1. toilets only hack the floor tiles and change toilet accessories. Master toilet will have shower screen hmmm.... changing of toilet accessories will affect the wall tiles too. unless there arent any drilling from the pervious owner? intend to change the whole pipings? both toilets and kitchen? how about Construct shower kerb? or it is already in there? all water piping will be changed. The current owner is very simple, they don have much deco or furnitures in their home... our contractor say can keep the toilet wall tiles cos is in very good condition and furthermore is homogenous tiles that they have changed. As for the shower kerb , he said he will make the toilet floor abit slanted to the hole, so the water will flow into it... 2. kitchen; everything will change (tiles, floorings, cabinets) dont forget about the inlet and outlet of ur kitchen sink. will u be getting hot and cold or just onli cold? also ur washer pipings. how about washer and fridge base? not sure u have balcony or not. don't think i will be getting hot/cold water tap. washer pipings haven't really decide yet cos we haven't decide where to placed our washing machine... if you mean washer pipings for the washing machine.... The contractor will include the washer and fridge base for us. There's no service balcony in the kitchen unlike new houses now have it. 3. hacking of wall between MBR and bedroom 2 4. WIW indeed will make the whole area looks bigger. But if u intend to install air-con u will need consider about the BTU issues. wat's BTU? Ben3555 - yeah, alot of ID told us is quite tight but some do say is possible to get everything done then - as for the contractor we found, said is possible and he had done almost same reno within 2 weeks... amazing right? but no doubt we have to keep track of what they are doing closely... storeberry - congrats! - how's your reno and wedding prep going?

thanks to all for the concern.... Yeah...schedule is extremely tight for me cos there were delays while trying to get the house and the seller cannot move out earlier cos they haven't found a new home till recently.... sigh... Odielim - oh so in the contract got state when to finish the reno? so far only saw the quaotation that only indicates itemised prices...no date... i must go check it out Ben3555 - yeah trying to keep our an chuang date, cannot delay anymore all here are definitely more expert than me... will greatly appreciate all your feedback here... as for my reno, the following is the brief description on what we have planned to do: 1. toilets only hack the floor tiles and change toilet accessories. Master toilet will have shower screen 2. kitchen; everything will change (tiles, floorings, cabinets) 3. hacking of wall between MBR and bedroom 2 4. WIW 5. tv fixtures 6. false ceilings in living room and MBR 7. shoe cabinet 8. floor lamination for all rooms guess the above is able to get it done within 3 weeks right? If we keep going over to track what they have done, hopefully no hiccups.... what do you think?

Odielim - mine is a resale... do i still need to go through the defect process? jessi - hee nice to see you here too - oh in that case hopefully at least between 9th - 11th of May is a good date for me to start reno... The contractor say he can finish the reno within 3weeks cos we are not doing a lot except bathrooms and kitchen.... *crossed fingers*

sumobear -- thanks jessi -- yes, me the lup lup you know...hee
