Allo 0 Report post Posted March 19, 2007 Hubby and I met Benedict for the quotation yest. Can say we are pretty satisfied. Final quote was 28K. We were thinking we will go for him if he could include a false ceiling for the living area for 29K. Haiz.. just couldn't accept if there isn't cos our living/dining is very empty. We are having a tv/entertainment room in our study room as our "living" so the initial living area will only have a dining table. Hope he can adjust the cost to our request.He should be able to. False ceiling in living room alone won't cost $1K. !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nunu 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2007 (edited) We met up with Benedict for a more detailed quotation last weekend. Hmm.... did fall within our budget though the cost of electrical works are not added in yet. He will emailing us the final quote within this week. True that his price falls in the average range and we didn't bargain. After reading some post, I was thinking if the price he quoted for the glass backsplash is a little too ex. It's $450 to run between the kitchen cabinets of 13 ft. We will be taking our time to source for furniture now cos only starting reno in end may or start of june. Yippie, getting the keys this sat. Will post some pics after the visit Edited March 27, 2007 by nunu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will post some pics after the visit Hello nunu... good if the quote is within your range but have to be careful as some other cost will creep in..electrical + lighting is one major item that can set u back by 2 to 3k..all the best..post picture for us to see..

nunu 0 Report post Posted May 27, 2007 Finally my reno works are starting tomorrow. Can't wait to see an empty house turning into a home. Think I'll pop by to kpo abit. Btw, these are the lights I bought for my place. The missing dining light is a ball of glass trumpets and also squarish downlights.
