I just need to do up the decking, lightings, curtains & laminate the bay window in the master bedroom.

Can someone recommend me contractors for these?

Many thanks!!

Basically I got 2 design issues, I don't know what to do with the master bedroom and the bay windows. The bedroom is so small and doesn't even have space for a wardrobe, so the bombshelter serves as its wardrobe. Then the living room is so small, I do not know where to put the dining table. So jialat.

I got a quotation for decking of the planter box - $1000 excluding GST. Sounds like very ex when it is just a l-shape planter box? Prices are so crazy nowadays???

Hi and welcome to Renotalk.

I recently renovated my one bedroom and definitely noticed a tendency for contractors and ID quote higher when compared to same scope of work for hdb.

Also probably because condo is much stricter about contractors strictly keeping to 9-5 working hours on weekdays only.

ie there's a "premium" to be paid for reno based on address. Best to take time to shop around based on your budget.

Good luck!

Welcome to RT.

Think you should get those small table that can extend or fold into the wall like my friend's.

But there are pros and cons and you will need to see which you prefer.

Nice....I like the balcony and the open view. Let me guess...Spottiwood residences?

Currently I am staying at a studio, so space management is vital. Since space is limited, I just have to learn not to hoard things.

Congrats on your new pad.

Agree. Reno quotes are marked up for condos. Contractors admit that, giving reasons (excuses?) like concealed pipes and wiring, non standard ceiling height.

Thats what i heard from a friend too, however I think its quite BS.

That is the lowest quote i have got leh. Some others even quoted me $1200-1300+. **** jialat.

Anyone got cheap & good contacts instead?
