Minor Renovation Quote Extension Of Current Kitchen

Featured Replies

I had several requests to see the work done by my ID. So I decided to upload it since I'm free.

I sourced for several IDs to extend my kitchen as I felt that my existing kitchen had not enough space to do things and the cabinets were too high for me. Also, I wanted to make a 3-in-1 tv console, book shelf and shoe rack and was not sure how to go about designing it. It was not easy as most IDs wanted to charge me 7-8k to do my kitchen and a tv console with shelving and wanted me to pay first before coming up with any ideas.

Eventually, I went with the ID who could meet my budget and even provided me some free 3D drawings to see what it would look like. This was the quotation.
