wah.... very tough. Baring a miracle

to cut costs

1. Overlay floor and wall(toilet) tiles

2. kitchen wall - cement over and paint.

3. Might have to give up plastering + cornice (if thats what you are referring to)

4. Paint yourself

Bearing in mind the sure to incur hidden/additional costs, when asking for quote state $11,000 to absorb all those surprises...

how about your water pipes ?

rough quote for my in laws 4 room :

kitchen bottom cabinets

kitchen wall floor tiles

2x toilet wall floor tiles

change all cast iron sanitary pipes in both toilets and kitchen to PVC

works include dismantling and hacking of existing tiles and cabinets

the above already amount to $10k+ liao

?? What you intent to do??? Kitchen cabinet, wardrobe, vanity cabinet,

I just want kitchen cabinet only.Cos i don't intend to renovate any other room

1. Overlay floor and wall(toilet) tiles

may be I can do overlaying of laminate in living room to cut cost.right ?? save at least few hundreds???

but overlaying kitchen and toilet very dif I feel cos its very old( those original cond with 1/2 of wall white tiles)(25 year old flat)

Came up with this budget cos see many advt I offer kitchen and 2 toilets renovation for resale flats offer ~$9k :unsure:

4. Paint yourself

never done before :)

Yes u can overlay, save quite a lot. U can also try using vinyl flooring.

but overlaying kitchen and toilet very dif I feel cos its very old( those original cond with 1/2 of wall white tiles)(25 year old flat)

Don't recommend to overlay unless you want to consider what I had done for my kitchen and toilets floor.

It normal but may have hidden cost.

Then don't do it.

$13K is possilbe in this case if not doing wardrobe, vanity top and cabinet.

rewire for 3 room prob 1k thereabouts...the expensive part i thk is the light points...if u wan to fix downlights etc...that wil take up alot of pts and each pt cost min $30...

overlay laminate is a good budget alternative....now they come w 10yr -15 yr warranty shd b quite ok..

cabinet is ard 90 -140...solid top prices start fr $70...

Set aside $1K for rewiring, it should be more than enough.
