Welcome to RT! Your home is similar to mine, maybe can share some tips. My reno will start in early Dec.

3 light points is okay for your living room since you will not be switching them on all at the same time. For LP04 and LP132, you can get 2 2ft tubes. Get cool white MBR: you will lights above the bed and also at the wardrobe area. You can consider uplights. Balcony: you don't need additional ceiling light, unless you love to read at the balcony. Study room: fan light would be insufficient to light up a study room, I'd suggest an uplight or table lamp.

i didn't have a good impression of closetdesign when i went to their showroom. care to share your experience? my preferred order 1) Carpentry - remove only 2) Electrical 3) Painting 4) Flooring 5) Marble polish 6) Carpentry (make sure your flooring is protected)

$18 for the T5 light alone or including the luminaire? A shop in geylang was selling T5 2ft at $5, light alone. T8 2ft costs $2.

just finished 1st appt, waiting 6 weeks for 2nd appt the house is very run down, i'll post the pics next time i go for site visit, probably next sat.

LPG is more expensive than piped gas over the long term. Piped gas means you need to run it into your house, which some people are worried about leaks. Personally, I will be using induction so no worries

May I check with you what is the model for this one? And where is the shop to buy from if I go Korea?

Husband and wife team, good service, tells you quality of product. S&C Block 338, Ang Mo Kio Ave 1 Street 32, #01-1647 Singapore 560338

i guess i am more fortunate too tampines is considered central?

i bought at valuation chip&dale, your TV selling at challenger for $899 for members. check out challenger.com.sg

think the following will cost more than expected - Replace squat pan to sitting toilet bowl

Your ID earn at least 30k from you?

his reno is done already he engaged an ID, spent 100k

Don't go for ID for hacking.. look for a sub-contractor. Should cost less than $1000 in total for hacking.

maybe you should share your contractor's contacts

at $190, make sure they don't give you the china version

How was it? As good as claimed?

i'm surprised people pay so much for renovations

audiohouse (liang court) sells it

Glass shower screen, i only know Besglas and Austscreen. You take a look see which is more suitable for you, don't think can DIY

welcome and congrats to you for a new home. if you are going for a new look, an ID is good. if you already know what you want, contractor can be cheaper. if you know who to approach, you can save up to 50%

Hi, welcome to renotalk! I also same as you, diy coordination. I just got a quote from the same guy as you, wonder if his workmanship can make it or not My quote is about 9k including hacking, tiling, plastering whole house wall&ceiling. I suggest plumbing and electrical get separately from the same guy better. Otherwise your water pipes and your electrical cable fight each other Carpentry get last.

Welcome. I presume you have done your homework and know that you are paying more for PAX because you want to have the "accessories" to include in your wardrobe. Generally, Ikea products are only strong as a whole piece. The door acts as a protective layer while the back is very vulnerable. Ikea will charge you for delivery (around $50-100 per trip, check with the store) and assembly (i think it is an additional 6% of your bill). Personally, I don't like to install things that are BIG on my own It's only 6% charge, so you decide if you can handle it yourself. I don't mind assembling everything else, just not the wardrobe. The sliding door is a tricky mechanism too so I think I'll let them handle it. Anyway my 10ft wardrobe is projected to cost about 1.3k inclusive of delivery and installation. The installation only costs $80.00. If you are not buying doors, it should be very cheap. Just get them to install the frame. You can install the "accessories" yourself.

I went to Expo and spoke with the Tarkett salesperson. He told me that the whole world knows that Pergo sells the best laminate. That's why I decided to buy Pergo Practiq (not Family)

it's not always necessary to have reinforcements. just add a 30cm depth mortar base behind and your cabinet would look suspended but is not completely suspended
