hmm.. pondering on this .. how does your friend carpentary calculate?

Does it usually count by Lenght and Height only or it has to factor in Lengthx Widthx Height . Then use it to estimate the charges?

Thanks for your revert : )

By the way, do you have sound system? Speakers? Karaoke? DVD/CD/MP3 player etc?

How are these being handle? Installation by who? The electrical person?

Looking forward for your sharing ; )

Any kind soul can advise whether the charges is reasonable?

Also not sure if anything has miss out... don't want to turn up extra charges later on.. of course if given FOC then I don't mind.. worst case is turn out to be exorbitant later if not known..

so just want to double check : )

Thanks! ; )

eh thanks for your pm but I think I NEED more help than capable to give help here. Haha.

Am new too.

Thanks for all the advises. Will input if I have comments.

Oh I just bought this from their showroom at Parkmall. Includes mirror cabinet, tap, sink and the cabinet below. Hmm it's in glossy spraypaint kinda thing, told to be water resistent. After some bargain, its 719+delivery 50=$769. Is that okie?

Also bought a tv console and coffeetable all in white(1700), and a country/french style side table(410) from Ecolinks at $2109 including delivery. Pretty pleased with it. Because the former got tons of storage, I like. Haha. Well rounded design too...aiya..too bad never take picture...

Tv console + coffeetable = 1700, not very indulgent hor? Reasonable or cheap?

Hi doremon,

if u are asking on the connection of wires for the players etc, it should be easy, need not to be done by any electrician...

[pinkpetter 0]

mmm although 17k seems like a lot of money.. but you are doing quite a lot.. it seems quite reasonable though. Have you seen workmanship and all?

that mirror+cabinet+tap+sink seems ok. the same setup from ikea costs about $550 without tap.

tv console + coffeetable at 1700 seems quite high. i would say above average price, but you never show picture so can't really say.

Hi doremon2009,

my electricial quote is same as rondy except - lighting point $28. Will you change the whole house's sockets (single or double)? The electrical quote will increase as reno progress.

from your reno quotation, do u have any hacking for the whole house? i can see u have lots of carpentry. Do ask if the quotation include soft closing, inner material (ask if this is white pvc material).

hi doremon,

got your pm, here's my next humble 2 cents (so now u owe me 4 cents... hehehe):

1.02

can i assume it's 3ft depth, not width?

since 3ft depth + mirror, price looks ok.

(have u seen their showflat / workmanship example yet?)

illogical :

1.08 + 1.09 + 1.10 (Bedroom #3's Cabinet)

for this total 5ft L @ $1,120 => $224/ft L

but compare vs point 1.16 (Master Bedroom's Wardrobe)

( total 6ft L @ $1,200 => $200/ft L )

suggest u ask for $200/ft L for this Bedroom #3's Cabinet.

logically, it uses less material (and probably less work too) than the Main Bedroom's Wardrobe.

another inconsistency :

( 1.08 + 1.09 + 1.10 ) vs ( 1.14 + 1.15 )

cancelling off :

1.09 against 1.15 ;and

1.10 against 1.14

this means point 1.08 = $1,120 - $320 = $800 for "02 no. of full-height cabinett Approx. 22" L

this works out to approx. $436/ft L <--- ridiculous ! ( are you being ripped off for about $200+/ft ? )

( 1 ft = 12 inch; => 22 inch = 1.83 ft )

hope this helps.
