Brambles:

Mine is a Premium flat, so no floorings done. Cost me ard $22 - 23k because 90% are carpentry. Then I m using veneer for everything.

If it is a Std flat, it would hv cost ard $29 - 30k. Everything in my hse was customised incl my dining table & coffee table, my TV console & my bedframe.

Wat do u think? Cheap? Exp?

[shern]

[shern]

jean you got mini gym at new place huh? or the jogging track.... my new place no track so sian... you must be discipline k but dun overdo if not fall sick even worse....

 

[calm]

i dun have that planned.. cause that 1 can touch up 1.. maybe before the AD will go for maintainence. However.. i m going for manicure & & pedicure.. facial.. now i m using the new face lifting cream from essence to shape my face.. hope it works!!

 

[brambles]

ah ger... i guess ur hse reno is considered ok cuz of the extensive carpetry. i once visited an ID and he quoted me minimum $40K for my hse reno. oh! mine's a 4-rm standard unit, by the way...

 

[calm]

yap.. our place there got jogging track.. i usually dun have the determination.. but this time i jog with my hubby.. with him around.. i feel more encouragement & secure becoz new place there got many foriegn contractor!!

 

[littlegirl]

hi hi

back in force...........

Wah, everybody talking abt PS preps arh. me - nothing to talk abt yet, wait till mine is closer to date then I ask u all experts hor.

Brambles:
Ok arh? Actually some of our frens said cheap, bt some said exp. Bt hor, if u ask me to look ard my hse & pt out where is my $23k, I can't find out leh..... also dunn y?

Ok, gotta jet back to wk liao.

 

[littlegirl]

talk abt jogging, hmm....maybe 2mr I go jogging b4 gng out w/ my gfs.

ha ha...............

actually I prefer to jog alone leh, if jog w/ someone, tendency to slow dwn & chit chat is very high. Bo bian lah, me ti ta, can't stop chatting.

 

[shern]

ah ger, i forgot, yours 4 or 5 rm? mine 5rm spent bout 30k...sim tia, mine about half of your customised stuff.....find yours reasonable, but feedback bout mine like also cheap leh....hmmm....

 

[calm]

brambles.. then how much u spend in the end? BTW, Ah ger 1 is almost fully done liao.. maybe that y cheaper. ha..ha.. 1 mattress can live there liao..Ah ger agreed? even the gate is very nice, floor done.. toilet fully done !!

 

[brambles]

ah ger, ok lah. cuz a lot of ur stuff r customised mah. so plus minus a bit, it's considered reasonable, i suppose. hehe...

 

[shern]

jean, your place complete yet?

brambles, 40k is alot...customised alot of things? expensive materials huh?

 

[mtdt]

hi hi...

talking abt PS huh:
Mine in Sept leh.. like long way to go..
I also try to jog at home, pgl area very good to jog.

Hse reno: Mine is 5 room premium... spend abt $17k (Kitchen cabinets with solid top and sliding door, tv console, feature wall to cover storeroom door, MBR warerobe, another bedroom worerobe, wall to wall mirror at MBR toilet, MBR worerobe and storeroom feature wall, changed my MBR toilet door and shifted my MBR door and all electrical & lighting stuff)

 

[brambles]

jean, my flat not ready yet. haven't even collected my keys. but me nothing to do, go see an ID recc by my friend loh. hehehe...

$40K includes a lot of carpentry n some furniture. can't rem wat others leh.

 

[calm]

MTDT, Cool.. me spend 24k for reno..4 rm.. quite x hoh.. but i m very satisfied.. so nvm lor

Shern my fully reno liao.. got picture previously but later i format my pc.. so all pic gone liao.. cannot show u

got backup but with my hubby!!

 

[brambles]

mtdt... ur reno is quite reasonable huh. got pix to share or not? me doing research on hse reno contractor/ID

 

[calm]

brambles.. it good to find out more before u sign up to any contractor.. stay cool.. dun worry too much coz the actual size of your house is beyond imagination... ha..ha... last time i want this.. i want that.. later realise my house too small for everything i plan initially

 

[shern]

MTDT, pgl very nice area to jog, had a church event there once, only walk walk around the area...your reno seems cheap leh

brambles, think reno usu dun include furnishing unless customised...cos if all add up...wah i really spend alot....

jean, i have pic too, also with hb....wait for him to send to me lor...get yours to send too...

 

[mtdt]

pics are in home pc...
tonite or weekend then post it up ok...

but I wld not recommend my contractor/ID...
din had a fuss-free time with them...
but still can use the quote as a guage..

 

[shern]

brambles, agree with jean, should go around and ask for more quotations, if cheap ask them about the materials used....

mine actually considered reasonable cos cousin-in-law is in ID moreover hb and me did a lot of homework

so managed to cut cost...

 

[brambles]

gals who r sharing pix. dun forget me hor!!! hehe... kum sia in advance. there's an underscore between 'brambles' n 'sg'

[email protected]

 

[brambles]

mtdt... thanks! look forward to seeing ur pix

 

[calm]

brambles, i pt to add from shern.. given time please always check their completed showflat -existing customer..(not the 1 in their company) to check on the workmanship.. my friend got 1 w/o checking their workmanship & now she everyday complain about the house reno until now.. rem also nvr pay full amount untill complete.. some contractor nvr appears once u pay full.

Hi girls

Just realised Dec 04 brides thread have overtaken us as the most on thread.

Unicorn

Guess everyone's starting to become real busy with work and wedding preps.

PS ah... The only thing I did was to sleep more the night before, and don't eat/ drink too much water on PS day. Other than that, nothing...

I had a pretty relaxing time. It was fun too. So dun worry, just enjoy urself.

 

[shern]

i delayed payment till every single thing complete....and now not even 1 year got problem....bookshelve collapse under heavy weight (study too hard hahahah) sink leaking.... my fren's gal pulled the bracket off my blind...hai.... wlss not smoothen out properly cos all qigong the job. also our fault, cos we brought in 3 seperate grps to do various stuff.... painter even sya only condo can have smooth walls....ugh.... but overall still happy lah

expensive lesson....

 

[mtdt]

"walls not smoothen out properly cos all qigong the job. also our fault, cos we brought in 3 seperate grps to do various stuff.... painter even say only condo can have smooth walls....ugh.... "

Hey, this sounds familiar!!!

i got a separate painter to paint the hse...
so ID like not happy tat we dun let them earn the $... we moved the MBR door, change the powerpoint or light points etc, so have some hacking & plastering etc..

ID says painter shd plaster a final round to smoothen the wall before painting... painter says he only paint.. dun do plastering etc...
Headache!!!!
