I am going to renovate my newly bought home. Due to budget constraint I am not going to appoint an ID. For those who has got experience on renovating your house, I would like to seek for your advise on the renovation workflow.

1) Electricity work (lay cable)
2) Plaster ceiling
3) Extension of kitchen, hacking and renovating the front (Sliding door become concrete)
4) Install air-cond
5) install Lighting
6) Customized furniture (Living hall, Wardrobe, Kitchen Cabinet)
7) Painting

Which one shall I start first and which one shall be done later? I need your help to tell me the sequence. Thanks.

So meaning that the workflow should be as below:

1) Wet work (hacking, extension)
2) Electric works (lay cables, LAN)
3) Plaster Ceiling (left with holes)
4) Painting (I thought customized furniture first?)
5) Customized furniture ie Kitchen cabinet, Living hall, wardrobe, bed frame)
6) painting
7) Install air-cond, move in furniture ie sofa, tv, refrigerator

Did I miss out anything? cos I'm gonna engage individual specialist instead of getting a contractor that covers everything. Is it too risky? or at the end I could end up paying more?

hey guys, thanks for the info. Just to confirm again, does painting always come before customized furniture (kitchen cabinet, feature wall etc)?

another question

can we appoint a maincon, and then let him know that we have contractors that we sourced ourselves for certain things, and he manages them, instead of him finding all the contractors himself?
looking for an experienced and trustworthy (and of course, budget friendly) maincon to help me manage my renovatoin project
*
You can ask the main con to give u a quotation and deduct those that u wished to source for yourself.
