Hi,

My wife and I have been viewing the forum for over 6 months now. We are looking for recommendations for a experienced contractor and in the process of getting a few quotes. We would however like to get advice from people who are more experienced from Renotalk.

1. We are a new home owner and we just repurchased a repossessed flat from HDB, so the house in fact is very old and very bare, in fact it is empty. We would need new contractor to do Everything i.e. kitchen, carpentry, electricity, toilet, air con etc... We are clueless where to start!

2. We are hence looking for an experienced contractor - those who are willing to do major overhaul. At least there no need to have any hacking! We have a good idea what kind of theme to have (Modern Resort) but need good tips on how to make it practical and liveable for ~6 people. So far we are attracted to the teak-like/birch veneer furniture in IKEA

3. As we are a young couple, our savings are limited (and need to save for wedding too!) so we want contractors who are able to give reasonable quotes. Also, we did not consider ID to save costs?! Will the costing be very different?

Please help if you have a good contractor to recommend or any good tips to share! Thanks!

Thanks! We have been getting some quotes but the prices are from high 30s to above 40k. Is this normal for a 4NG of 98sqm?

These includes kitchen overhaul, toilet overhaul, laminate, all 3 rooms carpentry for wardrobe, bay window drawers and work tables for 2 rooms

Not sure if the budget fits!

The pricing shd be within those range. Wat u can do is to remove some of the items that may nt be necessary. Work within ur budget. Juz try n call him for a quotation. If its nt up to ur expectations, then kip on searching. Gd luck

Id recommend Sunny Ho from Thian Ho Renovation Contractor. Price is reasonable n u can easily forge a gd chemistry wit him. U can make apptmnt wit him @ 84055892. No harm givin it a try.

you registered yesterday and have 6 post just to self advertise???

Well Zhiz, this is my 3rd reply to u. I guess ure stereotyping all newbies who recommend their contractors as "self advertising"?
