Ad hoc items like wc bowls, sink, taps, cooker all we got to buy ourselves. Contractor have this bad habit that dunno purposely or what. They like to lump everything together to make the home owner confuse. They don't like to breakdown the costing transparently to the owner. They afraid the of revealing ah. sometimes so piss with their attitude. If you somehow found some loophole that they purposely left out from the quotation, they would brush it off saying "aiya forget to add in" , "dun worry! will do for you one, even though not inside quotation." This kind of price, i think my id can quote better than them. Note: I just do a quick browsing and i may miss some detail. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
