  1. 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...

  14. Hi, I recently bought a masionette at Tampines Court. It is 25 year old unit and needs some work done. A few questions: 1. The power sockets look old and this got me thinking if I should do a one time re wiring 2. I also want a plumber to come check all the pipes in the house in order to avoid a leakage in future 3. The owner has not installed any AC so I would need to install 5 units 4. Kitchen needs to be broken down and rebuilt 5. Need laminate flooring below and polishing of parquet on second floor 6. Toilet below and two toilets above needs to be broken down and rebuilt 7. Built in wardrobe for 3 rooms 8. Painting Where do I start? What should I do first? I know I can walk in and get quotations from an ID but some inputs for experienced owners who can guide me will be much appreciated. Thanks
  15. Hello All, I just signed the dotted lines for my property at Tampines Court. It is a maisonette and I need some serious renovation. Anyone here staying in Tampines Court who recently did renovation works? Any ID or contractors here who have carried out renovation work for Tampines Court? Please advise. Thanks
  16.

  17. Hi there, I just got my keys to my resale flat and I have actually been getting renovation quotes and surfing the net for ideas and reviews. Has anyone used D'esprit Interior before? Out of all the quotes, theirs is the most affordable and within my budget but I can't seem to find any reviews on them.
  18. I have an office of about 1000SQFT and want to convert it into a few smaller partitioned offices. To any reno firms who have expeirence in this - please let me know. To any other office owners who have experience in this - please advise. Thank you.
  19. Please do not be a victim of this company BSA Renovation Sdn Bhd (1072849-K) which the boss is called Ah Sheng. 96468805 singapore number or 17028840269 malaysia number. Apparently he has a local singapore business partner called Mr Sim dont know which company. the situation is like this: we were introduced to this carpenter by our ID and to begin with, he seems a nice person and promise us quality work and a reasonable quotation for it so we agreed. so reno kicked in and the progress was quite slow and work was only 90% completed right up to CNY. During this phrase, we noted that the work was really not as per what was mentioned and agreed and ah sheng got very defensive and his tone change with millions of excuses. He then rushed us for the remaining 50% payment which we refused due to incomplete and unsatisfactory work. Then he went on to threaten by saying he will tear down all if we do not make payment. so naively we agreed and he mentioned that the will complete the remaining works after CNY. We got a discount for some of the defects. He kept calling us daily chasing for payment and however, once we made the payment, he disappeared. Called him and he mentioned he is not going to do it as it was not part of the agreement and started denying everything. send him email and he act blur, call him and he say to ask us to find our ID. before that was telling us that he can be trusted etc. bottom line is dont bother working with this company as we heard from our ID that this company has also quite a few complains by her clients recently of such incidents.
  20. Hello to all Renotalkers! Greeting from a girl who simply love home decoration and renovation, learn and share some DIY tips with the others. Having read on so many sharing from other Renotalkers, I decided to share some of my little tips in this t-blogs as well. Hope everyone will enjoy reading it and please do feel free to share you ideas / thoughts here too! Here come's the first piece of my sharing... <Mirror mirror on the wall...> Mirrors are some of the most versatile items used in interior decorating, and when they are employed tastefully and creatively they can really transform the appearance of a room. There is a wide variety of mirrors of all shapes and sizes, so you will have choice whatever your budget and preferred aesthetic. With a little ingenuity, there are a number of ways you can use mirrors to give your house a new look. Enlarge a Room A wide mirror can work wonders to enhance the appearance of a room to make it appear more spacious. Hang a wide mirror high up on the wall by the dining table or in the living room, reflecting the interior and making it appear twice as large as it really is. Soften Corners If you have sharp corners in the house, whether due to the shape of your rooms or angular furniture, mirrors can help to soften them. For instance, positioning a round mirror above an angular coffee table can soften otherwise harsh lines considerably. Underscore Your Theme Mirrors come in all sorts of frames, and well-chosen frames can help to underscore your theme and create the atmosphere you are trying to achieve. If you want your interior to look rustic and inviting, mirrors in wooden frames can add to the warmth of your colour palette. You can even purchase or make your own frames to house your mirrors in. Experiment with Shapes Since mirrors come in every conceivable shape, from round or oval to angular or oblong, you can experiment with shapes to enhance the appearance of your space. For instance, if your space is very modern, a combination of oblong-shaped mirrors can contribute to the futuristic atmosphere. Combine Several Mirrors Use several mirrors in tandem to transform your wall space. Just as picture frames can be combined to produce elaborate wall-scapes, several mirrors can be grouped together to form a reflective collage. Hang Mirrors Alongside Picture Frames If you already have picture frames on the walls, mirrors can be interspersed amongst them to fill up space and to add completeness to an existing collage of picture frames. Match the frames of your mirror with your picture frames so they blend in seamlessly. Use Reflections Strategically Your mirrors should not be thought of merely as ornaments for the walls. You should also consider what is being reflected in the glass and use this to your advantage when positioning your mirrors. For instance, if your windows afford beautiful views, position your mirrors so they reflect the scenery. If you are fond of burning candles on a sideboard, a mirror placed just behind the candles can help to generate an evocative atmosphere. A mirror at the end of a hall can give the hallway a more extended feel. Use Other Reflective Items Creativity is key when decorating an interior, and there is a whole host of other items that can function as decorative mirrors. Sheets of aluminium and other metals are reflective and can produce interesting effects when used in interior decorating. Mirrors are extremely versatile and can be adapted to any kind of interior. When decorating your interior, using mirrors creatively can be the step that enhances and completes the look of your home. --- End --- You know what?
