    Hi,

    I have similar problem - sewage smell in toilet, but can't detect actual location where it came from. My ID told me to pour bleach into the drainage holes (the cover with lots of small holes, no sure what it's called) for wait for a day. Seems not much improvement. Also bought and used drainage cover, which blocks the drainage with an additional internal cover. Seems to have improved abit although we are not so sure too.

    So does pouring in hot water or bleach/detergent + hot water help? Do I pour inside the drainage holes or into the toilet bowl?

    Thanks!

    Thanks guojiawen!

    Been too busy with lots of big and small things.

    I'll discuss a bit with the IDs which I contacted ...

    First one I contacted was Manaf from Designer house. Guess most of you in this forum heard of them. It's closed to my place so I visited them to discuss abt what I want to do. Manaf was attentive and he told me he'll give me a quotation next wk, cos he's busy right now. After a week, he whatsapp me saying he'll give me a week later ... and then no news after that. Was a bit disappointed since the 1st impression was good.

    Next was Zack from I-deal house. Similarly, attentive and he also gave some good suggestions. Unfortunately, his quotation was way too high, 1.5 times compared to the others. So of cos, I didn't look for him.

    The 3rd was Javerson from Dot N Tots. He's young and energetic. Maybe not as experienced compared to some others but he seems sincere and attentive. However, he shows that he still knows his stuff well when I made some mistakes in my suggestions.

    Next was Vincent from AP logic. From his talking, he's experienced and he also give some useful suggestions. Considered him till the end but maybe the chemistry isn't there.

    The 5th is Justin from AL Render. Also an experienced guy but maybe I don't like the way his quotation is laid out. He groups all the hacking stuff together and I am not able to compare the cost directly with others. Also not much chemistry.

    The last is Sebasten from Frontier concept. He's the guy who discuss the longest with me. He's more assertive but he also many useful suggestions too. We discussed twice for 2 hrs each and he's very detailed in his discussion. However, he kept on delaying giving me his quotation. He 1st said within 2-3days. Then no news. Called him since I feel that I should give him another chance. He told me he's on reservist and his secretary cock up... then he said he need to go jb last min ... can't believe he can give so many excuses.

    So in the end, it's Javerson from DnT! Let's hope everything proceeds smoothly!

    Hi,

    Got my keys on 20th May. It's indeed quite stressing looking around for IDs.

    Was actually thinking of do this do that ... estimated 20k.

    However, some turn of events (it's a secret!) cause us to lower our budget quite a bit to around 11+ k.

    Finally finalized on Javerson Wee from Dot N Tots Interior as our IDs. Was introduced to him thru sforshor's posting. He was patient and despite our budget reduction, he's still happy to accept our job!

    Javerson told us our job is small, hence 3 - 4 wks should be enough. Can't wait to see our complete home!

    Let's hope everything goes smoothly!

    Hi,

    I need to do partial renovation for my resale flat. After reading thru this forum, I selected some IDs and contractors. I have met up with some and emailed all my floor plan and what I want to do briefly.

    I'm now waiting for them to give me a quote.

    So what's after this? I'll be getting my keys next month. I have a no. of questions.

    1. How should I finalize on who to choose. I understand that price is a concern, but I can't just rely on price alone, right?

    2. Do I have to bring them to the house to see to get a more accurate quote?

    3. Will I be getting a 3D drawing / picture etc from both contactor / id?

    4. After I confirmed my ID / contractor, do I finalize the design and sign contract at this stage? Or select materials 1st?

    5. What is the norm to the deposit / payment? What is the percentage to give at different stages of the renovation? Heard from many ppl that if given full amt too early, some ID / contractors may work slowly or even disappear....

    Can it be discussed or each company got their own policy to follow?

    6. Lastly, usually at which stage will I be told that the budget / quotation has increased?

    Thanks!
