lookaround 24 Report post Posted May 24, 2014 Hi Milko7,I think most of the itemized item on your quote seems to be on the high side.1)There seemed to some items that they double-charge you on the quote.2)some of the item like general cleaning, does it mean chemical wash or just normal cleaning ? To be on the safe side, i guess you better talk it out with the ID on this.3)I believe there are also several missing items in the quote. ( ie: electrical works, unless you are able to do it yourself.)4)is there any 3d drawings ?5)Any freebies or goodwill discount ?6)and many many more..Some of the items seemed to be on the high side, i think it would be better if you could clarify with the renovator on what are the materials he used ?Perhaps you shld collect more quotes and compare.

Sheridan 4 Report post Posted June 10, 2014 I'm a laminate & vinyl flooring supplier, and I guess the vinyl quoted seems to be on the high price, that price seems more like laminate or Engineered Hardwood price. But I can't say for sure as I'm not sure how big your area is.Just my 2 cents. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
milko7 0 Report post Posted June 17, 2014 Hi Sheridan,Thanks for the advise.My flat is a standard 4rm so the size is 92sqm. We will only be doing the living area and also 3 bedrooms. HDB will do the cement screed for us.I'm a laminate & vinyl flooring supplier, and I guess the vinyl quoted seems to be on the high price, that price seems more like laminate or Engineered Hardwood price.

Randy 2 Report post Posted November 14, 2014 Can PM me the contact details? thank you. I think this is just the company marketing method.Things to note.1) They did not quote any carpentry works (usually they will make up high to cover the package)2) what if you need longer length than what you needed ( what will be the price?)3) The services and their workmanshipI am saying this cause some of my friends did approach some company and end up their renovation cost is higher than mine.

MelanieTan 2 Report post Posted November 14, 2014 Hey,I think your window grill pricing is ridiculous. It's just aluminum grilles and not invisible grills or anything. 1.8k for the whole house is WAY too much, see if they can deduct 500-800. Also for the bases with tiles, I have seen quotations at 110-120. 3 bases for 450 is a shocking amount."Supply & Install 1 fixed x 1 casement clear glass shower screen at MBR bathroom - $650" << How tall and wide is your shower screen? if it's higher than your head and all the way from wall to wall, the pricing is reasonable.Overall, I think the ID is not honest about pricing, you may want to give them a miss. That's just IMO. Did you hire a large company? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
