My normal electric re-wiring single phase already cost me around 12k. 3 phases will need around 15k +-, depend the points and how the electrical looping used.
Added on June 16, 2011, 1:18 pm QUOTE(jj5 @ Jun 16 2011, 01:16 PM) I call sime darby request for CF but requested to write in. Just provide your house address & they can email to you, free of charged. But if USJ2, not sure they still keep the record. No harm to try For me no need, already got the Approval for renovation.This post has been edited by weikee: Jun 16 2011, 01:18 PM |

QUOTE(Mavik @ Jun 16 2011, 10:48 PM) I wanted to change my house to 3 phase wiring as well but the contractor advised saying that I wouldn't have 4 air cons running hence don't really need 3 phase wiring. Why he mentioned that because they would need to request via TNB to pull in additional wires from outside and it would look ugly as well A normal single phase, is usually supply with a 32Amp fuse, sometime can be slightly larger maybe 40Technically, if you have 4 units of 1.5 HP, it use about 20 Amps in total. Normal house light use about 2 to 5 amps, unless you have lots of light. If you have no water heater, you can run all 4 even more a/c without 3 phases. Water heater use 15amps at Max heat, so if you have 2 water heater, just be aware how you want to use elec appliance. |

QUOTE(phoenix69 @ Jun 17 2011, 12:20 AM) To share my main renovation cost. The 75k you mention above sound right provided you did not add anything, but i think you missed 50% of the major cost.To dismantle and rebuild a wider car porch, including renovating the whole drive way. To re-do the whole house piping. To dismantle and build up external ground floor walls for front and rear extension. To dismantle some internal walls. To change house electrical supply to 3 phase and re-wiring (excluding sockets and switch) Initial cost estimate around RM75 k. rclxub.gif Have you add the following? - Permit application - Tiles, and tiles labor - Plaster ceiling if any - Toilet water proofing - Change of toilet WC - Painting - Kitchen Cabinet - New door + frame - Windows - Alarm Wiring and system Still got more to go. |

The usual contractor will use the water based poison (chlorpyifos) even for roof which are not really good. They don't use oil based cause is 5x more expensive.
You can either ask the reno contractor do it for you, you buy the stuff. I brought some water based for them for the ground footing, and oil for the roof. |

QUOTE(kelvyn @ Jun 25 2011, 10:15 AM) I would suggest that if you are going to carry out the anti-termite treatment for the ground, might as well get them to quote you for the roof truss as well. In my opinion, it is better to let these professionals handle the chemical stuff. The oil based are on Class IV which is not bad. The Water based is Class II, which is crazy poison and ban in many country. The worker will do for me. You should be careful what chemicals that you place on your roof truss and it could affect your health... Last time i ask the so called professional also use Class II for roof. Crazy. |

QUOTE(kelvyn @ Jun 25 2011, 12:29 PM) if you are applying them in the roof, make sure that the chemical does not seep down into the room/ living space below. Health hazard... Yup, Class 4 is still ok, and furthermore after apply, it will be dry before plaster ceiling.This is something you do want to have later |

You think the roof can reach 100c? oil won't evaporate even at 100c. Smell sure got, any treatment will have smell for few weeks, just like paint.
This is the same method many use to treat wood in some country. |

Like i say earlier, many so call Pro use poison Class 2.
They don't op to use oil based that is Class 4 cause is 10x more expensive. So better go buy yourself ask the indo / contractor to help spray the roof wood. |

QUOTE(phoenix69 @ Jun 30 2011, 06:56 PM) According to contractor and the architect, as long as you do not do any modification that change the outside shape, anything inside is your own business. When they come, they can say noise level unacceptable ask you here and there. You know we no longer "Bersih" cause is ban. Now is Kotor. |
