MaCe 3 Report post Posted October 30, 2007 I confirmed engaging Ho Bee... Maybe mine is a small scale reno, not overhaul whole flat, just mainly on kitchen & toilets, doors & windows... Patrick told me will take around 4-5 weeks... Once i choose my tiles & met up with Ah Keong (report to wk today after hospitalised for a week) for discussion on kitchen carpentry, he can start wk liao... Like to ask those who have engaged Ho Bee & take up bank loan, u will take the final quotation & go to bank for approval right? I have some questions to ask in private, Any kind souls, pls pm me if you are free... i need consultation... hee...shoot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blossom0501 1 Report post Posted October 30, 2007 hi, have no choice but to give up on Ho Bee as Patrick said my reno works will take at least 8 weeks to complete as we want to hack kitchen, 2 toilets and the balcony. We need to move in by 1st week of Dec as we need to vacate current place. Can only pray that the contractor (or ID) we intend to engage will do a good job. Hope I will have the time to create the reno blog. !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FifiGal 0 Report post Posted November 2, 2007 Die... din do research on hoob & hob... maybe will drop by Poh Joo or UU...I met patrick yesterday, mine lagi even smaller job Dunno the cost yet, he will give me quote next week. But he say its a 2 week job and no problem to squeeze me in before year-end if I engage him. Nice friendly guy to talk to I oso need to go research hob & hood, but i got limitation of hob size coz I'm not hacking up the old wetworks. Just remove the old spoilt hob & plonk in new one. So other pple can consider brand, color, design...i first thing is look at the size (sigh). There is another old thread somewhere in this forum (under design/kitchen I think), 7 pages of comments on some hobs/hoods, u might wanna read read oso.BTW, Rinnai is having some hob+hood offers now, i picked up a brochure from an IMM shop which is also available on their website. Now i am looking thru. Then saw newspaper advert today that Techno having sale 2-4Nov. Then of coz i prob go Poh Joo too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
