What colors do you love and what colors you really don’t want to see at all? Do you have some picture of an ideal HDB Flat in your mind? Do you want a traditional look or a contemporary look and feel of your home? How you are going to use a particular space? Are there any special needs of yours that you want to be met? And, last but not the least, how much budget you have set aside to accomplish your vision and is that enough? Well, when it comes to setting a budget for home renovation, people most of the times forget to include additional expenses that might not be covered by a basic renovation package. The average amount it takes to renovate a typical HDB flat is about $20k-$30k. This amount excludes additional expenses such as the cost of new furniture, lights, curtains, air conditioning and more. Item Price Cost of lights plus electrician $4000 Cost of curtains $1000 Window grills $500 Air Conditioning $3500 Cement Screeding $1000 Kitchen Appliances $2000 Fridge $1000 Washing Machine $1000 Television $750 Dining Table Set $750 Sofa Set + Coffee Table $1500 Study Table Set $1000 Queen Sized Bed $2000 Total $20,000 Article is from: http://8design.com.sg/services/bto-home-renovation/ Edited May 29, 2016 by EightDesignStudio Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
antagon 0 Report post Posted August 12, 2016 There are many bad eggs in this industry. Please be careful of this "interior designer" by the name of Eugene Tan. (Mobile 9***3882). Uses alot of vulgarities and threats of violence. Police report was made against him. He also claimed some lower grade supplier is a partner of the company when it is not (probably to get commission from the supplier). Very unethical and gangster behavior. He jumps around to various different ID firms so I will not state the ID company name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
