If you are doing quite a bit on fixtures then will be more expensive due to it is make to measure.

also set aside ur about 2K for your lightings, lighting point, cable point (if need to shift) and wiring.

Hi, Guys.

I always heard fellow friends says that, it is always good to keep around $1k to $2k for lighting.

Is that true? What are the other thing that I had to come out with cash during the renovation period. Doing my renovation early next year, so I am recce-ing around =)

Thanks alot.

window8, it would be good to ask around for quotations from contractors....tat would be a gd gauge....

however, as per ur list below and dependent on the material cost (according to wat kind of material u choose), on a safe bet, u need to set aside at least about 25k to 30k....

I got mention as above on the lighting part. For advise would be 2K. Things keep increasing but no salary. sigh~~

During renovation period there are a few things need cash -

1) Kitchen

- hob and hood

- kitchen basin

- tap

- fridge

( check the measurement first then ask ur ID/contractor to do the measurement, if you want to do base for your fridge. )

- washing machine and dryer (if needed)

( check the measurement first then ask ur ID/contractor to do the measurement, if you want to do base for your washer and dryer. )

2) Air-con ( must know what system and how many compressor you want. Eg . system 4 for all the rooms and one for the living room)

Others like living room and bedroom all depends on the design which you liase with your ID/contractor.

Do remember that if anything which is required to build then you need to get it first.

Ok, I see. Intend to buy bit-by-bit. So son't need to outlay so much cash when the time comes.. . .

Thanks anyway for yr suggestions.

By the way, anyone had any idea what other item does BTO flats comes with apart from the doors which I bought and the done-up flooring. . .

I was wondering does it comes with sink, taps and etc.

How about toilets, we install our own sink too?
