h4happy 1 Report post Posted August 27, 2007 Good morning neighboursLast night, talk to one id and he asked me whether the piping is outside or inside.I told him I am not sure. He told me if it is conceal, then it is ok (dont need to change copper pipe).Ask why?He said in future if kitchen cabinet is up, and sway sway pipe leak (due to pvc, then got problem liao.Cabinet might have to tear down. That cost money!So anyone knows whether pipe is outside or inside??Went to IMM on Friday, speak to some IDs, only remember two of them..:-U-home:-Basic Package around 13kID seems busy, so he only go thru the basic package with us.Not pushy, seems friendlySample reno pictures looks not bad..Frontier:-Like their design, simple and modern.. Showed us some of their wall paper, tiles and lamination samplesNo basic package so we go thru the things we want to do and they will send us their proposal in 3 weeks time.ID seems very pro and able to provide good suggestion but got a bit of "artistic" attituteAfter going thru the things we want, he quoted us around 28k! (overbudget)But he will itemize our reno so that we know the cost, it's something like ala carte menu..So we will struck out those that we dont want and stick to our budget!Still sourcing around for IDs...Hi Got the quote from U home, way above my budget.Too bad......unable to let them do.. really....The id is very good and understanding and we can even click.But due to budget, I have no choice.....Tis afternoon my bf n I went to see some show flats at blk 25A, but too bad all of them closed.

So, perhaps start to design our layout first. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nemofc 0 Report post Posted August 27, 2007 (edited) Yes, better make sure got a good contractor and when it is near completion, then get really to source for home applicances!How is your searching for contractors going on????Any good to recommend???We hvn't start to source for contractor/s yet. Because, prefer to get keys & see the "Real" flat/ layout than the "Floorplan". Able to see clearer else will be double work for the contractor. Maybe, will source & standby for good contrctors before approach them. You have recommendation? how about the rest? Edited August 27, 2007 by nemofc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
