h4happy 1 Report post Posted September 13, 2007 Well I started hunting for contractors/id during month of Aug (as I am not sure when the key is coming, probably end of year), it was very stressful and lots of time talking to id and contractors.I took whole month to send mail and arrange for meet up.Encountered lots of experiences (good and bad) and learn many things too. Then I came across this web and find it very very useful especially lots of tips on renovations.This Sep, we went to see granites and marbles...lots of choices to choose from but price is hmmmm very high. Went to Hup Kiong, etc. Balestier rd and SBH (collected a few samples).This weekend might go and hunt for the granites tiles again so that we will know what tiles we want.I will post the 3 shortlisted granites later on (I dont have my camera with me now).Right now, I have slow down.....to consolidate the quotations I gathered.
