Hi all,

I've been silent reader all this while and I must agree this is really a very informative reno forum! And yes, I am another Alanist. Hehe..

I've collected my keys in early Dec'13 and my renovation started in late Dec'13. Till now, my renovation is almost completed. I must say that I am quite lucky as there wasn't many hiccups in the process of renovation. When there is minor hiccup, Alan is usually fast in doing rectification. I usually do site visit like once or twice per week. I enjoy working with Alan and his team of sub-cons. I have talked to his tilers, electrician, carpenter and his Bangladeshi painter. They are all very friendly and soft spoken (especially Ah Gui, the carpenter). Ah Gui was telling me I was his fastest client. Usually carpentry discussion takes like 1.5 to 2hrs. For my case, it only take less than an hour. Haha!

Ok, before I go on further, let me share with you my floor plan and the original state of the house.

Following is the renovation plan. I have quite a lot of hackings and wall building.

And that's it for now. I will try to post the renovated photos ASAP. I am still doing the final cleaning up. Stay tuned...

Wow! A different floorplan from the usual 3rms! Nice!

You are one of the few which have good experience with Alan ...

Hope to see more updates soon.
