Good luck on your renovation too! Since we're both doing reno at the moment, there are definitely some ideas/info/experience we can share, mate. I'd deffo keep an eye on your updates.

The sketch is using Sketchup, and it is in 3D (can turn around anyway you want to see how it looks like from other angles. If you haven't tried it, should download (it's free) and try. I'm not professional but the software very professional!

Unfortunately I did not take any before pictures indoors, I do have the external ones which I will put up once I get my pictures folder in order (can't seem to find it at the moment!).

At the moment though, partial (partial so that house still secure) hacking done, ground floor footing, ground floor beam, some pillars, and fencing (complete tear down and rebuild!) is being worked on. I will be putting up pictures when I can get it in some order.

Cheers!

Hi there,

Are you managing your renovation by yourself..

If yes, I suggest your to get ready your plumber and electrical sub-contractor soonest possible..

Thanks for the advise, mate. I've just given my civil contractor the plumbing work. As for electrical, I'm still looking... hopefully settle by end of this month.

Good to hear that...

For common piping works, I suggest to go for ABS (reliable and cost effective)... If you have more budget, then go for original SS304 or SS316 pipe...
