if u got energy, why not its really cheaper. labour in s'pore is pretty ex.

but if your wall bery 'mor-peng', u need to plaster first.. this one i think need some 'gongfu'... maybe ask professionals to do better.

lol.. it's a new unit....

jus afraid got patches

if you have the patience and time, you can DIY by all means

just have a piece of fine sandpaper and a scrapper on hand

use the scrapper to remove any protruding bits and sand down the wall

use putty to fill up any holes or cracks

and you can paint liao

How about if my walls & ceilings are still very good condition,

but I want to change the colour, do I just need to

sandpaper it?

the x owner stayed for 3 yrs, I dont know when were

they last paint it. What brand is good and economic?

can u recommend a good contractor to do it since doing

ceiling is quite a tough job.

Thank u

hmm 'very good condition' is rather subjective

as long as it's a smooth surface you can just paint over it

go get a copy of the 2008 ICI catalogue, there's a step-by-step guide at the back showing you how to DIY a paint job

personally, i'm using 3-in-1 medifresh from nippon coz of the anti-bacteria quality

economic wise just go for the basic range from either nippon or ICI, both are the same to me

i used ho bee for my home and i have to say they did a great job

price is $90 / day excluding cost of paint

took them almost 12 days to complete my unit of 134sqm !!
