zph19101 2 Report post Posted March 1, 2017 the quotation is not detail enough. and carpentry prices are subjective to design. Im renovating my resale now. You wanna contact my ID for a quote? I feel that mine was reasonable and detailed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually we are still considering, whether to get a contractor to do all, or we ownself find different sub-con for our renovation, no hurry to move in anyway. Pros: price should be cheaper than above quotation by around $3-4k? Cons: we dont know where to get our permit for renovation Ours is an EA of 138 sq thou.. i just cannot stand the quotation for toilet and PD door, the price of hacking 1 master toilet alone and doing it up is $5400, abit too much in my opinion I think your first item is not only hacking of walls but also include dismantling kitchen cabinets. Your quote does not have enough breakdown with detailed measurement for us to gauge. You might need to find a few more quote to compare. If you want to hire sub-con to do the job then you must be prepared to have the time to be there to coordinate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kangeroo168 10 Report post Posted February 25, 2017 Normally, u can't get a Reno permit yourself. This permit can only be done by hdb register Contractors . that saying, the tiling of the toilet mostly will be done by the contractor, because no one will just help u apply a permit and let u use your own people. Reason is because, if the works are not done properly e.g leaking, hdb will find back the Licence holder, and not the owner, Nor the worker who done the works. for carpentry , nope u don't need a Reno permit.

No measurement on that so can't comment 3 to 5. Cost of doing a toilet. More or less ok. 6. No measurement, but to me, it is quite ex since toilet are quite small 7-16. Ok 17. Must see design 18-19. Must see design 20-22. Ok 23. Elect price more or less is ok 24. No dimension given but again will pm u hacker to double check 25. Glass must have dimension in order to calculate the pricing thanks!! i thought hacking is expensive too, $1300 for only 1 toilet. its EA by the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
