QUOTE(jerm @ Oct 7 2011, 12:10 PM) Hi all, according to each separate area, is each one's prices okay? Very expensive!!!What cen be cheaper, and usually by how much? (e.g. plaster ceiling 2.50 instead of 3.20) This is the first quote i have gotten, will also try to get others [attachmentid=2473017] Plaster ceiling should not more than 3500 included open the downlight hole. If you find the kitchen supplier from lowyat here, i think the price can cheaper, maybe 20%! They charge u too details, example hack the floor RM2.50/sf should included skirting, why need to charge remove skirting RM2/ft! Remove parquet also RM2.50/sf, u can remove ur own 1 hour. Transfer of tiles to site is free delivery by tiles shop, unless he want to charge u from lobby to your condo unit. cos the free delivery at condo lobby only.

your quotation is very expensive..lolz..
is it from ID/maincon firm?? for plaster ceiling work, bcoz they provided you 9mm board, so must more expensive then those rm2.3/sqft (bcoz normally that is 6mm thk only) your unit is condo, if yes then the plaster ceiling is still acceptable. normally landed house charge around rm3.0/sqft L box have lighting or only plain? if it's lighting L box, then consider reasonable. For the carpentry, the shoe cabinet cost rm370pfr is consider higher. but the wardrobe is sound ok, is it 8ft height?? This post has been edited by jforjean: Oct 8 2011, 01:55 PM |

QUOTE(jerm @ Oct 7 2011, 06:37 PM) thanks wrb7878 for your insight. i too think that this is a little expensive. i am still on the lookout for a reasonable yet boleh harap contractor that is able to give me a better price You can give your wet work(hacking, tiles, plaster ceiling and wiring) to 1 main con, the rest you can find ur own supplier. |

Tip 1: On the plaster ceiling, Please tell your contractor to lower down 4'inch instead of 7'inch. It will make your ceiling look higher. Contractor prefer 7'inch because it makes their job easier and faster. And when you lower down you ceiling 4'inch only. Makesure your downlight suite the specification. Tip 2: Downlight Please use off-white energy saving by: GE ( Philips also got but not nice ). Their color look better. Do not: mix warm white and cool white. It make your house look 2 tone. Downlight casing Please chose a better quality chsing with geniune powder coat. It make different. Use Square if can. hm..... to many to share. Maybe if you want to know more please ask me ya. maybe what I said you already know. Just to share~ |
