Planning to some renovation work after staying 10 years..hopefully some sifu can give estimated price for the work

1.Make gate wider by demolishing mailbox - Do I need to buy new gate or there is way to modified it?
2.Relocate from side door to middle door so need to rebuild 2 Windows + security door.
3.Build 2 pillar to support balcony
4.Build roof+extension for 2nd floor room - Previous contractor claim existing kitchen extension can support 2nd floor extension.
5.Re-paint whole house
6.Demolish 2 walls

Hi guys, I have an old double-story house that required full renovation and after reading the posts in LYN, I am a bit confused regarding the Architect, Interior Design, CCC, CF, work permit and etc. Hope can get some advice here.
I met some renovation contractor and has given some simple plan. He said I can go to DBKL/Land Office (forgot which) to buy the standard plan and submit to get the work permit and then after work completed, re-submit the plan to get the Certificate.
It doesn't sound like a proper process so need advice here.

The work.
1. Full knockdown and redo the front gate.
2. Extension of probably 4M at the back
3. Re-design or relocate the ground floor room
4. Re-design or relocate the 1st-floor room
5. Maybe extend 1st-floor master bedroom
6. Re-do all wiring and plumbing

Question:
1. For now, I want to design the house plan first, so I should just get Interior Design to design the house plan first, right?
2. Once I have the design, then I can get the various contractors to provide their quotation?
3. Then get the Architect to draw up a proper plan for submission?

Will post more question later.

Thanks.

Wow, 4M at back! Your house must be bungalow lot~ rclxm9.gif
Here is some knowledge i learnt during renovation on my boss house at The Mansion @ DesaPark City. For extension or any work exterior, normally need get approval by Majlis Perbandaran for your house area. For interior, can no need get approval.

How he do for his house after met few ID and contractor, he find a ID company to do his 3.5 sty + basement drawing, and he also find a main contractor to done those work. What he counted in his thought is ID with contractor to do renovation normally price are higher because commission are included in his final pay. So, he found that separate ID and contractor save a lot. sweat.gif sweat.gif

Luckily contractor given good workmanship and continue with our company few facial outlet. Now they are nearly complete our Mid Valley Boulevard shop. If u need for contractor contact, i can share to u. flex.gif flex.gif
