Your quote looks quite standard amongst contractors and ID firms that I have come across.

Do insist on using premium paint (3 in 1 type) for item 26. They normally give you the cheapest or mid-range paint from Nippon or ICI. As it is almost $25K w/o electrical works, your contractor should oblige. The other thing is item 29, insist on a Maxden cockcroach-proof/odour-proof chute. What the contractor is giving you is just a SS chute. Cockcroaches and smell will come in. The Maxden chute plus labour usually costs $450. I know because I installed it in my home and my mother's.
