I see.... Thanks thanks!! Cos hubby went to the 五金 shop to order ICI paint for the whole house and the bill came up to 1400++!!! Was so shocked cos it has exceeded much more from what is quoted by our ID, *, which is only $1100.. In the end, we asked the ID to do the paint job for us lor... Painting is scheduled this weekend.. our HO is scheduled next friday! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Painting is scheduled this weekend.. our HO is scheduled next friday! hehe...i went to those old shop houses paint shops...the paint is cheaper and eversince we did our own painting, i've learned alot about painting....like sealer is actually quite important and some might not use the good brand for that which could result in poor paintjob not obvious now but future....also for us we get to choose a few different colors...i realise most quotations come with certain no of colours....along the way we mix and match some colours to achieve different effects....after saying all these if no time or interest in painting, then its better to leave to the expert....remember to check with them if they paint the door frames.... your handover is fast....the last time i spoke to hubby, he say you might be choosing defong....* has pretty good reviews as well....isn't is fun to see the transformation of your house?
