Featured Replies

Hi!

Finally! After months of deliberation...decided to contribute after receiving much help and ideas.

Inspired by another member's blog whose original unit and condition was very much like ours.

Don't know whether hubby and I are 2 kiasu ppl or not but we have already decided on

our contractor - Basic Image Interior Design.

1st appointment will only be on 29 April 2010. Expected date to receive keys is 1 June 2010

of which reno is planned to start almost immediately.

Hi Alden,

Our place is near the CC. We r still negotiating w Mr Yeak. At the moment it's abt 50k. Is it a standard amt nowadays if redoing whole house w no design? Simply basic stuff!

ic...mine is @600plus....finally today i have complete my first appointment.... can share what u intend to reno for your hse..?

Congrats! So when is ur 2nd appt? Condition of ur house? M hacking everything as the place is badly maintained. U will agree when u c the picts- will do it when i get the keys. However, m thinking of making another door to the kitchen frm the utility rm since m oredy xtending the latter.

Awning, flooring, plastering, kitchen, 3 toilets n all the basic stuffs. No design.

Have u got an ID or contractor?

Ooh...I am staying near 888 plaza now :P

Hi,

I'm also an EM soon to be owner. 50k is cheap, do u have any capentry?

My quotes basically all came back in the 70 - 80k+ region. Still waiting for Basic (Mr Yeak) & ID Note (Henry) to quote but dunno whether they are serious abt quoting or not. Keep telling me a least 2 weeks but the others have more or less given me the quotations in a week.

My unit requires a major overhaul as the condition is pretty old.
