Why the shower screen for MBR & Common toilet so expensive ? Is it sliding type or 1 fix 1 swing type? I was quoteed for 1 fix 1 swing for my MBR toilet for $380 only, including installation !Did they specify the brand of the hood, hob, sink and aircon ? System 2 inverter aircon for $2500 to me is very expensive ! If go for Panasonic Sys 2 Inverter, you can get at ard $2k if I am not wrong.

The shower screen for MBR 1 fix 1 swing...as for the common toilet its like "L" shape, therefore 2 sliding, 2 fix. Wah! urs so cheap! Which reno co?For the hood, hob, sink and aircon he said its very subjective...so wat he gave was a rough idea though... Hubby prefers Mitsubishi for aircon...outside market like Gain city, Courts is also abt $2.3k...If panasonic is alot cheaper than we shld consider...thanks for the heads up!

Refer to the link below, look at post #227 for contacthttp://www.renotalk.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=2460&pid=735881&st=200entry735881The price is reasonable, but end up I never instal the shower screen due to safety reason. Hubby heard lots of scary story about shower screen that just shredded into pieces suddenly. This make him worry about our 2 kids, so scrap the shower screen, replaced by shower curtain instead. This gives us more space for shower as movement not restricted by the fix panel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
