Just for reno, so far (I think I've stretched enough already) is about 25K tops. You may notice that my lightings are minimal though... no cove lights, spotlight or L-box at all except for 2 downlights at foyer area to bedrooms There are also no hacking done at all.Consist roughly of the following:- Flooring (homo + laminate)- kitchen cabinet- cornice full house- timber skirting- wall feature including tv console construction (tv console no pic yet)- shoe cabinet (no pic)- wardrobes and low cabinet for 2 rooms- tempered glass door for masterbedroom toilet- jacuzzi base construction- wrought iron windows- custom made single pull-out bed (no pic)- custom made computer table (no pic)- electrical- plumbing- paintingThose without pics are last minute addition because I am frustrated I can't find ready ones to my liking lor Initially only plan to do just simple reno to save cost hee.Altogether I'll be spending 40K (I allocate strictly this amount ) for this new place which includes the following- lightings + ceiling fan- bath accessories - jacuzzi- cooker, hood & hob- fridge, washing machine & dryer- samsung 32" R81 tv- island unit for kitchen consist of table & 2 stool (because don't intend to get dining set)- custom made cotton single mattress for my beloved mommy - custom made cotton cushion for low cabinet at bay window in master bedroom & also top of shoe cabinet- 3 seater + 2 seater + coffee table (good bargain from Picket & Rail warehouse clearance sale... all at less than $900. No pic yet because I requested the item to be delivered only in mid June after our house warming prayers on the 9th June)- queen size bed + mattress- curtains & rods (installing this weekend)- pillows + bolsters + bedsheets for all rooms from Aussino- shelvings for HHS cum storeroom- speaker/dock/clock/alarm/radio for my ipod because I need music in my bedroomMoney already put aside (from the 40K) but have not bought yet...- study table + chair + chest of drawers for niece room- carpet for the space in front of tv console- wall clocks- hunting for wooden mat <<< need to get out of Singapore for this !! ... trying JB if not have to fly to Sarawak !! - set of new plates & kitchen stuff - some knick knacks and miscellaneous items... not sure what yet but just put aside money lah. Anyway not so urgent stuff which slowly can look and buy since all basics got already.I have a small book which I carry everywhere to list down all my spendings and keep track of things Right now counting down to moving at the end of the month woohoo... very tired but cannot rest till dunno when. After move still have to unpack waa waa waaa .... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think $200++ including installation. Will check with my reno consultant because he is the one who changed the model at last minute for me because the lights for this fan is bigger compared to elmark. He also claimed he have to pay more but he absorb the cost. Saw the invoice but not my fault that he changed the model for me ehehe. The shop is somewhere in Jalan Besar... will let you know if I manage to dig more info soon. My house now very messy lah!From what I understand from the lighting shop, fanco as a product is good but not their after sales service. But since I bought it through my consultant... anything happen he is responsible lor wakakakakaka I saw your cute rugs applefreak. Look sooooo cuddly. I have 2 babies myself... but my girl is very old, frail and sickly already. But I still love her to bits and pieces and watever is left of her. Now I worried how the kitties are going to adjust to the new place... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lin_stapler 0 Report post Posted June 6, 2007 Been bz with moving and no internet connection at new place yet. Common toilet has serious leak and HDB has to hack my toilet to mend it In the end my place is dirty again .My internet connection will be up by this weekend hopefully and I can post more pics by next week I think.So to answer some questions ehehehe... very late already liao. Sori hor...Gas Heater - It can be boxed up in cabinet provided there is opening on the top and bottom for ventilation and using a cascading door for easy access. Read this from the flyer that City Gas sent me.Window Grill - Cost around $2500++ for my whole house around 22 panels (including bathrooms). According to my contractor, the wrought iron is galvanized so not easy to get rusty.Fanco Ceiling Fan with Lights/Remote - Mine is Aroma too... so far so good .Ok better not take too much company time to do personal things hee hee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PRGR 0 Report post Posted June 6, 2007 Hi, Can show the photo of the other side of your small practical kitchen? Would like to see how is it done becos i have second thought of doing both side of the kitchen becos it is small and may end up narrow. But on the other hand, afraid that may not have enough storage. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
