I think I ever saw this at IMM but I can't remember the shop name and at which floor. You can try to search there. Emobebe

Hi user123, Just came across with your beautiful L Shape box. Can I have the contact of the contractor? By the way, how much has been quoted? EmoBebe

Hi Empty, Can upload some photo of your door frame and door? I also want to change the doors if it the total renovation cost within my budget. Thanks! Emobebe

Hi all, Here is my floor plan. http://img826.imageshack.us/i/floorplanq.jpg/ I need help from all of you. Please vote where should I put my sofa there. 1) At the wall face to the door when you sit down. TV console in front of the door. OR 2) Near to the door face to the wall when you sit down. So, the tv console will be at the wall side. EmoBebe

Can PM me the shop name and contact? Singapore is a small Island. To be frank, I stay in the west region and will be moving to the east region soon. North region is in between. Should be alright.. Emobebe

Hi Pixie, Your home renovation very nice! I love it. Care to share the breakdown of the cost? By the way, how is the workmanship? Does Alan do repiping for aircond and change window glass plus the grill? EmoBebe

Hi Empty, Thanks for sharing. It is really helpful. Actually, I went to a hardware shop which also sell paints yesterday. As I walked into the shop, I saw only one auntie inside the shop. Then, she asked me...what you want? Oh, I am looking for ICI or Dulux paints. Oh, which one you want? All is inside that catalogues which she pointed at ICI and Nippon catalogues. Then, i just browse through the catalogue. Actually, I dun really know what i kind of paint I want. So, I just ask a few casual questions. Auntie, which one is good for kitchen and which is good for living room as in can last long and also suitability. Then, auntie glanced at me and replied both almost the same. So, my next question ICI better or Nippon? She replied again almost the same...then I asked price wise same or not...also the same answer almost the same... Then i asked how much for 5 litres ICI comparable to Nippon...she went to her store at the back and came back with a notebook..oh ICI ah 7x plus and Nippon 5x plus... Oh, you meant 7x and 5x almost the same is it? LOL.. She pissed off with me and kept silent for a while. Then, i just thank her for info and walk off from her shop. I guess she don't really bother about the products she sell in her shop and her focusing is on can sell can already. EmoBebe

That is nice. I can't bring anyone to see my future unit yet cos the seller not comfortable. I still got another quote coming in this weekend from another ID company. By the way, do u hack your flooring? If yes, how much has been quoted for a four room flat? Emobebe

Oh I see. I have asked a few IDs for quotations. Here is the summary but none met my expectation. 1) Innerview - ID too busy to meet up with me. She sms me said that she emailed the quotation and then no follow up. 2) *** - ID is a friendly person and offered to show us his project at one of the condos here. Went to view yesterday but found workmanship poor. Sighs..a bit disappointment. Quotation is a bit high too. 3) The Line - ID told me she will get back to me one month later cos I don't even have my first and second HDB appts yet. I guess I have to keep on looking for the right ID. Maybe at the end, I will do my own design and get a contractor to carry out my plan. EmoBebe

By the way, where is your dining area? EmoBebe

Sorrie ya, I am a bit "idiot"on reading floor plan...LOL Is there any wall in between your windows at the living room? Or whole stretch are windows and you build half height TV Console? The storeroom in your kitchen is originally there or you build it? So, when you start your renovation? Can upload your photos here? I am still waiting for 1st and 2nd appointment date from HDB. Meanwhile, still looking around. A lot of PM messages suggesting their own companies but I think I will go for those who have references here and if possible, I can see their workmanship on site. EmoBebe

Hi J|ing, My floor plan is here http://img826.imageshack.us/i/floorplanq.jpg/ Almost same as yours.... EmoBebe

Btw, I just clicked on their website. It hangs and the webpage not able to load properly, so can't view anything now...

Hi Mr Nice Guy, Actually, I haven't created any Reno T-Blog yet. However, I think in order to create one, you should go to main page of Forum > click on Reno-T Blog thread > Post under new topic. Cheers:) Emobebe

Hi EmptyDivided, Thank you for sharing. Actually, I noticed a lot of ID companies using Nippon paint rather than others. I am not sure whether the Nippon paint is better or because the Nippon company give them a bigger cut. I am looking for paint which can last longer and worth for the value. EmoBebe

Hi, I can't viewyour images here. It seems your links are broken. By the way, is there any solution for this? Others than building up divider? EmoBebe

I don't get it. Is there any connection between getting a comfortable sofa and positioning of my sofa in living hall???

I checked with my neighbour who live opposite me because my unit and her unit same layout and ours is door to door unit. She put the sofa facing the tv console which is supported by the wall and the back of the sofa is facing the door. Is there any solution for this others than building up the wall partition in between the door and sofa? I checked with my ID that it will be cramped a bit because my living hall quite small and i think it will hinder some move in stuff like fridge, big furniture like wardrobe etc. Emobebe

Sorry, if you don't mind. Can you let me know what is the software name? I clicked on your links and it shows me dozen of softwares...make me blur!!!....LOL EmoBebe

Hi, Can someone advise which paint is better? Dulux / ICI / Nippon ???? I am gonna paint my living room and bedrooms. Looking for easy to maintain and natural glow. EmoBebe

Please share with me if you have ever changed your bedroom doors and also the glass kitchen door like what are the things I need to take note. You can tell me the pros and cons too. Thanks. EmoBebe

Hi, Can any gurus advise me on the following? 1. I would like to know what is the main difference between Homogeneous and Ceramic tiles others than they belong to different group? Which one suitable to lay on living room and bedroom most? 2. How much does each cost and how big is per piece (means like 600 x 600)? 3. Where to get reasonable price and quality for tiles? 4. Anyone ever supply tiles for your ID to do it? Or you just select based on your ID's suppliers? 5. Is there anyone know how to calculate how many tiles I need to use if i were to post my floor plan here? Thanks! EmoBebe

Hi all, Anyone can recommend me for the above installation? I need to change the window glass and window grill at my new place soon. By the way, anyone can advise me on this? I will hire ID to do some work too. Which one should do their work first - Window contractor or ID? Will Window contractor damage the wall when they change the window casement and grills? Would they plaster it back? Cheers:) Emobebe
