Hi joan, my comments:

Price for tiles are ok... but now with the compulsory pre-packed screed ruling you may also consider getting laminate or vinyl flooring for the bedrooms.

Not sure why the id quote you "24 ft" of solid surface kitchen worktop. Usually 10-15 ft would do. But price in terms of per foot run is ok - at $80 pfr. You may also want to consider other materials for kitchen worktops, such as granite, quartz, kompacplus etc, if heavier cooking is involved. Meanwhile, consider doing some form of backing for the cooking area of your kitchen wall.

For the quotation of casement wardrobe (i.e. the doors open outwards), the price can get you sliding ones if you prefer that. I like how the id termed soft closing hinges as "motion control system". :P

Do continue to look for more quotes and compare the items quoted. All the best!

ohhh i see, other than the casement wardrobe everything is fine i presume?

hi ,

think d price ok, plus minus 1-2k...at least not those people 29k,32k....
but kitchen top 24ft so long? use quartz its better....scratch n heatproof...

wardrobe can go for sliding too.....

kitchen cabinet better to use blum hinges, my friends one, already spoil after 1 year.

any free gifts haha? my contractor comes with hood, hob, toilet accessoiries total to $5k.

check with him la. as long as u are comfortable n happy, ok liao.

take care....

hi,

the price for wardrobe is a bit high..

so far more or less about d same price as a contractor that i met.
