Getting Started Junior Member 117 posts Joined: Jan 2012	my bro is a kit cab vendor, so the price should be reasonable. my toilet is relatively small, 60-70SF, so water proofing is relatively cheap. (the previous owner potong the original toilet into 2, thats why end up with 2 miniature toilet...) need to do additional water proofing under the water tank also, otherwise water will seep through the ceiling on top of toilet..

All in all, i pay RM 18,500 for: 1) 5Ft front extension - living hall 2) 12Ft Covered car porch cum Balcony I reckon that for front extension or back extension market rate hardly below RM 20K, i am ok with the price i get. There is other factor that i taking into consideration apart from cost. The price quoted inclusive of construction of new wall & plastering it. Otherwise i will hack the contractor head for hidden cost. Edit: Front Ext + Balcony was actually RM 18,500 instead of RM 22,800. Same goes to the below post...

Getting Started Junior Member 117 posts Joined: Jan 2012	In addition, the original plan was to extend 7ft but end up with 5Ft due to regulation from local authority. (outer gate to main wall must be 20Ft & above...) So the RM 22,800 was meant for 7Ft ext, but now the actual ext going to be 5Ft only. Perhaps will get the contractor to do me a bit of favour in providing some free service here & there.

Since the total area for these 3 toilets are 190SF, and each 1 x 2 tiles around RM 5/pcs. I roughly estimate the tiles cost will be RM 1,000, but VERY LIKELY it could shot up to RM 2,000.

(this i agree, only cosmetic) 2) I bought a 12 y.o subsale unit and the toilet really run down. Since the WC & Basin got to replace, and more important the toilet is leaking, the tile need to be replaced. No other choice... 3) Plaster ceiling (agree partially; in my case ground floor has plaster ceiling, might as well install it on upper level) 4) Main gate. The ori main gate already koyak, need to use steel chain to lock it in addition, the gate going to be 16F wide, normal manual swing gate am afraid that after a while either panel will sunk due to the weight and difficult to close the gate.

Getting Started Junior Member 117 posts Joined: Jan 2012	So long no update, Lazyman style Not many photo, Lazyman style. Week 1 - Mainly hacking work, internal & external 27 August - Day 1 Week 2 - Hacking work complete, 2 toilet tile hacking & Kitchen tile hacking complete The column at ground floor is up, steel work for balcony is ready. Just waiting for sunny day to lay concrete. Problem is it's raining 5 days a week. Delay. Week 2 is happening. The ground floor WC got blockage, RM 800 burnt. Further RM 450 damage to construct a water gutter for neighbour. RM850 for concealing the PVC piping. Best part is, the neighbour's brick wall has protruded by 4" into my house. So there will be visible protrusion @ living hall unless hack down the entire brick wall fencing, which is not really an option. Week 3 - Concrete slab for balcony (6 inches) finally completed. Judging on the current progress, major wet work should be completed in September. Another concrete slab on top should be competed by end September depending on weather.

By right need to check whether the brick wall is Senget, but after considering the effort required to climb up stair, lets do it another day Only 10 working days left for September, judging from the progress so far most likely the RC roof for upper floor will not be ready.

RM 2,300 is only for drawing floor plan for the renovation + submission to local authority for approval. Anyway the waste bin deposit can collect back after the renovation completed. not interested in getting anything from Singapore.

Initially only prepare to spend 3k on it, but the bill easily close to 8k-9k now. mainly due to - Construct a new water gutter that previously sharing with the neighbour = 450 - Repair a stuck WC = 850 - Repair leaking pipe at dining area = 450 - Replacing all cold water piping for 2 WC & 2 Basin + 6 new stopcock = approx 1200 (old piping leak is common these day) - Conceal water pipe from meter to water tank = 850 (for cosmetic reason...) - Conceal & relocate piping work at wet kitchen= 600 (for cosmetic...) - Relocate water meter to give way for 16Ft folding gate = 600 2. Wiring work. Initially only budget 2-3k for new power point + light point. might end up spending additional few k on - relocating TNB meter + conceal wiring due to front extension = 1500 (not aware it is so costly） - relocating MCB box = 700 (contemplating to spend on this. otherwise the box will sit on top of TV Cabinet...) 3. Removing existing tile on kitchen table top and install new tile. (big mistake. it cost a bomb. might as well hack & construct new table top @ RM 160 per feet long. - it should cost around 4-5k in total inclusive of new tile. will only know when the final bill comes. （i got 20ft+ of table top in total） There are also other items that i conveniently omit since the price tag was enormous A word of advise, give it a pinch of salt when someone quote you something 20-30% cheaper on renovation works. i think within klang valley there is a market price for anything from A-Z. might end up penny wise dollar fool if engage a CONtractor due to very cheap pricing. if the guy is relative or close friend then different story.

For plumbing, are you going with poly pipe or PVC? Just make sure no GI for the whole system, and ask for stainless steel for all the elbows. More solid and rust free... On DB box, you may ask for metal box instead of plastic one. Better look and solid, but cost slightly more... Just build a new table top, you can have your desired design and size with that much of money.

Getting Started Junior Member 117 posts Joined: Jan 2012	Week 6 - Day xx Week 7 - Day 54th Most electrical & piping work at final stage. Tiling work start this week, target completion by end Oct. Hope they can finish the wet work soon so that i can start painting external. Take almost 2.5 hr to apply Nippon 5170 for an area of 140SF, consuming approx 2.5L. Anyway wrong application since it is meant for non-covered area. Acrylic based is difficult & messy to handle. After it dries, it only takes 1hr to paint the same area (140sf) using ICI Maxilite Plus, consuming only 500ml-600ml. At a price of RM 65/18Litre, it makes perfect sense why most contractor quoted their paint job using Maxilite. Cheap & user friendly. Contemplating to paint it with Nippon Weatherbond Solar Reflect, decide to reserve the 5L for upper floor. The price tag of RM 138/5 litre is a bit stiff on budget.
