for me.... all wetworks, electrical, plumbing, plaster must do first
then get carpentry, furnitures, appliances by importance
things like wallpaper, nice curtains.... can be later..... make ur home an ongoing project..... then at least you will always have something new in the house....

Actually there is no harm in getting them to give you a quote. I believe there is are no obligation on your part. Just make it clear from te outset.
At least from your discussion and their quote, you will have a better idea and feel of the reno work that is suitable for your need and financial situation.

ya but my wet works, electrical, plumbing, plaster, tile already exceed budget hahah that is my problem ~ now door also expensive

need to change toilet door, bi-fold alu door = RM330.00 x 5 untis
Autogate = 6k
Autogate machine = 1.5k
Safety door front = 3.8k
Safety door back = 3.5k

i going crazy with this number


hmm true will do, just that normal thinking when it involve ID it's usually 10% higher as per discusion with other lowyat members ^^

back security door need 3.5k? thats abit exp isnt it?

anyone can recommend good place to get alu bi-fold doors with glass?

ya it's Janus brand, saw 2 of their shop 1 at mahkota cheras and 1 at puchong both same price

alu bi-fold not glass i got quot Rm330 each include installation, not sure if it's a good price or not

Is autogate really needed now? if not just lose it for now. Rather than buying the safety door might as well opt with normal door but install dead bolts plus security like ADT . If not you're bleeding everywhere man.

For the auto gate, can just lay the cables first. Later when have more budget after year end bonus/ strike lottery, can install. Not messy.
Better to KIV those items that can be added on later.
Otherwise, before you can really enjoy your house, you already bleeding like nobody business

auto gate can install later... for me it wasn't compulsory items for a house and just a "display items" to outsider... perhaps invest it on security alarm system instead as it more "useful" compare to auto gate...

If budget not enough at the moment, could always just install the alarm wires first. Then install the alarm later. Installing the alarm later is also not messy. But, if your area is a new area, then may be better to install first. All depends on your budget.

If really have no money to do basic stuff like plumbing, electrical etc etc, maybe you can consider taking loan, at least amount is not that much. But other "luxury" items, nice furniture, auto-gate etc etc, just do when you got budget la bro. New house, but covered in debt, very not syok.
For myself, I just did everything necessary when move in, forgo the nice TV cabinets, coffee table etc etc and upgrade them when my financial is more stable And the best part is, is like every month got new stuffs to look at
But security IMO should always come first. New house, if get break in (touch wood), hancur habis dream house (own exp)

Good luck!

Alarm system also cost 6k, 3k plus for 1 x dome + 2 IR, 3k plus for alarm system... by the way is this cctv require ? thought just give the normal alarm saja
