well, to me, is just not a matter of tolerance. it is planning and ideal. once renovation is done, there is no turn back, so to me, i am quite careful and discreet in doing it. Regarding deep pocket ? i guess u mean tight budget. Indeed, u right right, i am quite tight in budget as a renovation of a house could easily come to 50k and even 100k is quite normal nowadays.
Thanks

Yes. No turning back.
That's what I said, high level of tolerance.
Assuming the finished work is not what you expected, you should also accept it as long as it's well done.
For eg, you pick a paint color from the color chart & the painter proceed with his work.
Then one day u went to ur hse & saw the paint color is not what you had in mind (color chart differs u know?), you can:
1) accept & live with it OR
2) get the painter to repaint
U get what I'm trying to say?
Next, deep pocket = huge budget.

the hoob & hob are the brand of IKA. Yet another china made product which is the same factory of Fagor. I get it from Puchong, if u really interested, send me a pm, I will guide you how to get it cheaper. Not bad compare wit other brands. The hob is very quiet and yet still powerful.

That is why, whenever come to renovation, we should not just get rough and whole estimation from the contractor, we have to break up calculation and truely understand how they charge us.
Beforehand, what size of tile u use ? is it 1ft*1ft or 2ft*2ft ?

2ft x 2ft.. actually what is standard market price?
QUOTE(ejan_ @ Jan 30 2008, 01:50 PM)

ok, normally, the charges is about rm 120.00 to rm 150.00 It depends on the contractor if he sub it to other people to perfom the job, or if he rent the equipment. Most probably, RM 120.00 is most reasonable. the price should inclusive of hacking job, and remodelling of the whole table tops with tiles.
Not bad. I'm still calculating the cost for my new house renovation. Adds up to 20k. I wanna faint 
Scope include built in cabinets for all 3 rooms, bathroom (glass door to separate wet and dry area), kitchen cabinets, air conds, fans, furnitures, bla bla bla..

with all the scopes u mentioned, expecially added up with air conds, that should be quite cheap. But, of course, it all depends on the criterials and size.
Keep a reference price as a comparison as the price i suggested, thus you can come out with the calculation by yourself rather than get a rough and round calculation form your respective contractors.

Hi a6meister, don't mind pm me the contractor name and hp or shop address that help you do the concrete table for 2 X 2 tile? Look reasonable RM 120 per foot. Just now I ask one shop quote me RM 160.00 per foot. Crazy expensive. My whole L-shape I think if I didn't measure wrong it will be 15.5ft. I only want to do the concrete table no cabinet yet as I'm out of budget.
Hey I like the black color you did. Can I follow same color as you lol but sink I will go for square one haha..TQ.
Oh yeah, I'm located at Jalan Puchong.

yes, some contractor do charge up to 160 per square feet for the job, which include the labour. But, nare in mind that a 2*2 tiles is only about rm 25 to 30 a piece.
ok, i will try to find out the contractor number cause the number is in my office. By the way, where is ur location ? thanks
ok, time for me to show the paint colour of my house. I personally think the colour scheme had been messed up by me and my fiancee decision, but, nothing i can do since had bought the paint.
I did all the painting for this whole semi detached house, which took me almost 1 month, cause i only did it during weekend, but cost saving. it took me almost 7 cans of 5 litres NIPPON SATIN GLO, which is rm 78 a can.
the whole painting work had save me about 2k if compare to i hire some one to do, plus, i can confirm that my own workmanship is not bad at all compare with the professional painter.

My new house kitchen, or should I say my mom's kitchen. 
Whole cabinet, RM7K+.
Hood & Hob RM5K+.
My new house renovation not much, around RM40K+. The people here spent more, close to RM100K. The corner house behind even more powderful, more than RM200K+. His house is like a freaking traditional museum style sial, not my type but greatly done. He also bought like 6 palm trees to put them at the alley, this fella most probably got too much money to spend...
My whole house is using Dulux Supreme, except for 2 rooms. There are 5 rooms in total. I'm using another Dulux, because Superme does not have the color that I want. Supreme is pretty expensive RM130+. We hired a painter, workmanship RM2.5K.
My apple green, FTW!

Most lightings are bought from IKEA some from wholesale shop, air-cond got "lubang" to get dealer price. 1.5HP = RM7xx, 2HP = RM1,2xx (York brand). Fans bought from wholesale shop.
My grill protector cost RM5K for whole house. We picked a simple grill, it's easier when we need to open the curtain. I don't like fancy, flower type of grills. Disadvantage are, hard to see cleary outside, hard to clean, it's sharp will get hurt easily and etc.

its really hard to give any meaningful advise without knowing your layout.
but some common sense suggestions:
1) if you do a lot of cooking, may have to consider knocking down partitions and take up some of the surrounding areas
2) buy a smaller fridge!
3) dont worry so much abt it. a lot of ppl worry a lot abt small kitchen but eventually they hardly even use it. makan luar
How about grill and wiring pricing ? Any guideline to share ?

i would like to share a little about the kitchen sink and tape. i spent quite a heft amount on these 2 items as i believe it will be for long run. To buy a nice and good quality kitchen sink ( such as TEKA OR REGINOX ), try to identify few aspects. first, it must be WHOLE PIECE. Which mean, the whole sink is made or mould by using one piece of stainless steel. secondly, do not buy a shining type. try to find a piece that has a rough vision on top.

Thanks, my wife is also happy about it. Lucky got things right and didnt blow a huge amount on furniture since i got it from cavenzi instead of ikea. I cant seem to find the quotation, since its awhile ago but initially its RM4600 for top and bottom cabinet. But i ask to add in aluminum trimming on all the cabinet doors, frosted glass, hydraulic arm, stainless steal tray and stainless steal handle. OK i didnt ask, but my friend which did this design for me ask me to, so that it enhances the contrast between steel and wood. Everything comes up to RM5.5k The material use are ABS melamine board, i did consider chip board but my contractor told me to use the ABS one cause it has better water resistance. If i remember right, solid wood price is crazy high, cant afford them. Back 4 years ago I did one small cabinet ~ 6 feet for my mom's place and cost me RM 3000++ and god was that small. But it really do look good cause of the classic appearance.

Since there are many house owners in this forum, i am also interested to know how is your renovation ideal and also the budget spent. In addition, i believe by providing pictures, it can also help some home owners in determining the renovation plan, as renovation is a very headache task but interesting.

ok, time for me to show the paint colour of my house. I personally think the colour scheme had been messed up by me and my fiancee decision, but, nothing i can do since had bought the paint.
I did all the painting for this whole semi detached house, which took me almost 1 month, cause i only did it during weekend, but cost saving. it took me almost 7 cans of 5 litres NIPPON SATIN GLO, which is rm 78 a can.
the whole painting work had save me about 2k if compare to i hire some one to do, plus, i can confirm that my own workmanship is not bad at all compare with the professional painter.
