I plan to extend my living room which is 20 feet side to an extra of 10 feet and redo the car porch so the car can park side by side, and the living room will be bigger.
Any idea how much roughly the price? I wanna ask more so i can be careful when ask contractor to quote the price. Might need to move the electric TNB plug a little bit since it locate on the living room wall. Only ground floor of living room. My house is 22 x 70.

QUOTE(cheekily @ Nov 4 2012, 09:51 AM) Hi, just wondering what is the recommended sequence for installing window tint, alarm wiring, grill, paint, and wet works patch up after all the hacking for alarm wiring done? Izit like this: Windows tint suppose to be the last right?1. window tint 2. alarm wiring - hacking and laying the wire 3. wet works patch up 4. paint 5. grill 6. fix alarm pieces onto the grill (for those vibration mode sensor)? Another question, when do we actually put up the grill, should we put the grill 1st thing after getting the keys then only start all the wet works renovation... or do all the wet works renovation 1st then only put the grill up? Sorry, newbie to reno here, tend to ask a lot of stupid questions  Hope to get you guys feedbacks on this. Thanks!I think wetwork/hacking always the first one. then grill then alarm system Wall Paint and windows tint last. |

CAR PORCH EXTENSION A) To demolish existing 1 no of roof column, roof tiles and cart away. 8,600.00 To extend of porch's roof ( 10 ft x 22 ft ) construct 1 no of new column, roof beam, R.C gutter concrete roof tiles and make good with cement plastering. B) To down grade existing grass ground, demolish floor tiles and cart away. 7,500.00 Construct R.C concrete floor ( BRC #A8 ) c/w cement rendering and lay with 30cm x 60cm homogeneous floor tiles and skirting. BRC #A8 is the steel quality? The price is OK? If use BRC A8 single layer is enough? The thinkness is 4-5inci This post has been edited by sovietmah: Nov 8 2012, 11:56 AM |
