sanntan 0 Report post Posted August 16, 2010 wow.. you agent even help u in ur renovation ah .. hahaha.. good sia.. if u not doing the floor toilet.. everything could be very fast... Yah, he's been very patient with me... Cos I got so so so many questions and I keep bugging him, but he never fails to entertain me. Nah, I don't need to hack ANYTHING at all. Because the flooring and all that done up pretty nicely. Will be posting some pictures of the current living conditions! Floor is done with homogeneous tiles, kitchen cabinet is pretty and well maintained, toilet 1 pink theme and 1 baby blue theme, very nice. just need to change mirror and install sink/cabinet. And build some settees in some places of the flat. I guess this is where my reno pricing goes up - the custom made stuff! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not just ex, they are so busy they do not really have time for you. Take so many weeks to come back with a simple sketch of the layout plan. For me, it was just good as a stepping stone, to get some ideas of what can be done, what to say and ask etc. In the end, still fall back on the good old RT recommendations. Hmm .. so far so good .. hope i will not be disapointed! Met an ID from the fair, also in yr list, the worst I ever met. First impression really good, then after almost a month, asked me to meet up to have a look at the proposed layout. When I was there, realised that the ID did not even do anything, then on the spot just enlarge my floorplan and say maybe can do this here and do that there!!! Then before I can say further, his senior brought the flyer and started promoting their packages! Hey, we are just talking about design right, why is she harping on $$$? And you know what - she does not even know how to differentiate a door from a window in the floorplan! ?!?!? Edited August 16, 2010 by froggy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
