[mehmeh_lim]

hi Stars,

I'm going to start reno my 5-rm unit in Aug, so gathering contacts of reliable sub-contractors, coz I dun quite require an ID.

Like ur dining rm, i'm using pendant lamp above the table. Actually a chandelier, but i think it wld give off too much heat if i turn on for long. So thinking of constructing tt sort of false ceiling/L-box tt u have in ur above pix..

Wld appreciate if u cld email ur contacts to me.. [email protected]

Thanks in advance!

[dreamdoll]

Hi mehmeh,

I'm also using a chandelier above my dining table - we used a dimmer to help reduce the heat...hope this helps!

 

[crazibee]

hi irene,

ur reno is nice! may i know which id u liased with?
can email me the quotations?
[email protected]

 

[ah_c]

hi,
those using false ceiling, can i know is it bright enough at night? How about the temperature, is it very hot for so many small light and if the cost of electric bill high due to so many small light?

 

[lyn6305]

Hi Ah_C,

actually i hv abt 20+ light points in my living room and MBR. Find it ok leh &amp; i can choose which lights i wanna to switch on so not very high electric bill. When no visitor then i only on 2 set of lights, 1 is above my tv and the other one is near the entrance to my kitchen. The rest i dun on one unless need to.

I also hv dimmer for downlights which are used to shine on my FU LU SHOU. Hee...something my ID put for me without me having to tell her and in fact, i nvr tot of it. Hee...so dimmer helps to control how strong i want my lights to be on my fu lu shou display. Good to hv it and can reduce heat...

 

[vnc]

Hi ah c,
I agree with Lyn, I also have around 20+ downlights. It's energy saving and not hot. I like the fact that I can choose where I want to switch the lights on.

 

[lyn6305]

Yup, hehe...only the initial cost of buying the lights are expensive (1.6K in lights) plus pay my ID for rewired/putting 32 light points in my house.

 

[bumbee]

Hi Lyn &amp; Irene

Care to share your ID and quotations? Thanks!!

[lyn6305]

Hi Bumbee,

Just sent u my ID's contact.

 

[piggypig]

hi,

i wanna place my LCD at the corner of the 2 walls in my living room. any1 with similar experience can share how the feature wall / tv console would look like??

 

[finesse]

I also had my LCD TV put at the corner of 2 walls so that I can do a swivel mechanism for the TV.. attach 1 picture here.. but its not very clear that the TV is at one corner.. I'll try to take a another picture again.. meanwhile, here's the one

[cherz]

hi jean,

where did u get yr sofa? i am intending to get a red sofa also.

 

[jackohy]

Hi Jean, can i check with you where you have gotten your coffee table and how much it cost as well as the dimension?

 

[piggypig]

Hi jean,

that's a good idea. can you share with me a clearer view?? Thanks.

 

[smellybaby22]

Hi Lyn
How much did u pay for the wooden flooring and the swivel wall for TV? Thks

 

[lyn6305]

Hi Smellybaby,

Firstly, i dunno how much my timber flooring is cos my renovation cost is one lump sum. No breakdown of individual items. And mine are long timber strip so are more expensive than parquet.

I do not hv swivel wall for TV. I think is Jean and Irene who had swivel wall for their TV. U mite want to find out from them.

 

[27012007]

hi lyn, how much you paid for your reno then... funny leh.. never breakdown cost meh>? good a not ? cheap>? i looking for 1 , can pm me his contact>? thanks

 

[dreamer17]

 

[lyn6305]

Hi NWC,

I had PM u my ID contact.

No breakdown is good in the sense tat I have a budget and my ID could actually work ard my budget. If they list down individual items like most ID/Contractor did, then they wont be able to do much ard my budget cos every item has a price and they could not go lower than certain pricing. My dad used to be a contractor so he knows. I had consulted him b4 i confirm my ID.

My renovation cost is 33K. Then in Jun this yr, we renovate our study room to hv study tables and top hung cabinets, tv console in MBR, coffee table, DVD/VCD cabinets...cost abt 5.8K. So we spent ard 38K+ for our renovation.

 

[jgal]

did you kena 'comments' from your elders? all the old ppl come my house all complain dark dark..

[acid]

on the other hand, breakdown is good, so that you know which area is costly and u can cut on it.

lyn is not wrong that usally the indivual item could go down, but you can get a discount on the total cost

 

[cherly]

Star,

Can you PM me your contractor number? I am intend to do carpentery work only.

[twinnie07]

Jess, it looks cool and nice! Now u need the right deco to perfect it!

 

[dreamer17]

JGal,

no comments from elderly coz i think my grandfather and parents are quite open with it...tat 1 is ok...i did cement screeching for my kitchen walls and common toilet walls....

mayb other elderly see will comment but my parents say nice leh...haha

 

[lyn6305]

Dreamer, nice but abit dark. I prefer entrance to be light color. Dark easier to maintain also so a plus point for long term.

Is one side of the wall tiled or cement screed??

 

[jessbrian]

LoveMe,

Thanks for ur comment, but I still wondering what to put on the feature wall?

 

[twinnie07]

Hmm.. collection items that you bot overseas?

 

[jessbrian]

Hmm... maybe can.

Thanks a lot.
