Possible To Have Renovation While We Still Live In The House?

[CRV48 2]

We've been living in our HDB unit for more than 10 years adn i feel that the house need a bit of reno.

However, we're still living in it, do you think it willbe possible to have the whole place renovated.

what i mean by renovation;

1. replace all 6 air con units (with 2 compressor)

2. renovate the whole kitchen. (with cabinets)

3.fix up the wooden floorings

4. replace all 6 wooden doors ( might need to fix up the frames as well)

5. paint up the whole house.

Can this be achieve with the whole family ( family of 3 adults, 1 toddler and 1baby) still living in the unit???

Thanks in advance with the comments...........

if u can live with the noise n dust, in particular which maybe bad for the kids when they breathe in.

U could either stay at your relative's place or book in hotels until the renovation for your flat is completed.

easy as that becox there r many out there who did the same when their homes required a facelift.

i think the wooden flooring poses the biggest problem...u going to relay the floor for the whole house?

how & where are you going to move your furniture to?

my parents renovated the flat when we were still staying there..its a masionette..

1. kitchen knocked and rebuilt everything

2. the toilet in the kitchen was hacked and rebuilt

3. the 2 toilets upstairs were hacked & rebuilt

4. minor renovation to 1 of the room

they did it in stages so we could still stay there, but it was a mess..

we survived though...so its up to you..whether you can live with the mess and come to a solution with the contractor..

I feel that it is better to move out because the most important is u need to take care of your health
