Much appreciated and many thanks.

I did reno when I took over the unit, contractor noticed termites when dismantle the old wardrobe. They got rid of it and did some preventive measures by spraying some poison as well as treated wood.

Thanks for your kind compliment.

Sent you PM.

Choose Balinese resort style, cozy environment as both me and wife work from home. Do share your new house with us ya. Thanks

Thanks! We wanted a lasting design that can look good for years, resort style it is. Have a new unit coming next year, cracking my head what to do with it, not sure if I should bring the same design over.

Window was done by main contractor so I have no idea where he get it from. Dimension 156" x 78" (material: aluminum - epoxy with wood grain) RM 7800.00, this price was 6 yrs ago.

A search in Google under "Malaysia's folding window manufacturer" will give you some results.

Much appreciated. Seldom open that window as to prevent insects from coming in...lol.

Hmmm....my place is very near Dewan Bahasa, 5 mins walk from Maharajalela monorail station. It's either you hunt for your ideal home or find a good location then put in effort and money to reno & furnish it.

Prices of properties had gone up tremendously over the last few years. You just have to look harder or perhaps find location that is not too far away.

My reno was done 5 years ago thus pricing won't be accurate. Please check latest pricing with them. Pricing very much depending on materials and what sort of lock set you chose. I've installed a total of 6 frames and doors, price come out to 8.8K, lock set for main door cost 1.5K.

* 6 x Nyatoh door - 240.00 per door

The rest of the cost are frames, hinges, 5 x lock sets @ RM100.00 each for bedrooms and toilet doors, varnishing, skirting for frames and installation.

No worries. I suggest you look at aluminum door frame, my neighbor just it installed, strong in terms of security and better in long run because not prone to termites attack.

Ya, that's the problem. A door by itself is usually affordable until you factor in other things that has to go with it. I was taken by surprise when I made my purchase, mine have to be replaced due to the extent of termite damage therefore no other choice but to part with my money.

Happy hunting.

Bro, several months had past, have you installed your Aluminium frame yet? If yes please let me know the contact, my new unit will be ready end of this year, another big Reno project will be taking place. Have to start doing homework again. This time round I may opt for Industrial concept, cement screed flooring, expose conduit pipes for wiring, pairing with rustic furnitures.

With 1457 sq ft of space, I must be thorough with this planning.

Thanks Bro. This place have given me lots of idea so just my part to share my progress.

It's a condo, build up around 1067 sq ft. 2 kitchen's wall had been hacked by previous owner. Without those walls, it definitely makes the place looks much bigger.

Thanks Bro. My neighbor upstairs with the same build-up happened to drop by, they were pleasantly surprised the spaciousness compared to their unit (No hacking of wall), the husband ask me if we had the same layout..

Bro, sadly the contractor no longer contactable. I designed it on my own through research and ID magazine. The reno was already 6-7 years old. In terms of design, better to choose long lasting concept such as resort or Balinese style. Our unit still looking good after all these years.
