it is easy to do it. your ID should be able to do it. they just need to install U-channel to hold the glass. my cousin just did something similar for his shower area.

I have used mark from mds interiors. Not the cheapest but excellent workmanship. Met my budget and expectation. Will definitely recommend. Good luck to your Reno!

already PMed you

yes, i have used MDS but was serviced by Mark, the design director. overall good just that prices are a bit more ex. but quality is really good and he pays close attention to my job.

i did not keep the quote, but i know their prices are not the cheapest. we spent 65k for the reno, excluding appliances. they were about $3-4k more expensive. i decided to go with them as it was recommended by my friend. and after seeing my friend's reno and showflats done by them. they brought me to Orchard Scotts showflats.... those were awesome... but i do not have so much money to spend on my reno the first two pictures are my friend's house in joo chiat Uploaded at Picoodle.com Uploaded at Picoodle.com this is my house

i would have called them. i think that is basic courtesy.

My ID used white, grey, black and complementing it with timber. modern and clean feel.

already PM you.

i would have hacked the connecting wall between the rooms. then build two wardrobes, back to back to each other. i did this to my corridor. my id proposed to hack the wall (connecting to Master), and build a wardrobe. it is back to back with the wardrobe in master.

i just did my entrance wall with white brick. i love it. my ID even complemented it with a timber storage cum TV feature wall. it was awesome!

my bro in law did his EM for around $70k. overhaul kitchen, 3 toilets and living room feature cum storage. i was very impressed with the workmanship and eventually used the same ID for my own condo reno. i find their prices reasonable, definitely not the cheapest but very good quality. they will plan according to your budget before they quote. i used all the high end laminates and heavy duty blum systems. at the end of the day, i think like my bro in law mentioned, the difference, probably a few thousands for a $70k reno but the quality is worth every cents. no point saving small money when your reno is supposed to last for years.

i feel more important to check for serious defects. eg. leakages, uneven tiles, drainage. my ID gave me good advice when he came to do site measurement. you should ask your ID as well. they are the experts.

i agree it is very important to see completed works. my id bought me to a few and even showed me showflats. they were the ones that did the showflats!! i was really impressed, more so when they have their own factory. very good quality control. i had a painless and smooth reno.

never worked with any of them before. i decided not to engage those branded companies as they usually employ many young inexperienced project managers. i got my ID from a friend's recommendation. I think it is not so much of the company but the person handling the project. Look for experienced ID, preferably with own factory. So that they have better control on the workmanship. Let me know if you need referral. i can share my contacts.

i had a very bad experience as well. for me, it was due to $. I tried to save some $ for my first reno and did the reno myself. i got all the sub-contractors from various sources and did all the coordination. It was a really bad experience. I got some of the procedure wrong and rectification were really costly. Eventually lived with some defects. The worst part was the water proofing. while i saw the water proofing done by the tiler, i did not know that to make sure it works, there is a need to conduct water testing. after that bad renovation experience, i have always advice my friend to look for an experienced ID/contractor. Not worth the savings, there are just too much to know and do. I have recently moved out from that house and bought a resale condo. after some recommendation from friends, i got to know a really good ID. The renovation was really painless this time. i managed to moved in before chinese new year!
