I asked my ID/direct factorycontractor that done my house to estimate your quote.  He said he probably can do it for about 32K to 33K with no gst, but must see your floor plan as some things guessimate.  see if you can press further. :) if not get more quotes, so many ID and contractors around, but it would be best to see their actual workmanships not showroom since price is not everything.

I can't comment much about other items as may not be comparing apple to apple, examples, one ID may quote you wardrobes/cupboards with internal carcass laminated but another ID may just leave it as white, different brands of laminate used by different contractors, can you customise the internal of the wardrobes like you want all drawers instead of shelving, etc. Even for paint, an ID may quote you using odourless paint while another ID may quote you non odourless. $1,650 for whole house with limit of 5 colours isn't really that cheap, & you may wish to check what range of the paint the ID using.

For plumbing works, I find it to be on the higher side. For example, $150 for installing accessories for 2 bathrooms, I got 2 quotes, the cheaper one is $80 (up to 7 items) & more exp one is $120 (up to 5 items only) for both bathrooms. The cheaper one for WC (toilet bowl) is $90 ea & that is the plumber removing it, likewise the plumber is going to remove my current basin, taps & toilet accessories as well. I saw your ID quoted demolishing of sanitary ware, usually sanitary ware refers to WC & basins, so why should the ID charge this when the job is to be done by the plumber, especially the plumbing works charges seem to be on the higher side? Sorry, it just doesn't make sense to me cos it seems like double charging, else installation fees should be much cheaper since the plumber doesn't need to remove the old ones.

Does your ID allow you to source for your own plumber? It may be more time consuming for you as you need to do the coordination works yourself but some IDs may charge certain "premium" for plumbing/electrical/windows, meaning it's not a direct charge as quoted by the plumbing/electrical/windows guy. 

If you need another ID for comparison, I can pass you my ID's contact. However, do note that my reno is only going to start end May, so I can't exactly say if is really good all the way until my reno completes. So far, he's been quite good & we feel safe with his recommendations as he has certain standards of his own, so he won't use those really cheap skate materials. Anyway, if you're still sourcing around, no harm getting another contact for comparison. Disclaimer: I'm not a ID self promoting my service/company, but a sahm starting my reno soon in end May.

Sorry I was very busy with work.  I will email you separately.  For those who PM me and I haven't reply them yet, besides whole house renovation, carpentry, etc., my contractor is the artist himself and personally drew artistic glass door designs like my door shown below.  Good Luck!large.IMG_5698.JPGlarge.IMG_5703.JPGlarge.IMG_5707.JPGlarge.IMG_5713.JPGlarge.IMG_5697.JPG
