thanks Mickey..

actually have been lurking in RT for awhile and when saw ur plan for ur new home, was really impressed and like the rest, can't wait to see the end result. and ur 'starry' lights are very nice..

hubby and i actually went to artemide to chk out their lights, loved every single one of them but every single one costs way more than what i am willing to pay.. although hubby wud prob have bought one or two if left to his own devices.. :P

thanks Moku mama.. ya a lot of hacking plus other things involved so costs quite a bit.. also flat is in kinda bad condition n whole house walls have those uneven surface which was popular in the 80s (or was it 90s...), so need to plaster whole house.. :bangwall:

but we met with a few IDs mentioned in RT but they gave us quotes which were higher than Intra (surprisingly..)..

currently everything coming up to about $45k inclusive of electrical.. :o:unsure:

but costs still adding cos we adding a bit here n there.. :P

Hi butterfingerzz, I viewed a flat with identical layout to yours when I was searching for mine. It is quite near to Pasir Ris MRT. We did not get it eventually because the owners were asking for quite a high COV.

All the best to your reno :)
