Our Little Cozy Cocoon

Recommended Posts

Dunno leh.. My hubby to be is the one liaising with all the contractor, aircon man, electrician guys.. I just handle the budget hehe..

Actually 1k difference la.. cos the 6.2k includes changing of pipings. But still.. 1k is alot too leh.. can do alot of carpentry work..

Simon, I saw your post on Henry's electrician and though tempted to engage him since he is good at after sales service but he also quoted us very high leh.. $50 per new lighting point and we are doing 30+ downlights.. so it is already more than $1,500!! :jawdrop: This quote is pretty good if it is for conceal price but.. we are doing false ceiling so abit blur why the electrician quote us $50 leh.. sigh.. :(

conceal power point i know more expensive

but false ceiling powerpoint shouldn't be leh . Is there a misunderstanding ?. which electrician u talk to ? Or maybe u want to talk to henry abt that ?

Looking for good contractors? Click here for your request

ya.. ask Henry about it liao.. he is checking out for us. We are thinking of doing cove lights in the living room which needs 8 more lightings point for the T5. And some additional stuff (can't remember off hand). He will absorb all these additional stuff but the price (total at $2.6k) remains. Dunno if we should go with that..

Work has stalled for a while. Cos we needed to test out the existing aircon pipes to see if they are still good. After 3 days of testing, it turns out well :rofl: so that significantly reduced the cost.

But that does not mean we can start work yet! Cos we have not settled on the electrical works with Henry, so we need to wait another day. Thank god we are not in a hurry to move.

However, I am rather anxious to get all these over and done with so I can see the end results..

So I can only imagine the agony of those who need to move it fast but need to delay it due to unexpected problems.

*waiting patiently*

Anyway, on a seperate note, Xmas and New year's day fall on Friday this year.. so i am already comtemplating on my leave. If everything goes well, I probably will have 2 weeks off and I will just stay and enjoy my new home! CAN'T WAIT!! :wub:
