HI caDAVEr! my home renovation was recently completed by Fuse Concept (although not Vincent) and I am very happy with the renovation in terms of workmanship, quality and pricing. It may not be the cheapest, but I feel that that I am paying for quality and ease of mind. I didn't have to come by everyday to check on the progress, as I could leave it to the ID to do QC. Although there were some minor hiccups along the way, everything was resolved and handover was as scheduled. We've been staying in the new home for 1 month already and we're very very happy with how the renovations turned out. It was better than we expected and will definitely recommend others to sign with Fuse if the design is up to their expectations. Do ask Vincent to show you his completed projects, so that you can take a look at the quality & workmanship. It is a common practice to do so!

Hi Eric, I went to your blog and realised that Dan brought me to your house to see the workmanship before I decided to go with Fuse Concept. It was your wife who met with us. Yes I totally agree with you that Dan is accommodating and he will try his best to incorporate our needs with his design concept. My renovations are completed already and he delivered as promised within 1 month without compromising on workmanship and I am looking forward to moving in next week.

I use a variety of 3M hooks in my home for different items. The maximum weight each hook can hold is indicated on the box. I agree that if you are afraid of the painting falling or getting pulled down by kids, you should drill and then secure it with the 3M velcro. It's more secure that way. Homefix has a wide range of 3M items. You can check out the heavy duty type. i saw a large 3M shelf in Homefix are Marina Square, which is their flagship store.

I just started renovation last thursday and it's great to hear that you have also signed with Fuse!! After my materials selection, ID brought me to select my lights & ceiling fans from Premier Lighting along Geylang Road. The PL lights aren't the cheapest as I've read in some threads that some forummers got their lights for $18! But I knew beforehand that there are many types of such lights and you pay for better quality. They supposedly also use the better Osram bulbs. I got my dining lamp there as well and I feel it was quite a good deal as I saw a similar design at Molecule and it's more than $1k but i got it for $600. Remember to bargain! As for sinks etc, i'm sure Fuse has their regular supplier near their office. But if you have your own preference for anything, he is most willing to accommodate. Just get the measurements correct and you can order it on your own and arrange for delivery according to the renovation schedule that the ID provides. E.g. I got my balcony ceiling fan from somewhere else and my ID just told me which date and time to arrange for delivery and installation, according to the reno schedule. Hope your reno experience will be a great one!

i saw some nice clocks on revivehome website ... but i dunno how to create the hyperlink. go to www dot revivehome dot com

I met up with them and got a quote as well. Quite reasonable pricing and the designer, Sun, listens to your needs and will weave it into her proposal. I decided to go with another ID as my husband preferred the other design. Quality wise, i think it's quite good as it was my friend who recommended me to LS2 and her house is still in good condition after more than 1 year plus a baby boy at home. The workmanship is good, from what i can see when I visited her house. Hope this helps and good luck in finding an ID!

All the colours are great! Lots of people use Lavender Mist huh... I especially like the green (no. 4) and deep purple (no. 2)... what colour is that? Are they all dulux?

Hi GTeton, Fanco's website is http://www.fancosg.com/.

Hi Taz, Thanks! Yes it looks like an Elmark, saw it in their website. Am glad that you have good comments about it! They have more colours now, even matt and glossy black! I'll decide when i'm doing material selection with my ID, to see which colour goes best with the overall decor. I'm going to get 4 fans - living room, MBR, study and balcony - but probably in different colours and designs. Would it be better to get from Elmark directly, so that they can get their guys to install? if you buy it from retailers, who does installation? I understand from forummers that ceiling fans need to be balanced properly. Other brands like Fanco and Amasco also have similar designs but the prices vary quite a bit. Elmark is the cheapest so far.

thanks mparade, i know what you mean. unfortunately, i'm not going to spend more than $1k on a ceiling fan, as much as i would love to! the budget is rising everyday and it's really scary how everything adds up. it's like holding the wedding all over again but this time, no ang pows! u live in marina parade? we're pretty near then!

yes i found out this morning when i called Elmark. *gulp* i guess will settle for a normal stainless steel fan for my balcony...

where is the elmark showroom? isit the one at ubi? they sell elmark & fanco there? any other brands? did u check out amasco fans when u were shopping? i think the black one that i like is an amasco twister. i saw a similar one on the fanco website but not sure if it comes in black.

I have no idea either... but there was an earlier thread abt them that was also "censored". I was considering to use this ID as well but felt that they are quite expensive and workmanship is only ok... depending on who is your ID and which contractor he/she uses. After seeing 7 IDs, i signed up with Fuse Concept on Sunday because i liked his designs and i'm sure he can do a good job. Workmanship and quality wise also very good, although it may be a little more expensive than others, but not too much! before u select your ID, request to see a recently completed project of his to check workmanship. Design wise, you can improvise from all the proposals but workmanship & quality is something that shouldn't be compromised.
