Thanks wa !!!, the carpentry is very ex leh !!! double of market rate !!! kitchen cabinet market rate is about $90-100 per ft, your quote is $200. why do you need 17ft solid top ? if your 17ft kitchen cabinet is both top & bottom, then the most you only need about 9ft solid top.

Thanks Big money. That a very important point that you have point out. I think that very expensive too. The contractor just decide everything and push me the quote. Anyway, no harm done as it is just a quote. I am still looking for new quote here and there. Thanks.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
