Bachelorette's Pad
hahaha. When we were given the two book of samples, we almost fainted. So many...see until my eyes crossed. Dun be pai say to use your coin or pen to do a 'scratch test' on those samples. We were so totally lost and confused with those laminates that we even went down to their factory/showroom to ask for advice. In addition, seeing the big piece of laminate can also help you make that decision. Once laminate is up, too late to change your mind liao hor.

Comfort Furnishing sells quite a bit of designer replica but it's not very cheap too lah. Stone they dun carry but Louis Ghost n Victorian Ghost is about $180-250 if I am not mistaken. Why dun u wait for their sales? It can go as low as 30-40% discount. In fact, the sales could still be on now. Did you check?

Thanks a zillion **Blush Blush** Ya, one of my fren tot we spent 40K on reno. wahaha. Think he not familiar with market price also cos actually our place reno is quite simple actually. We 'glam' it up with fixtures maybe? I bought my lights from a couple of places. Which is the light you keen to know? Lemme know and I will reply u asap

Boutique Design Home...our Dream Segar
Fixtures means lightings, taps, sinks, etc etc. The voodoo knife was bought overseas...It think its about S$200 bah cos this is the crome version. I think Singapore sells the red version which several forummers also bought from Raffles City. Our contractor is Ho Bee. He came highly recommended in this forum and after using him, I can surely agree with them more. No major issues from them. However, do note that you must have an idea what you want before you engage contractors. They are not designers. They will not give you design ideas. However, if any of your suggestion may pose some issues, he will high-light to you one...This we were appreciatative. Please keep us posted in your process and let us in the forum know if we can help in anyways. By now, many of us already know where to get the better deals from some items

Yes, always have some buffer for your reno cost. Things always change along the way. If 20K is what you budgeted for, then perhaps your reno quote should aim for 18K. Plus minus, will reach around 20K +

Boutique Design Home...our Dream Segar
Hi ashes02, 21K +/- is for the carpentery, reno cost, plumping and lighting point works. It excludes the fixtures hor. In addition, it did not cover our toilet tiling work which was done by another contractor and SUBSIDISE by HDB There were defects in the unit we bought, so the HDB council covered the expenses of our haulages and hacking. We merely top-up for the tiles...which we thought was extremely reasonable lah. Yes, the voodoo knife block has always been in our wish-list too but my set is a chrome (silver), not a red. Forgot to change the colour when I posted the video. I think the chrome one is more stylo-milo and it suits our red and silver kitchen theme. We will be having stainless steel as the back-splash, so the chrome voodoo will sit pretty with that background

Door Bells
Hey, thanks for the info. May I ask...hope I do not sound stupid. Is there such a door bell that is wired kind but runs with batt? Meaning, I will still be using the default bell button outside my unit but the set itself needs to put batt.
