I just completed my EA renovation in Sembawang earlier in the year. Initial quote was close to 80k and I added quite a lot of thing. Came up to 97K not including electrical works... Did a lot of carpentry though

Hi.. do u have Tblog? Can link me up? Curious on yr EA reno. Hopefully i can steal some ideas. If can.. mind if u share yr qoute?

My agent told me that at the worst case scenario, I will only have 20 days to reno my place. 

And so over the last week, we meet up with 1 ID (Calvin) and 1 contractor (Jeryl), to compare their qoutes and views. 

Still waiting for their qoutes. Well for the new place.. this is my kind of concept that am looking forward to.

Finally we have gotten both our qoutes and after much consideration, we have decided to go with MR J. And we will be having another discussion tonight to finalize on the qoute. 

In the midst of all  this excitement, cldnt wait to start making our purchase from Taobao.

And last nite .. dear Mr contractor came to our home to finalize on the qoute. And after much bargaining to lower the price, we also ended up upgrading a few items and add here and there. 

We have decided to go for Compactplus Top instead of solid surface. My next dilema is to chose which Compactplus top to go with my white cabinet.

Thanks! The first one as in 35.70? The lighter shade? 

[JohnJohn 13]

I think a darker shade would be a nice look, so 35.50 for me.

I was thinking of that too. It will contrast better with white cabinet.
