Hi guys, I'm a homeowner, father and works during the day. I was in the same dilemma as you. Furthermore, I wanted a affordable system and not those costing more than $500 bucks. I also realised most IP cameras need a power cord and a power point even if they advertised that they are wireless. I wanted something totally wire-free because I did not have a power point where I wanted to place the camera. Did my research and found this TOTALLY wire-free system. Tested in my own home and it works. Decided to bring in to help others like myself and also to make a little side-income to subsidize my monthly expenditure on the kid. I posted about the CCTV in another thread . PM me if you are interested. It costs only $299. Cheaper that the cheapest FULL CCTV home security system you can find in Mustafa.

Things are finally looking up for the renovation. Got the keys in early August but renovation has not started. Part of the reason is because we had some defects to rectify (lucky minor ones) and also because we now are in the queue to get the cement screeding done by HDB. The process is taking ages since almost everyone is looking to either lay vinyl, laminate, parquet and wood flooring somewhere in the house and there's only 1 contractor doing the screeding for each development. Anyway, we have already done some shopping for the house, together with my ID. He's quite a nice guy and very easygoing and seems to have quite a lot of lobang for all the tiles, electrical and fitting needs. He also owns his own carpentry workshop, and thus the cheaper carpentry costs. We decided on him because of the good vibes he gave us. Very honest with this opinions and he is very fast. He sent our quotation via emails, and then have a basic layout planned all within a 1 week. So much faster than some of the IDs I went to previously. Best thing, his quotation is actually lower that what we budgeted as he doesnt really charge manpower costs and he does his carpentry inhouse. For tiling, we went to this shop in Balestier - Lian Seng Hin Trading. Wah, there was so many diff types of tiles. Got our homogenous tiles - retail price is at $3.30 (new style mirroring marble finish). I'm sure ID has discount. Straightaway, we went to hunt for lightings. Also in Balestier, - Chan Huat Lighting. Man, that place is so big and so many different types of lights.. Got LED downlights for around $40. All in all, spent around $2k for the whole house - LED downlights for living room, LED hanging light for dining area, hanging lights for the walk-in wardrobe, a circular led light for the master bedroom, 2 toilets, normal lights for the 3rd bedroom and kitchen, and a simple light for the service yard and bombshelter. So expensive.. hard pain. Better be worth it! We also went around shopping for kitchen and toilet fittings the same day. Another shop, cant remember the name but in the end, got a stainless steel undermount kitchen sink for around $218, a kitchen sink tap for around $90 and the usual toilet fittings. So excited that everything is starting already. now just have to wait for HDB to start doing the cement screeding!!

Wow, it sure seems a while since I updated this t-blog. But there was really nothing much going on since the last update except for the usual ID hunting and stuff. In short, we decided not to use any of the IDs we talked to before. Either they are too expensive, have no creativity, think we got no money, or we just cannot get along with them. And we are not a fussy couple to start with. This really dampens our excitement to get our keys! However, our laminate flooring company saved the day for us. We got the Berry Floor Riviera Laminate flooring for the 3 bedrooms at one of the home fairs at the Expo. We liked what we saw, especially the HydroPlus water resistant tech. It is a bit more ex than normal laminate but we thought the extra waterproof coating is worth it. As usual, the laminate is scratch resistant and we got upgraded to another base so the entire floor is not hollow-sounding. After hearing that we are getting our key soon and our plight in finding a contractor/ID, the salesperson was nice enough the recommend an ID that they usually work with – ID at a contractor price. We had our reservations about this guy in the first place but after meeting up with him and hearing him out, we engaged this ID! Wuhuu! Finally! His story is for another post. J

I contacted them and received a reply from Jessie that a senior salesperson would call, arrange a meet-up with me. The call never came. We had to call him instead. Met up and felt he was pushy and keep insisting to know our budget when we really havent thought about it since it was going to be our first home and we havent really met up with many IDs. He shared a few things... and promised to get back when he is done with the quotation. 3 weeks later - still nothing.

I'm wondering how long it will usually take for an ID firm to get back to you for the 2nd meeting? Is 3 weeks usual or even longer than usual? During this period, I met up with Thom Signature, Plush Living, Surface Living and Inside Living. Thom Signature: Went to visit one of their completed projects at Buangkok. Was very impressed with the workmanship and design. They are very into design and the theme at the showflat was really what I wanted. Supposed to have 2nd meet-up on Monday (about 2 week plus from 1st meetup), but got postposed cos he was down with fever. Arranged to meet on Sat instead. Can’t wait. Plush Living: They have a nice office with a mini-showroom. Impressive and wifey liked! The ID that met up with us was very efficient, knowledgeable and most importantly, friendly and we can click! Took him 1 week to give us quotation and then another week for a requote. He was patient and educated us on design some concepts (since we are first timers and have no idea what is going on). Got the quote from him already but told him nicely I have to wait for the others to get back to me first. Surface Living: Met the ID outside as they don’t have an office at the moment after moving out of their current one. Very friendly guy with a focus on helping us find cheaper alternative to everything. Still waiting for meet him again after first meeting (2 weeks ago) but he requested another week cos he was busy with an urgent commercial project. Inside Living: Met up with this guy (sales manager) at the office. Appreciate he was willing to meet up after 8pm since both me and wifey are both working. He showed us some stuff but didn’t really clicked. Till now.. no news at all from him. Enough said. I’m now just waiting for their quotations and designs.Hope it’s worth the wait.

Hi Dreamzgal... Have been following your T-blog. Can't wait to see the final outcome of your renovation. BTW, your toilet tiles looks awesome. And I like the Blanco sink. Looks unique.

Have been a little quiet over the past 2 weeks since I was busy meeting up with several ID. I must say.. it is a very tiring process having to repeat the same things over and over again to different people. I only meet up with 4 IDs and am already exhausted.. Not sure how some people can meet up with 10 or more IDs! I respect you guys! In any case, I must say the search for an ID to build my dream house has been… quite….Blah! Some of the IDs I met do not seem to have much creativity and there is also one who seem to be more interested in “helping” me cut budget even before knowing my actual budget, suggesting me to use some cheap materials instead cos “nobody will know unless they know on the board”. I believe these are the salespersons instead of the actual designers themselves. Very obvious from their sales pitches and they don’t really contribute much ideas. That said, there were 2 who were really good and these are the actual designers. So very different from their approach and very creative and was able to show us some innovative ideas even on the first meetup. Right now, I’m just waiting the IDs to meet up with me again for the second time with their proposal and quotations. Hopefully, they can conjure some magic. If not, the search continues…
