    Curtains Help

    Hi, please PM me Vincent's contacts as well. TQ!
  2. My first purchase for the house! A solid 1.6m America walnut table + 4 chairs + matching bench Had been sourcing for dining table for quite some time. Was shortlisting this and another solid teakwood from Ethnicraft. Decided with this as hubby like the darker colour and slim clean cut design better. Will be updating more buys soon!
  3. Here's a brief summary of my journey of ID/contractor selection. Contractor J & E I called contractor J and was told to contact Mr E. After a few messages, arrangement was made to meet at the flat for a discussion. Both of them came and were punctual. Contractor J was friendly and quite a typical contractor; straight to the point. His "partner" E seems to be lacking in knowledge and he's more like a coordinator? After a tour at the house and discussing what were the things I wanted to be done, I was told that they will draft a quotation and let me know within the next 2-3 weeks. The quotation never came and there was no further follow up by either of them. Since during the 3 weeks I was also sourcing IDs, I never bothered to contact them for follow up as well. Perhaps if I did followup, I would have gotten a reply? Oh well.. Oxxtxxx Sxxxxxx Sourced this ID after browsing . Met once for a f2f discussion and to view the works at the office and about a week later received a call and was told quotation ready. Met up at the office again. Quotation given was wayyyy out of budget. My initial plan was to relay the flooring as I didn't like the gloss finishing of the homo tiles, so was explained that due to premix and the size of my floor area, flooring is one of the expensive stuff in the quote. And was told the quote was for $5 tiles or something. When I asked about alternatives such as overlay vinyl flooring, she said vinyl flooring is toxic and she won't recommend doing vinyl. Anyway, I felt she was rather pushy from the start so I dropped her. I-Cxxxxxx Saw one of the Renotalker t-blog and saw the house was quite nicely done, decided to contact the firm. Email was replied promptly and R replied me (not the same ID that did the fellow Renotalker's Reno). We met a total of 3 times. First time was at the office to go through the layout and my basic requiremets. Quotation was given to me within a week and we met a second time at the flat to see if anything were missed out since my flat was a resale and there could be additional works/touch up required. 3rd time was finalization of quotation. The quotation was within budget. Though the Service was good and I could feel the sincerity in him but somehow, I felt that there was a lack of rapport and I did not feel confident in his design. Fxxxx Axxxxx Dropped the firm an email after seeing . D replied my email and informed him my requirements via watsapp. Did not meet him until quotation was ready. He had to rush my quotation out as the previous ID wanted me to commit before month end as to lock the price. There was very good rapport and communicating with him was easy. I felt that I've known this guy for years.. Haha! Yeah, that's how good the rapport was. The quotation given was also reasonable. No guessing needed, decided to engage him and deposit paid on the first meeting.
  4. Haha.. Yes!! I love the estate! Lots of good food around!
  5. Hi; can I have the contact to your black Matt storage rack and contact as well? Thanks!
  6. Some pre-renovation photos View from the main door: I will be keeping the concept of a platform as I find the living abit too big and I didn't want to waste the space. The v long wall: Dining and balcony area: The balcony has been leveled up previously so it makes the dining area even more spacious Kitchen: I will be keeping the tiles as they are still quite. Carpentry to redo but still maintaining L shape

  12. Hi all this is the floorpan of my resale flat and would like to gather ideas on how i can renovate the house I guess due to the beam i cannot have a open concept kitchen right? The balcony has been levelled and sliding door removed, so the whole dining/family area looks really spacious
