Goodday all, Any reviews on Air Cooler on any particular brand? Was thinking of getting Sona. TIA

From the period of 1999 - 2005, I've travelled afew days to Melbourne,Sydney and Brisbane. Staying at Hotel and Apartment due to work and I wanted that kind of tourist feel/hotel/apartment look. As such the living room and dining, I decided to have an 'Evergreen Wallcoverings' and it works.. However, drawings and reality wont be the same. Though there's some changes to be made.. stay tune.

Goodday All, The moment that I've been waiting for after back and forth with ID on the look that we could have within our budget. ' The drawings'! Drawings credit to 96 Degree Designers for copyright usage.

Laminate Floor Tiles : Lime Oak Goodrich Wallpaper for Living room and Dining area

Bought the same lights as my ID showroom. Average price saw from some of the lighting stores is at $200plus. Also bought other lights for the kitchen, bedroom and toilets. Manage to get at Hoe Kee (Tanjong Katong Complex next to First Lady) at $198. The 3 bedroom lights are LED with control at $148 each x 3. Kitchen Light at $48 x 1. Toilets Light at $35 x 2. In total $760 nett. Ask to round off at $700 and the boss agreed

Went shopping with the ID at Haffary to choose tiles.

Final layout of the floor plan. I make my kitchen smaller to give way to dining area. The floor have to elevate the same height as the living room. I guess this concept is quite common for standard layout.

As my budget is $30k, i try myself to control on things that are not necessary. However reading forums, magazines, getting ideas from posts photos...just too much poisons. Good thing is my ID will work out something within budget but in reality, resale 4room min not possible to achieve $30k on current conditions Have the dream to have theme like French Style / Scadinavian / Traditional European. But i think and think $30k where got enough! Can fly kite... So i decided to follow the flow of what my budget can do... Along the way i will try to share of any price changes and the things i bought.

Just to highlight homeowners, do check on quoatations given though price is attractive. For example : Supply labour and install...etc.This somewhat did not include materials. It should be Supply labour, materials and install. Thus minus off the materials, price will be more attractive. Unless materials would be under separate cost. Note to myself.

these are the current state of the house. Everything need to be hack/plaster and seal the entire house. Except that the living room and the 3 rooms i decided to overlay laminate tiles in order to save costs.

Floor Plan

Hi all, It's been awhile reading through posts/discussions and informations that relates on shelter over our heads. So i guess i too would like to share my journey.. This is my 3rd house and i think probably will be the final one till i retire. Most of the quotations from ID/Contractor is pretty competitive with this and that packages. As for my 4rm resale flat, an average of $50k and above are just basic reno. All of us have our dream home design theme BUT that comes with a price tag. Not much resources or samples that i can refer for 4rm resale flat. Time is kinda tight as i'm doing contra. So die die have to move out by eve of Christmas this year. I've got a few quotes, some from RenoTalk, a friend whom decided to start renovation company and those reno contractor shops at hdb areas. At least an average of $45K for a resale 4rm renovation. These of course just not finalise and they yet to see the conditions of the house, which i think its a nightmare. As my 1st appointment at HDB is somewhere last Sept, we came across RenoTalk roadshow at HDB hub. A few of the IDs' have pretty good offer. So me and my wife decided to check one of the IDs' for their Kitchen promo. Not bad of a deal 10ft top/bottom with Free Aerogas Hob Hood and Sink at $2,688. As we decided to took up the kitchen promo, we might as well get them for the entire renovation. So the journey begins..

This is my first time using them. My first 2 house was a different contractor. 1st house : less then $20k (2005) Punggol 21(4room) 2nd house : less then $30k (2008) Bedok (3NG) 3rd house and soon to be : less then $40k (2015) Bedok (4NG)

Hi, My ID is David Lee and is supervise by Jason Tan. So far so good. Good knowledge and experience. The reason we choose them is, they're on the same direction as I am. Understand my budget. Reason things out that i can't have everything for $30k. Especially the condition of the resale flat..definitely have to stretch here and minus from there..to me all ID is an artist to their own style but they must have the click and same page as you, I think that's important..

Hi, I'm using their service for my 4room resale flat. Renovation will took place tentatively 23rd Nov 2015. This Friday gonna meet up to choose kitchen cabinet laminate color and stuff. Already choose tiles with them at Hafary (Balestier). So happened I came across Renotalk roadshow at HDB Hub and they have kitchen promo at pretty decent deal.
