My studio apartment is small ... less than 380sq ft.

Contractor quoted me $6.8k for

a feature wall with built-in storage, c/w mirror

a glass partition between living area and bedroom

plus painting (the most 2 walls only!)

plus wiring/lighting

Is it reasonable?

This is my first time (owning a place and reno).

What should I be looking out for?

I do not want to be 'sotong' and get 'chopped'.

Appreciate advice(s) from all the 'old birds' here

It seems quite ex for me.

My contractor quoted $800 for a feature wall, and $3K for entire house re-wiring. My painting cost $900.

And my house is about 5 times bigger.

To me, lightings can be bought reasonably from lightings.com.sg. If u want those nice chandeliers, u can set back about $200 (minimum). If it is just spot lights, 1 set cost about $18. typically, 4-6 sets u need. Since your studio is small, i take your glass partition like how a toilet partition would be. 2 glass panels. I was quoted about 800 (which was being commented high by RT-ers). Painting, i just divide by 5 for simplisticity. U probably will require < $4000.

I think la.. lol. I also not an expert! hahaha

U want u can try calling my contractor. Alan: 98892008. Check out my T-blog for the sliding doors we had for the room.

If u need anything more, PM me =)

You got Chopped! what u describe should cost around $2-3K depending on the size of feature wall n how much wiring n lighting done.
