Hi all,

Im new to this forum. I do need some advise on the quotation below quoted by my contractor.Supposed to do a simple reno on a 5 room resale flat.In fact,just the kitchen and some minor hacking. When i look at the quotation and compared to others, something is not right... I find that the cost of supply n installation of cabinet is very high.(although it is the anti-slam system). Hope to get some advise and opinions. thanks in advance :)

The solid surface you getting is those LG Brands ones? Because the solid surface cost able to let you have Granite Top already..

Way to expensive..

pls look again, it's 28ft top & bottom.

Top 28ft

bottom 28ft

total 56ft

i think you had it wrong. its 28ft in total cos the solid surface is only for 13ft... so if 28ft top and 28ft bottom, what happen to the 15ft top? no solid surface or anything?

so, its definitely expensive! mine was only $120psf

hehe.......

If it's 28Ft for Top and Bottom, it's really expensive for the kitchen cabinet, and the solid surface is very high too!

Total price of my cabinet is plus anti slam 23ft - $3833. Borelli Solid Surface 14.5 ft - $1088... Is there a diff in material? Seems like your is way too expensive...
