Alright guys, just chill out ya. Fyi, i've also been to Ho Bee, G plan, Ernest, Impress21 design & Build, Ideal House, U- home, ciseern, *****. With a budget of 40-50k, suprised that none got back to me efficiently nor with passion. Meet so many ppl all over singapore very tiring and waiting for quotation that never came, or came without things like estimated carpentry, etc, etc. Lucky i do my homework before getting keys. Chanced upon this thread (you'll realise i'm not the author of this thread thou i seem slike:rofl:) and kpo go call them. One thing lead to another. In the end my reno went down all the way to 25k from the intial as my place was small and suggestion to REDUCE carpentry was given by Kelvin and i skipped the WIW idea as well. Tt saved me almost 15k easily. Along the way, wanted little things here and there like mirrors, marble latch for toiletires, etc... cox itchy backside and total bill was 28k, thou i budgeted for more. Was it expensive? I'm not sure. It did'nt felt like cause suprisingly i had fun renovating my place thou i read so much about ppl saying renovation very headache or when ppl ask what i'm doing and i say reno-ing my place, they'll go "aghh....veri ma fan right?" Open house, ppl ask how much and when i told them, they said it seemd like it cost so much more. Tt made me a delighted home owner. Even my own father was impressed and got them to re-do my room cause my sister will be takign over my room. Only cost 2k for little things done here and there, but they did it, and they did it well. I've intro some personal friends to them as well. Some say they are exp. I see their quote, i admit it's more expensive compared to mine, mayb 5-10%. Similarly i said, compare and decide. My role was only to offer another avenue. My reason for this lengthy essay is very simple - to share my life experience as a first owner. I even haf a blog dedicated to this whole process. Having gone through such a positive experience, i cant help it but be convicted in helping out in this thread, to new home owners or anyone who wants advice. I think i'm a person who like to share, dun mind telling you i'm also active in other forums and also am a moderator. Too much time online? Maybe.....but i use my mobile to surf while outside cox you can call me addicted to forums Hence i hope all the squabbling can be put behind. I think the point is made. I like the old fun Tau interior thread. J.L Till date, we have used Tau's services. 1) Zc31 - Bukit Gombak 2) ilove6969 - Choa Chu Kang 3) carebnet 4) Danielray 5) Sugarmeq 6) johntan2005 7) LimeGreen 8) misschiang 9) makiy30 10) janjan48 11) clover88 12) ashleymama 13) M2A

Hehe you have been following my photography eh. i haf been bz, just uploaded some pics from recent thiapusam i went and a wedding on valentine's day at Asian Civilization Museum. U can view it at my signature Am glad you had a smooth renovation. Can post some pics here?

Feels awkard to be posting this but would like to ask if there's any kind of food that you'll increase the intake of to probably make the body stronger, more receptive to getting preggy, etc? Also, any female gynae in the west to recommend?

For 15 tables, why not try poolside or something?

If hot date and done at ROM, better click fast

Mine was Joe Leng. Mid 30's funny guy :cheers:

For my house, design may not appeal to all cox i designed it myself Let me guess. U talk to Gabriel then now Kelvin? Nevertheless, it's just goin one big round. They work as a team.

Must constantly go up and check. Once you miss certain step....defect will only show in time to come after warranty finish.

Hopefully. Btw, your place is really getting in place ya. Nice!

Dr. Evil, What's the crucial deciding factor in deciding your contractor? Share with us. Btw, has Tau gone down to take actual measurement? Bcox for my case, after actual measurement, cost went down by about 10%, but of course i itchy backside go do more stuff i did not think of initially. If you're comfortable, jux pm me your name and area you live in. I don't need address nor contact no. Let me have these details, i speak to Kelvin personally for you to create some magic. Hey there, Guess you have not been reading around eh. Here's a link where it documents works since day 1, showing you the transformation. http://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?sh...=15560&st=0

U see. This is what i mean by childish. U like to highlight your comparisons and people's comments. Highlight = what? Surf in car forums before? This is exactly the same kind of behavior that gets banned from forums. I've never seen such statements in other thread. Frankly i'm kinda amused more over your antics rather then what Tau has or has not to offer you. Yes if Ernest satisfies you, by all means engage them. Dun need to brawl all over. I shan't comment whether favor cheap anot. YOu did not type it out explicitly, but your feedback certainly did express that and i believe others share the same sentiment. I"m in no way related to Tau. Dun belive, ask Kelvin, winson or Gabriel. So regardless your choice, kudos and all the best ahead. Happy valentine's day

Firstly, think there's no need to highlight the name of the company in such a manner. I personally feel it's childish. And for the record, Ernest service was bad to me. I think at times, service is pretty subjective. The ID not in good mood or bz, anyhow serve you. I take it with a pinch of salt and move on. Period. I quote you: To install L-Box and false ceiling **** and dining. (LUMPSUM) 1600 Light point and install light. $45.00 EACH so...does the Lbox lighting include in the $1600.00 or its charge seperately??? To me, it's clear than for 1600, you'll get your L-box and false ceiling. Although not mentioned, it includes cutting the hole for your spotlight/downlight. To install any lights into the ceiling that you purchase, it'll cost $45. Please understand not everyone uses oxford english like you do. Sometimes words are mis-intepreted. If in doubt, ask and clarify. My last point is, sometimes too cheap....you not worried? I believe today, generally ppl do not want cheap. They want value for money.

Hehe i alos hope i becum a father this yr end. Well i heard gen2 focus more on lower half of body as the current one focus also on upper or overall balancing.

I hope ppl don't go to TAU with perception as cheapest. Just like in the past ppl think Ho B** was cheapest but it did'nt turn out true either right? Similarly they woncustomers over through their own customer service and other attributes.

Actually the prices were matched when i went best denki to buy during the IT fair. Furthermore they throw in more stuff. I was like shocked. Saved me from the queue and jam.

Me no kids yet find time hard to squeeze to play game u still can play rpg? Anyway hold my wii purchase back first. Heard generation 2 coming up.

Well i have'nt touched PS2 for th elongest time. Dun even have a console in my house now, but planning for one now. Most of the time other then work, weekends is burnt with wedding photography, a passion & to supplement alittle milk money God of war is cool but i guess FFX still remains my fav, with blitzball and the aeons coming up

Gong xi! Niu year Niu hopes and everything Niu & good coming along!

The game's called Cooking Mama and it has 3 versions i think. The most popular one is "Cookoff". I'm planning to get it soon, wanna group buy? But i'm gettin a mod set from a reputable seller as recommended in other forums. So far the fun games are like wii sports, wii fit, super smash bros brawl, ravin rabbids, etc.... Wah seldom girls like playing games, and RPG somemore! The last i played was FFX.....super solid graphic and was so addicted to it back then Wife more into fun, no frills games so wii console kinda suits her best. Ask her thoink and use the controller D-pad, turns her off That time ask her play grand theft auto she also dun like, thou it's like one of the most fun games then. The only xbox game i know is doom or soemthing like tt. Cause my brother in-law always wan me to play with him wen i visit my in-laws. He knows i dunno how to play...jux wanna kik my arse

They jack up overall price another 15% and give you free gift, you want? Renovation process got headache. After completion move in for a month then you'll slowly see if any more minor stuff to rectify. You call, they'll respond. I'm sure you've read around where others has issues with slow after sales service and response. Cheapest in town i'm not sure but value for money, this i'm sure Tau can deliver. kelvin & Winson has been a great family friend now, i never find them they will also call and ask "eh towkay, everythign ok anot?" This kind of contractor where to find? If you wanna see my place (6months old plus now), tell Kelvin to arrange with me. Tell him Jordan's place.

Well mine is a water tank not instant so hopefully dun haf such issues. Now shopping for a Wii......my wife kinda enjoys it so much during CNY visitation that i think i'm gonna get her a set for V-day

Howz everyone' s new year? Had relatives coming to my place for the first time and thumbs up from them. Kelvin also delivered some new yr stuff last friday which suprised us, and made our day. Majong time. Huat ah!

Thomas is new so i've never met him personally before. Frankly speaking if Thomas dare screw you up, let me know, i'll get the boss to handle personally.

Y i dun haf bah kua!!!! Yes recession is hitting hard. PSA is my customer and as i travel ports in Asia pacific, you can see visually a slow down, which is scary. Can imagine the chain effect it has. 2008 has been a rough year for me for those who know my story. May 2009 be a good one! Btw got one bro emailed me for photography services for his AD and said he saw my link from renotalk but did'nt leave nick. Izit anyone here?

I just got back from China and BKK and suprisingly cold, did'nt bring the correct clothing. China was like 10 degrees at night and when wind blows, my face so numb. Afterwhich i went to BKK and it was suprisingly cooling in the day, cox the impression i had was hot and sweaty. Night time also saw ppl wearing jackets. It was fine for me, guess thai's dun like the cold
