want to ask some info on cost of renovation of a single storey banglow due to Im in a tight budget.
Can any contractors or anyone who have experience give in their 2 cents?

1) extention of the left side of the house
2) build an additional 1st floor
3) plaster ceiling for the whole house
4) roof tiles maybe able to use the old one + new additionals

Below is the plan for the original house (ground floor without renovation)







ground floor propose renovation (the dotted lines indicate the walls that have to pecah)


1st floor propose renovation

owh yeah..forgot to add in one of the contractor's quotation? do you guys think it is resonable?

 limau.doc ( 50k ) Number of downloads: 130

400k renovation 20% = 80k down payment, beware of the contractor take the money and run away the price quote is not include finishing/ Elec work /door & frame, imo you should find another contractor to quote with more detail

btw, build additional 1st floor, the existing structure can support the additional load?? do u have the R.C structure drawing

r.c means reinforced concrete rite? is that kinda like the blueprint of the house?

architect, structure, m&e drawing all can be "blueprint".....
R.C drawing will show what is your foundation, size of beam, steel bar and so on....

the architect who came to my house says that it is strong enough..plus among my neighbours, it is already proven it is strong enough to support nother floor

I done my house recently and I guess the price is very reasonable. More important he is very detail & experience on bungalow house. If you would like him to give you a quote to compare, let me know.

Beside I have some extra item which I bought for my renovation;
Hansgrohe handshower & mixer,
Hansgrohe conceal mixer,

Switches
Schneider C-Metro with LED light

Lighting
Tom Dixion - The beat.

Digital door lock
Samsung digital door lock

Extra cable for Astro HD, the brand is Belden.
Telephone cable.... I can give you FOC.
........................the list go on...........

Thanks.
