Got a quotation from Summit Design at the previous fair in Expo also. Think their quotes quite reasonable compared to other IDs. But, I didn't let them do my reno because i let my relative do it.

Sorry ppl. I was too busy renovating my house and didn't login for some time. Hmm... someone mentioned about the defects. Basically, it's the best that you submit the defect list within the first 7 days. The contractors will repair it for you in 2 weeks. Otherwise you might run into...

Hi, I'm back. Managed to settled some issues with HDB over the defects of the house. My cousin's husband is handling my renovation so he checked my house for me. I never noticed there are so many problems. Here are some things to check when you get your keys - Check the locks, make sure no...

Finally getting my keys tomorrow... Btw, if you believe in fengshui, try this ... http://www.geomancy.net/consultation/consult-home/gettingkeys.pdf

hi jess82, My flat is at blk 989C at St93. Ours got delayed by a week because the customer manager told us that our case need to be reviewed before releasing the keys. A friend of mine whose Q no. is 200+ got their keys on 14 Nov. My Q no. is 250+ and will get ours on 23 Nov. Good luck!

I'll be getting my keys on 23 Nov. Trying to work out the renovation now...

Oh, we went shopping for lights as well. We went to 2 shops opp Chinese Gardens MRT and the prices are quite reasonable like what others had mentioned here. Designs looks quite simple, so don't bother to go there if you are looking for fanciful ones... But, found that their ceiling fans are...

WinningEleven, i also went to IMM to gather some package info. But, most of the time, i find a lot of things included are very minor and they shouldn't be breaking the cost up (e.g if they dirty my floor, then will have to clean it. Don't tell me they need extra $$ to remove them etc). So, i...

We have been shopping around for renovations also. But heard that the prices have increased quite a lot... mainly because of year end and many ppl want to rush to complete their renovations before CNY.... So far, we have asked 2 fairly established renovators and their quotes is around...

I believe the reason to how soon we can collect the keys is still whether HDB got the flat ready. Heard from a friend whose no. is 200+, not ROM yet, and will be collecting their keys on 14 Nov. Think i'll probably be getting my letter tomorrow or friday... :-)

yap, heard from my friend working in HDB, they need to check for defects before they pass the keys to HQ at the Hub. Then, they will arrange a time for the buyer to sign the lease. For St 64, it has been vacant for quite some time. If you noticed, there has been some works going on... i...

Wow cutie, that's really fast. In that case, I think i'm expecting mine soon. We actually called the HDB officer because our HLE is expiring on 19 Nov. She told us don't worry, they will settle it. We thought they will extend our HLE for us, but didn't really expect them to issue the keys so...

Thanks Valeri. We actually set our eyes on 989A #08/07-725 but too bad the few ppl in front of us took them... so a bit disappointed also. Anyway, we got 989C... also not a bad choice because it is nearer to mrt, bus stop and car park... lower floor though... can't really ask for much.

hmm... we actually also stopped by st64 flats. Found that the walk to JP is not so far. We timed ourselves, 12 min leisure stroll to JP, prob another 3-4 min to the mrt. The construction works are blocking the ways, will prob be better when it done.

Btw, there is this contractor who is willing to show u the flats they renovated in blk 988B, 10 flr. Do drop by during weekend to take a look at the flat inside when he's around... i also saw the sealed windows and the contractor said can change to 2-door or sliding windows... but will cost...
