Hey people,
Hubby and I have been away from S'pore for some time and we are pretty keen on an executive flat near my mom's place(woodlands/sembawang area) when we are back.
Can anyone here kindly explain the difference between Design n Build/Design Plus, Premium and Standard?What's the market price like now?Many thanks

hi amelia,
hope i can provide u with some rough ideas:
Design n Build/Design Plus:
- Floorings for the whole hse done up (Ceramic).
- Wall tiles for kitchen and toilet up
- Bedroom doors provided with some designs but
not the solid kind
- Shower screen for both toilet
- Vanity top for MB toilet (not sure if it apply
to flats in all area but for mine, yes)
- Nice toilet bowls
Premium:
- Floorings for the whole hse done up (Homogenous tile for living, Ceramic for kitchen and toilets and parquet for bedrooms).
- Wall tiles for kitchen and toilet up
- Solid timber bedroom doors
- Shower screen for both toilet
- Vanity top for MB toilet
- Nice toilet bowls
Standards seem like got nothing lor
For more detailed info, need to check out with HDB particularly the area that u are interested to apply.
And lastly, welcome back home!

Hi Amelia,
to add on wat Ernie has post above on std hdb flat:
- vanity for MBR toilet (depending how new the flat is)
- toilet floor tile are done (in fact, toilet is all done up, not sure if it applies to all, but mine is)
to note, some areas (depending how old the house is also), the flat is all conceal piping.

Getting contractors to lay tiles can be a nightmare i heard..uneveness, chipped tiles and whatnots.Haha i'm pretty sure i'll be the one overseeing most of the renovation so premium or D&B will make things simpler for me i hope
For Premium flats and Design n Build/Design Plus , do i bid for them or..?Also anyone knows when the next WIS is?

amelia,
if I'm not wrong, nowadays WIS is ongoing all the time. the last time we chose WIS flats, my fiance got all the listings for west zone, central and even CCK and woodlands sembawang. you just go hdb and get the lists lor. very easy one.
like milo, mine also D&B. so have ceramic tiles and other stuff. just make sure u scrutinise everything and report anything that u think is a defect. they quite good they will change one.
or at least so far they agreed to change for me lah.
tmr me gg to the my hdb branch office to choose a new vanity top for my mbr toilet - coz the existing one got this rim of white residue that can't be removed... actually not very obvious, and was trying my luck when I put it down - but they agreed to change it for me leh hehehehehehheee.....
moral of the story - just state everything down.
pst

Hi fallen, thank for sharing your reno pics, very nice. What is your living room flooring?
hi milo, oh... i tot your id said he got his way to rectify it? did u manage to talk to him or u close one eye? mine delay cos some critical ones, the contractor arrange for us to view first before the workers install and we only available on weekends. got some, but we get it sorted with the contractor & carpenter, so ok. now busy cleaning the house. tiring leh. rem seeing your perspective drawing, so the outcome is wat as drawn?? btw need to thk u for recommending ray from excel marketing. bought a couple of stuff from him. he is a nice guy.
hi ak: u are welcome! glad to be of help
his way of retifying is actually taking a can of paint for painting ships to paint on my floor!!!! can u imagine the outcome???? i see already almost faint.
all in all, can say that their design is good, quality is super lousy.
i dunno is it because it is plain laminate or wat, the joint lines are very visible. dun seems to have this problem with woody grain laminate.

hi milo,
Ray is really nice. sometimes feel bad to bargain with him some more.. haaha
wah... paint onto the tiles ah... the ID suggestion or wat. so u got let him do tat?? I tot ID very particular on design outcome one??
the laminate, did u ask the contractor to redo? my neighbour did tat leh when he see the joint line very visible. it would mean the gap not properly joined rite? u paid full liao?? any means to correct this if not later maintenance will hv difficulty rite.

hi ak,
i let the designer tried that but really horrible so didnt. i myself been sourcing for the tiles but cannot find also so i guess really no choice.
the line dun seem to be due to not properly joined. actually i am not very sure too. so far maintenance wise is ok jus that not so sightly
i ask for discount from them. really too disappointed already. they came back to redo the things so many times until i lose count and still the mistake cannot be resolve. i also too tired to fight with them.
really a bad experience! would have 2nd tots recommending them to anyone

orange cube??? oh isn't that the one near bugis that did a lot of the hdb showflats??? We saw some of the hdb showflats - thot it was done pretty well - so we initially also approached them... but i had to go away for a trip, and we discussed and agreed that they would call me after a certain date (when I am back), but the id NEVER called or smsed at all. so we figured they didn't want our biz (if not eager for biz they wun do a good job mah - that's what we feel) - so we also din call them again (coz by that time we were also talking to other ids who were more eager to serve us than they were!)...
hey guys, who was it who wanted a list of ids I'd looked at and wouldn't mind recommending??? can pm me your email address again - hehehe finally prepared the list already but forgot who asked .... (or in which thread! kekeke)
pst
