Hi guys. Its been almost a year and im glad to say. Finally renovation works are ongoing. Been some delays due to bank loan issues and looking bad, it was not an easy journey man. Anw i stumbled across a few IDs and eventually, after not working out with that few, I have finally settled with a lady whom I am comfortable working with. Problems with previous IDs: 1) Stretch my budget by at least 50% of what I originally have in mind 2) Include a lot of unnecessary stuff that I do not want 3) Hidden items in quotes and act blur after I point them out 4) Everything tell me cannot be done, must be done his/her way or customize (leading to more costs) 5) Own ideas and do not bother listening to what I want The list goes on but finally I met the right one who could give me ideas adding on to what I have in mind, keep within my budget range and guide me through the whole process without being pushy (imagine it took me 6 months to get a loan after i paid the deposit to get the 3D drawings done and she patiently waited and always ready to get started). Very young lady with her own ID company but garang. Following are the 3D for my humble little nest. Kitchen is super small so just gotta make use of whatever space I have to the maximum and forgo a built in Microwave that i have always wanted hahaha. My room I opted for pole system wardrobe hoping that it will make my room look more spacious -

Thank you all so much for the useful inputs! It has been a hectic month for me as I was overseas most of the time and had to squeeze time out for contractor/ID sourcing. Almost wanted to give up and just get the next person who replies my email hahahaha but thank god I had the privilege of getting a sincere contractor who don't mind helping me out with so many things. What i was pretty impressed was that he has been very prompt in replying my emails, able to give me what I want, even tho some of the stuff I didnt tell him, I have no idea how he read my mind honestly speaking. So I'm gonna meet him this upcoming week on site to discuss further and hopefully able to seal the deal and start cracking. Meanwhile, I have already started carting some stuff from Taobao and just settled my bed (very important item imo hahahhaa). Sneak peek! Will continue to update!!! Till then, thank you for reading hehehehe -

Wow @trcd @Catt You guys are awesome! Thank you all so much for the kind inputs and for taking time to pen down so much valuable suggestions to help me! I have actually ideas for bathroom kitchen bedrooms living rooms everything, just that I'm unsure whether everything will look good altogether. Will contractor just follow exactly what I wanna do without taking into consideration for space planning? This is actually my only worry as of now, hehe. Anw i have shortlisted a few ID and contractors. Theres this one which i see positive feedbacks but when i texted him he basically replied, brg your floorplan to my office i quote on the spot. The end. Should i go ahead? What are the criteria u guys look out for when looking for id/contractors? Only the portfolio n years of exp? Cos im someone who goes by feel hahahaha not sure if i shld apply that in this case. hahhaaha -

Hi guys! Sorry for being MIA! It was 7th month and I have collected my keys one day before that so no renovation works yet! Now that its mid autumn soon, i still havent gotten a reliable contractor/ID yet. So much things are in my TB shopping carts yet to be carted out as well. The sequence of works are all wrong. Hahahaha. So if you guys have any reliable contractors/ID who could help me oversee the reno and give constructive inputs, (i will be overseas for a week so im in a dilemma) please feel free to pm me! Thanks in advance. *p.s. im really noob in these man -

Hi trcd! Thank you! Yes this is the northern part of SG, how did you know from the floor plan?! I'm amazed! Hahaha Is the bathroom considered big? I'm totally clueless what's the usual size and I think the kitchen and bedrooms are kind of small? -
Hello everybody! I have been secretly reading this since I have applied for my SBF and now that my key collection is happening soon, I'm really nervous about it! I am intending to handle the design and reno on my own by engaging a contractor my friend intro to me but I am still kinda lost about the procedures and stuff like that. Hoping to get some inputs and ideas and also to document this journey down since I realised that this is the best part about getting a place of my own and I will miss this phase once it's over! For a start, here's my floor plan! Do feel free to interact fellow tbloggers
