starry_83 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2009 Don't go for ID for hacking.. look for a sub-contractor. Should cost less than $1000 in total for hacking. My ID quote me $3500 for whole house hacking and dismantling and disposing of cabinets. So expensive. I am hoping to bring this price down. so bringing it down to $1000 will be reasonable eh.

If I rem correctly u spray paint yr tile right. regards Simon That was why I don't compare the quote cos is hacking different things so price for hacking is very subjective. I only posted what the hacker quoted my friend on his items. To know the actual cost, I need to email the hacker on what the items happy pie wanted to do, this will be more actual and private estate and HDB also got different price.
