Farah Dinah 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2018 Hi everyone, I'm new here and need as much help and advice regarding house renovations. My partner and I will be getting our keys to our first ever home at the end of December. A 5-room flat , 1356sqft / 125.9sqm. How do I go about saving cost for renovation works? Initially thought of overlaying with vinyl to save cost, but are there cheaper hacking and tiling services available? Definitely would want to renovate the 2 toilets too but packages a saw are 20k?? We are on a tight budget and were thinking of getting just the basics done. Example:- 1. flooring 2. installation of 5/6 ceiling fans (current state are ceiling lights only) 3. chemical washing 4. painting whole unit 5. getting 3 built in wardrobes 6. toilets (about most likely not affordable) How would we know that the person we liaise with to get a quotation from the company is an ID or a contractor ? The 2 companies that we are considering are - & Comfort Home Carpentry. Anyone has contacts or recommendations that is reliable but provide cheap / affordable services?
