ClockworkO 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2009 Hi all... I need help & recomendations.. I wish to cement screed the entire house floor , except the 2 bathrooms. I basically want an Industrial look. Anyone have any recomendations for a contractor who can do a good job in cement scredding + application of epoxy coating ? How much would it cost , I understand cement screeding is normally FOC and it's ard $400 for the epoxy coating. So how much is the total estimate including labour ? Thks for all your time~ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pinkpetter 0 Report post Posted January 16, 2009 The cement screeding on my kitchen walls is free la. The epoxy coating and plastering cost us $300. How much it costs depends on the floor area... Do the current tiles need to be hacked up? There was one forummer who tried to do cement screeding and the whole thing ended up in a mess and he had to pay to have the place tiled. I think it was Sumobear (you can go find his T-blog chat) So you have to make sure that the ID/contractor you find has done this before and knows what to do...

My plan is to just get a kitchen & 2 toilets reno package Most ID firms charge betwen $12-$15. Additional request is : Hack kitchen wall ( open concept ) , Hack whole house tiles Hack existing wadrobe Dispose of debris and cement screeding for entire house. Other carpentry works will be done by a separate carpenter, can save up to 50%-80% on cost. Coz my friend got lobang. But most ID die-die want me to get tiles, Or they are not too sure about cement screeding.....aiyah !! I want my house to look like void deck cannot meh ? heehee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
