Bro tomjason, can u pm me the formula? thanks in advance.

Hi tomjason,
I'm planning to renovate my house and would like to learn more.
plz pm the formula

hi bro,

from my experience and knowledge..not much different in term of installation price...i would rather use tile cause robustness and long life compare to concrete imprint...for me one issue is after long time...since concrete imprint not smooth surface will later cause mold...you need to regularly to water jet the floor...that my opinion...

bro, i hv PM you my preferred and cheapest and yet reliable indoor water filter/dispenser that i use...


to others, i hv stop giving formula but still give advised whoever need when i got free time to answer...

anyone who had 1st hand experience with good contractor? can pls recommend? thx in advance

If say like that, let say my room 120sf require to install 2*2 tiles.
One 2*2 tiles around $16, per sf is $4, so workmanship is $8/sf, means 1sf tiles + workmanship = $12
120sf = 12 * 120 = $1440, so pricing around 1.5k to install 2 * 2 tiles in a 120sf room, right?

ya, around that, the point of estimate is to have a guideline before negotiate with contractor, if u can get between RM1300 to RM1800 quotation for common market price and can consider to engage with him already, and ofcause there will be a different between hiring chinese Sifu and Indo for the workmanship

1 10 k ++
2 5k ++
3. 10k++
4. car pouch slab ada tak
5 8k maybe for lamilate, melamime maybe 5k. look for king dong dong goldencarpentry.com.my/
6 no idea
7 no idea also
8 after u pain interior urself pain outside also lah,, lagi save
9 grills RM 11 Podwer coated MS steel, autogate = Dcmoto from penang
