  1. Thanks for the tip. Have you tried ice price?
  2. Hi MHB, You bought taps from insani? Is the shipping fee reasonable? And are the taps useable in Singapore? I heard the European taps require a special adaptor which isn't widely available here.
  3. Hi Angel, Which website did you buy your Hong Kong downlights?
  4. Can you share your contacts bro??
  5. Can I also have the pm for the lighting? Thanks!
  6. Hi, thanks for your quotation. Would you be able to reveal your company name or possibly website? I would like to see your portfolio. ^^
  7. Where did you buy the strips?
  8. Hi, I love your sink! What are the dimensions?
  9. Hi, Like all here, I'm very tired and busy after a hard day at work. I hate doing dishes. Do they work well? I've heard mixed stories. Some tell me they work well and that you just need to scraped the food remains off before washing them. Some swear off them...
  10. Steven, I'm in the same process as you are. Shall we chat over PM and share the contacts and names of the IDs?
  11. Yeah, I like to know too. How much is the iQuartz?
  12. Hi, when you mentioned $120 pfr for the kitchen wardrobe, did you include the countertop material? Anyway, can you share the indicative prices for the various materials? solid surface granite Quartz SilesStone (Made in Spain) CaesarStone (Made in Israel) Samsung (Made in Korea?) Thanks!
  13. While the company indicated that there would be a 3-10% discount, the price is still a bit too steep. Furthermore, I don't like this practice of giving a discount when obviously they've over quoted.
  14. Hi, Do you guys have any thoughts about the above quotation? Granted that I am doing a fair bit of hacking and stuff, but i think the carpentry cost is crazy. $4000 for a wardrobe?? Space planning and consultation for $1500? And the cove lighting and false ceiling for master bedroom at $2,100??? I got a quote for false ceiling for the whole house for $2,600 from a contractor mentioned here. I don't think it should be $54,000. What do you think is a reasonable amount? Thanks!

  15. Agree. I like this laminate too. By the way, is that real wood for the vanity top? Wouldn't it rot with all that water in the bath? I wanted the same look but the id advised against it.
  16. Bro, Can you please send me some quotes for the installation of downlights? What are the brands and prices? Do you have philips downlights as well? By the way, do you handle the installation of false ceiling as well? Please give me quote for that too.
  17. Hi, what kind of window did you install? Laminated or double glazed? Can you post a picture?
  18. Dear all, This is my first blog entry. Like all, I've begun meeting IDs. 1) BXXX XXXXXX Studio I found this company through googling. I realised many of his ex-customers praised him to the heaven for his creativity. So, I was rather determined to meet him. It's run by a bloke called 'BXXXXX'. However, due to his hectic schedule, my meeting was cancelled twice. Finally, after I explained my displeasure, they relented and squeezed a schedule in at the last minute. His designs were the conventional and typical ones that you see. He was very focussed on fashioning a TV feature wall and we did not even manage to finish talking about the house after two hours. We reminded him to talk about the overall items, but he kept bringing our attention back to the feature wall again. We couldn't understand his obsession with the wall. :-( Anyway, it was not a fruitful discussion at all. We strongly believe you need to focus on the overall theme and feel and go through each room slowly for coherence of theme first. The TV feature is not the be all and end all of the house. 2) Rest & Relax 3) De Style 4) Fuse Concept
  19. How long before key collection do you guys normally engage a designer?
  20. Hi, can you PM me your contact?
  21. Hi, My ID quoted me the construction of L 11ft suspended TV console using solid-ply laminate c/w internal polyester... @ $2,220 Is this material okay? What other material should i consider? Is this price excessive? Sounds rather expensive to me...
  22. Excellent post! It's one of the most useful ones i've seen here.
  23. Hi, that sounds like a good suggestion. However, do you know where i can get a pressure gauge and how many bars would be optimal?
