I have engaged this company before and find them good, if you guys are interested to have their contact PM me and will reply.

My guess would be electical first as the ceiling need to cover the cable. Just my guess

Price does play a part but I think the smooth process and end product is more important as you will be using it for a few years therefore it is important not only looking at the price.

Singrb, Agreed with you on this, there are not many of this type of service provider out there and I think it is good to promote those good compnay that we have come cross here for all.

My ex contractor gave me the same problem and worest was it is around christmas and Chinese New Year around the corner. They left me with a lot of **** and was luck to get another company that help me fix the outstanding issue. That is why I believe word of mouth is better. I do not mind promoting for them here as they really help me out the last time.

Hi, you have you balconies lay out or can upload som photo of it so we can give better suggestion. Hope to help

Do not fill it with soil. You have issue nexttime. To pack the whole place with plants in pots so that you can not see what is below. If there is any dead platns just have to replace that only one. ?hope this help

Paladin126, you are right, is almost 9m long solid top can open a cooking school. ha ha. may be typo error.

Price is important but I think the workmenship and the coordination of the work is more important as you maybe stay there for more than 5 years My 5 cent worth

Sorry for the late reply. Yes I did see a few semi-d at my area with a grand look from outside. I intend to have the open terrace as a entertainment room therefore the master will have to be at the second level. Leechaorui, you seems to have a very good knowledge and experenice in reconstruction, must have done this many times, big time property owner... ha ha. If you have any one you can recommend me to get a quote from please let me know. As for the rest of the members if possible let me know anyone you have try and found good please let me know. Also if possible what is the vaule you have spent. Thanks in advance...

Thanks Leechaorui for sharing, My land is square with about 12m frontage which should be good for a semi-D layout. Basic concept of the house would be master bedroom with balcony and 2 bedroom on level 2. 1st floor will be maid's room and granny's room and a bomb shelter. The roof terrace will be a room with open terrace. As for the materials, would like something of better quality as we intend to stay long. Aircon whole house would be the best. Stone finishes for living room and timber for rooms Looking at middle range or above materials Anyone with similar requirement and land size can advise on this?

How long does it take to reconstruct the house. 3. Would like to know who should i go about kicking start this? Cold call on the architect or builder or can i sent them email and wait for them to reply, will they? 4. Canrecommend architect or builder that any existing member used and found that their workmanship are good. 5. Understand that there is construction loan available, but it is for short term, so what to do after construction? Have to refinance? Thanks in advance for reading and replying me....
