Hi all, I've recently just booked my new 4-rm SBF flat and I'll be getting my keys soon. My flat does not comes with flooring for living room and 3 bedrooms. Only HDB default floor and wall tiles in kitchen and 2 toilets. I will be going for resilient vinyl flooring all living room and 3 BRs. Kitchen and toilet floor and wall I'm going for homogeneous tiles. I will be appealing for HDB cement screeding in order for me to lay the vinyl flooring. I will also plan to hack down partial of the kitchen wall and 1st bedroom wall. Can any laojiaos here provide me a checklist of the renovation process I should check or receive from renovation contractors? (not going for ID) Some people say flooring goes first, electricity goes first, wetwork/masonry works goes first, plumbing or aircon piping etc. But I am not too sure for my case. The renovation should involves the following, if I'm not wrong: 1) hacking of walls, 2) vinyl flooring installation / homo tiles overlaying, 3) aircon piping, 4) aluminium/glass work for hacked walls, 5) kitchen table top, 6) blinds, 7) electricity/lightings, 8) carpentry (kitchen cupboards, wardrobes etc) 9) painting (walls), 10) plumbing I'm not too sure which one should comes before/after each. Please feel free to add in to the checklist. For all your advices! Thanks.

Hello all, my first ever post, also the first home we have ever purchased. Am posting this first before trying out the "request for quote" feature of the site as i really am trying to avoid ppl calling me up when i am at work (+ having to explain to each caller what i want). So just wondering if anyone here can help out with a rough guesstimation of costs or if anyone out there is able to provide a quote based on our requirements. First and foremost, this build will have to be dictated by budget as we don't really want to spend too much. Here is our original floorplan. It's a 2 bedroom condo groundfloor apartment. In red are the walls i'd like to remove (which also means i need to relocate the DB box if that's possible) False ceilings to be hacked away also. And this is the proposed new layout i'd like (if budget wasn't a concern) The most important for us will be the work needed for the kitchen and toilets. The kitchen walls to be hacked away and to have an island to house the cooker as well as dining space. There is strangely a 3rd toilet in the yard. The proposal is to seal up the toilet entrance from the yard and to remove the wall that joins it to the common toilet, with a sliding door in place. The common toilet to be sealed up and to create a small walk-in-wardrobe area. I will not be needing shower facilities for the common toilet. The walls around bedroom 2 (or study), to be removed and to install either wire mesh grilles or black framed windows as a divider for just 1 side. (black thin lines behind couch) . Full height shelving (we have a somewhat decent height) for one of the study walls (+ ladder) Flooring we would like to have cement screed-look-alike homo floor tiles. Walls will be painted basic white with a wooden baseboard, ceilings to be white as well. To install polycarbonate awning (trellis) in patio. Wooden decking for patio also. Lights will be black track lights mostly and to have relite black fans in living room and study. (And if possible, the patio also) Airconditioning to be a 3 unit split for living room / masterbedroom / study

Dear All, I am seeking quote to mainly do carpentry work for the kitchen, living & bed rooms. I wish to understand if the following payment terms and conditions are normal and acceptable? The way I look at it is the ID has already collected 90% of the payment after the cabinet measurement. The ID explained that his carpenter will demand payment to buy the material before starting the carpentry work. Do you think this is fair? What are the payment terms that your ID laid out? Thanks. 1 Upon signing up this contract 15%2 Upon commencement of works 40%3 Upon measurement of carpentry work 35%4 On completion of works 10% N.B Compensation of 30% would be expected for any cancellation after signing the contract.We hereby agree and confirm acceptance of the price, layout terms and conditions statedabove by signing on the space provided below- by a 1st time home buyer

An acknowledgement to begin with...I owe this forum a blog since I have been greatly benefited by its contents in my own renovation journey. So thanks to everyone who have contributed here.. We bought a 5 room HDB at cantonment close...And our 1st task was to choose an Interior Designer. Did some research on this forum, facebook and websites of Interior designers in Singapore and shortlisted the following: 1. Arteliving - Recommended by a friend. Quote was 2nd highest. Slow to respond and hence rejected. 2. Weiken - Selected based on forum reviews (must admit reviews about his ID is mixed). rejected for no particular reason. 3. Rest n Relax - Contacted twice. Firm did not revert at all. 4. Triple S Interiors - Contacted twice. Firm did not revert at all. 5. Summit Design Studio - 3rd best quotation. Rejected for no particular reason. In fact obtained quote just for the sake of comparison. 6. ***** - Was shortlisted as Top 3. Could have selected but ultimately didn't since they didn't perfectly fir the bill. 7. Altier Tang - Was shortlisted as Top 3. Experienced designer, very knowledgeable but didn't select since the quote was on the higher side. 8. Renzz - Highest quotation (way above all others) naturally rejected. 9. Defong Trading - Selected for renovation. Best quotation (at least 10% below others). Kevin Tan was the ID (read a lot of good reviews about him in this forum). Very very impressive, very knowledgeable, very responsive. turned out to be the perfect choice for our renovation job. Our renovation comprised the following main tasks. Redoing whole of Kitchen and 2 bathroomsFeature wall/console, shoe, storage and display cabinet in the living roomFalse ceiling in the living roomPainting, redoing house grills and electricals.Note: We didn't go for any 3D designs. Whilst the designs give you an idea about how your house will look, in my opinion, they are overrated and the real output looks different from the designs since the designers do a good job of glamming up the 3Ds. that's my personal view and of course you are free to disagree which is fine. Kevin Tan was a thorough professional during the entire process of renovation. Absolutely helpful and very friendly & comfortable to deal with. Promised an end date and delivered bang on that date. Before and during the renovation process, Kevin accompanies us to select tiles and sanitaries. Gave good suggestions while selecting tiles (please only select homogenous tiles coz the others are crappy) and also during other stages of our house design. Not pushy, very very patient and super responsive. Very honest and straight to the point. Will highly recommend him to anyone. The thing which became apparent is, it doesn't matter which ID company or designer you select, it all depends upon how the workers are who do the job....and each ID has his/her own set of workers...so its important for the ID to have and maintain a good set of workers...in Kevin's case, he has a good team who did a nice job. At the end of it all, the house has come out very well and in accordance with our expectations. Will post pics soon for everyone to see and judge. To everyone who will go through this process...here is wishing you the very best and hope you end up having a house that you dreamt of....

Hi All, I'm getting my new hdb home 4room latest by June 2014 I guess... Will like to seek opinions & source for renovation quotation from you guys as well.. Like to know: 1) is it a must to use ID for renovating? looking for reliable & responsible contractors as well... 2) if no ID, is there any good contractor out there that does almost same work scope as the ID? 3) walk-in wardrobe in the bedroom is a must from my partner... looking to spend around $20k, will it be enough...? 4) already opted for flooring & doors done by HDB which I think may be a mistake to do that on my part but already done.... 5) need help from you guys to recommend me reliable IDs & Contractors for these... 6) please leave contact or website if any as well.. Please post your comments or pm me if u like. Thank you very much...

Hi All, I am in the process of purchasing the recess area outside my old flat and HDB has already responded. So now I am seeking for an electrical contractor to relocate the electrical meter outside my main door. Also seeking reno quotation to build up the wall, including 25 glass blocks and install fire-rated door frame and door. Floor lamination needed as well. Thanks. Rgds Mr Sim
