Help - Renovation Budget For 4 Room Resale

Featured Replies

Hi guys,

Will need fellow forummers advise on how much I need to budget for my reno.

I have just bought a resale 4-room 4A flat - 105sqm.

Am planning to do a full reno for the place. Some considerations include:

1. Replacing all the 4 doors. The doors are "n" shaped, and I want to get regular rectangle shaped doors.

2. Does hacking costs a lot? I plan to have parquet floorings in all the bedrooms. Would I need to hack all the tiles, or would the contractors be able to only hack the bedrooms? Or it just makes more sense/economical to hack everything?

3. Redo both toilets and make it modern.

4. Kitchen, to hack away the current cabinets/ sinks, and redo new ones.

May I know how much should I roughly budget? Give and take 3-5K difference b/w different ID firms?

Thanks.

from the way u stated, u need a min of 35K.... dun forget the electricity. Plus the quality of ur tiles make a difference to the overall price.

Parquet flooring is more ex than laminated flooring. I would say, what you want to do will cost around the range of $40k.

I would guess 50k for reno and equipment like (light, sink, tap, doors and other that you never think of now)

3. Redo both toilets and make it modern. -- est $5k for 1 toilet (simple one , w/o what screen)

4. Kitchen, to hack away the current cabinets/ sinks, and redo new ones. -- est $15k for simple and very much depend on what type of material you use.

Oops.. mine was also a resale nut only 90sqm... 1 ID quoted $39K and another $29K..

let me describe what I wanna do.

1. Hack Kitchen and 2 toilets (basically renov includ wall tiles)

2. Feature wall for TV + console in Living room

3. Wardrobe in 2 bedrooms only
