2 relatives of mine engaged Home 13 Renovation after visiting me in my new flat. And they too were happy with the workmanship and cost incurred.

    This is exceeding our budget. We are also thinking of ways to cut the cost. Sincerely seeking help to enlighten us. thank you in advanced.


  5. what you said is right. i had been around asking and they only provide the 3D if i sign the contract with them. if not, i need to place a deposit for the drawings. and hopefully after the drawings i will sign the contract with them i guess. the deposit will then be offset from the total contract sum. if not, i may not be able to get my deposit back. =( well, it's totally fine since they are just trying to do business. it's my first time doing renovation and im a total noob. therefore i find it so hard to trust the designer without knowing how the house will look like.

    sir-dc: can you pm me your drafter's contact?

  7. Hi all,

    We recently bought a resale flat and have plans to renovate these areas:

    1. Kitchen => tear down existing kitchen cabinets and built new ones. Redo a bit of the flooring.

    2. Common and master bedroom toilets => simple reno for common toilet and total overhaul for master bedroom toilet, we are extending the toilet out into the bedroom to make it bigger.

    3. Carpentry works in master bedroom and a bit in the living room

    We shortlisted a contractor and here is the quotation. Do you think it is reasonable or too expensive?

    Any items you would challenge the quote on or anything you'll advise us to cut down on to save some money?

    Bulk of the cost actually comes from carpentry....

    We are newbies in renovating a house, haha, and would really appreciate anyone who can advise us. Thanks in advance!!!

  11. Hi!

    I've been lurking around looking at t-blogs for ideas. :thumbs up:

    Now it's time to come to a decision on who to engage for my reno. I've met a few IDs and it was a mix of feelings. One was quite eager and very helpful to our needs but when we told him our budget, he became quite reluctant. Another was genuinely interested but his quotes were slightly on the high side for some stuffs. The last one we met, totally no chemistry - hence, we are lost.

    People have been advising me to go for contractors instead (because we know what we wanted and the reno job is quite small) but we aren't very sure who to look for. Out budget is about $10k (max) with electrical works & cabling all in.

    Our house will be a new 5-room DBSS flat, so most of the fittings are already done.

    It'll be great if anyone can point me to the right direction.

    Scope of work:

    Living room

    1. 8ft suspended tv console (don't need feature wall) Range should be around 110-140 per ft run. depend on the design. base on mind range, 120 per ft. 8ft will be 960.

    2. L-box for dining and living area. hmmm, should be less then 1000 ba.

    BR1

    3. 2ft by 3ft side table with drawers hmmm, should be 250 t0 300 per side tabe.

    MBR

    4. 14 ft (L) x 1 ft (ht) bay window storage (drawers & open storage) hmmm, 1 ft H how to do drawer and open storage the same time?

    5. Study table over bay window area hmmm, said tt you need bout 6 ft longfor the table, should be 900 ba.

    6. 14 ft x 2 ft L-box

    Bathroom

    7. Vanity cabinet depend on what kind of top you looking at.

    8. Top hung cabinet range should be 110-140 per ft. u do the maths

    Misc

    9. Painting of whole house 5 room, 1200-1500.

    10. Electrical works since yours is DBSS, should only need light fitting and simple labour job. 400-1000. see what you need to do end of the day

    11. Routing of LAN cables (cable, termination plate provided by me) labour plus wire only.

    Thanks!! :drunk:

    HOPE this help

    your quote seem quite high. if you already know what to do to your new house, get a contractor will be much cheaper. my house was done by a contractor as i already had an idea of the designs. for the 5 items stated in "Professional Services", you are able to get it cheaper by consulting a freelance designer or drafter who will provide you with the drawings you need to go to a contractor. As all ID firms will urge to close deals pretty badly, they always make these services seem very expensive, which is actually not true. i only pay less then a thousand for that. i can intro you my drafter. Need pm let me know ba. best part, no GST! lol. cheerz. happyRENOV


  19. Hi

    Any1 knows how much it cost for ID to produce the 3D impression of the design?

    Does contractor provide such a service?

    Hi,

    normally ID will charge about 500 to 1k for 3D drawings if you are not using their services for renovation. most of them will want you to place a deposit of about 1k for them to go ahead with the 3D drawings for you. However, contractors usually dont come with this service. Alternatively, you can look for freelance drafters to do the drawings for you before you decide which ID firm or contractor to go for. I did so previously, the designer cum drafter helped me with the drawings and with all the designs ready, I went to different ID firms and contractors to find the best price.

    If you are interested, I can give you the contact of the drafter. Just let me know if you need it. Will PM you.
