Cheers, I didnt engage them...They came to my hse last sat to quote my study rm only..N it cost $4770. My hb spent about 1hr+ trying to tell them what he wants..but they always cant catch the idea...even though we draw n show him the pictures We wanted to have a bookshelves with some display...then they kept drawing a wardrobe... We said we wanted to put book n displays...then he said inside can have more shelvings.... When hb said we wanted to have a see through glass, they say we can ve a sand blast glass for the wardrobe door. My hb has to keep saying he doesnt need a wardrobe...After quite sometime, the carpenter drew a design like a kitchen cabinet...saying top can put books, bottom cabinet can put books n toys..then the top can put the display.. Finally I took over n tell them to just COPY the design that I want...N the quote comes up to $4770 Most probably I won't engage him... think he maybe able to do nice kitchen cabinet (as I received feedbacks from the forummers who PMs me) but he can't get the idea that we want..even though my hb already draw a nice design for him, top view, 3D view. So my hb dun want to take the risk plus the quotation price is high Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So my hb dun want to take the risk plus the quotation price is high Hi hazelk, Thanks for your info. I'm also looking for carpenter to build integrated study table with bookcase with glass display and top shelf. I'm also thinking to build wall-shelf in kitchen. I had sent my 3D design to them and got the quotation from them. But I'm also afraid that they don't really get idea. Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
