Do you have a full breakdown for each and every item? likedat difficult to see leh. From a rough gauge, i think its your carpentry with Anti Slam, that costs the most. Do you know the most ex is these hinges?

Hey Eric,

Try Edmund from DX Interior. I'm doing about the same amount of things as you and I got a rough quote of around that amount. But do note that mine is a 3 room flat.

Oh yes ... i thought of doing it all by myself...

i had gather quite a number of contractor for different typr of job from RT.

If given a chance, i can just go ahead without any ID.

hacking of floor and wall, i suppose we need a licensed HDB contractor right ?

Design-wise, you don't need a permit--I'm designing my house more or less by myself as well. But it's a bit harder, as you need to have a bit more of a working knowledge of what can and can't be done, what are the strengths and weaknesses of the materials you intend to use, as well as more planning required. The works itself you cannot carry out, they must be carried out by a HDB approved contractor. But the liaising with the various contractors (window and door contractor, tiler etc) you should be able to carry those out. Just make sure you are clear of the sequence of the works to be done la! Don't end up your electrician come after your false ceiling is up liao that kind of thing...

Hacking of floor and wall requires a licensed contractor. For wall, you will also need a permit.
