crazygirl48 0 Report post Posted January 10, 2008 Just want to clarify..The hollow tiles in toliets meant for the floor not the walls, cos the walls are hollow anyway...Ok..where is the other thread btw?me at 14th floor!Just went thru 2nd round of discussion with my fren who do reno...Now waiting for revised quotation...Intend to look for 2 more IDs to compare...I don't want to look for too many IDs cos outside market is roughly the same....My hubby has no patience sit for hrs to repeat same things to a few IDs...Cos 2 friends went outside to ask, all charge much higher...Of course, my fren will charge lesser cos he run this business on his own and has no shop so no head cost to cover....That may be the reason why he can keep his cost low...So far, he manage to get 1 business when I posted his website in forum..Below is his website...http://www.lengthnbreadth.com/main.htmlHis portfolio online not updated..He has more to show you if you meet him up...

crazygirl48 0 Report post Posted January 12, 2008 No need to report within 1 week lah..As long as u haven't start reno, can ask submit the defects to the office at the contractor's office at the carpark there...They will be there until august or november this year..After they are closed, we will have to report to town council which is very troublesome and take along time to come down to check...

Commando 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2008 has anyone confirmed their ID?I am getting quite confused and worried . We had more or less confirmed 1 but i worry that we didn't include some items into the quotation and end up, have to pay more.I haven't confirmed mine as I'm still sourcing. If u didn't include the items in to the quote and the quote as been approved (confirmed and paid for) by you, ask the ID how much more u need to pay to add those items. Unless you mean those items you discussed with the ID and added verbally but not in black and white. Roughly what are those items? I think they can +/- a little if it's not too much.

We had more or less confirmed 1 but i worry that we didn't include some items into the quotation and end up, have to pay more.hmm we r stil sourcin ard. have gotten quotes for 4, namely stiles, baroque, decormark & inner view. but so far, only decormark and inner view closer to our budgets i tink. however, dun reali have any we'll particularly impressed with. any comments on these IDs? haiz, searchin for a suitable ID reali is a very tedious process.

crazygirl48 0 Report post Posted January 15, 2008 Below the defects form, there is a clause there indicated..."Submit within 7 days after key collection or before renovation starts"Becos once renovation starts, it is not their lability anymore...So is best everything properly first then start renovation if you are not in the rush to move in...If you are particular abt the open door practices, better dun anyhow open...must choose a date which both of you do not have any clashes with the day..Just like date of renovation start and date of moving in also must choose date..But I think if you ask the old folks, they sure ask you must choose date..Cos I told my mum abt key collection date, she warned me not to open the door unless the date is chosen!Hahahaha!So far, I only talked to my fren abt the reno stuff...My hubby has no patience to talk to a few IDs and repeat the same stuff for a few hrs..I removed some carpentry and also added in a few after the 2nd rd of discussion..Hubby warned me not to add things anyhow..Cos now over budget by 2K..
