Hey guys,

I would like to know how much exactly the price for plumbing?
I would like to change all the water pipes for my house.
4 bathrooms & Kitchen? 2000square feet.

But the contractor quote me 6.8k
And he say i need to fully renovate the house cause need hack/break the walls and floor tiles ( basically everything)
Which mean i need to change floor tiles, repaint the whole house again.
Then i might as well change the interior design of the house since it was 19years old with outdated design.

Any suggestion? =P
Any plumber or interior designer here too?

thank you

For sharing,

Went to Builders Hardware (Kepong) today, got myself a Johnson suisse WC set and other bathroom stuffs...

I would say that they really offer a very good price + good service...

How i wish i know their shop earlier.
Coz i bought other stuffs at other shop earlier at much more higher price (Raya Promo konon lar)

Thumbs up to Zean and family!!! :-)

hi,

im just get my house key last week. plan to do kitchen(ground and 2nd floor) & living room extension. size for kitchen area is 11' x 24', living room 6' x 24'. can i know how much it cost?

Your description is so brief, how to advice? It can range from 10k to unlimited. Better have more detail. e.g.
- How many wall to hack
- Tiles area
- Type of material to use for kitchen cabinet
- New tiles area
- New lighting points
- Plaster ceiling
- etc..

Minimum is approx 80k

Hi All, I have double storey terrace house 22' x 70'.

1. I plan to extend the dining room area by moving the study room wall inward (making study room smaller). Please give estimated cost for the renovation.

2. Also on the upper floor, i plan to extend the master bedroom toilet by taking a bit of the bedroom area. Please give estimated cost for the renovation.

3. I want to know the price of piping as well for the toilet since the configuration of the shower point, sink will be different and addition of bathtub (will not be able to buy it yet but will be in the near future. Please give estimated cost for the renovation.

One point to note when you've engaged a contractor to do your plumbing work is to ensure that they use sirim stamped upvc pipe.

There are cheaper pipes out there but the thickness and strength is not the same. The cheaper ones break easily whereas the more expensive one is more durable.

Saw my parents neighbour get cheap ass pipes which cracked after it was buried in the ground.

contractor banyak menipu..

It come with difference thickness, all sirim approved some use for ac water flow

for water should use ABS pipe nowadays (blue color 1)... waste water only use UPVC (white colour)....

Thanks bro

Yup correct.

i have a reliable contractor...interested to contact him? responsible and good quality work. pm me..

Hi All,

After ordering a new kitchen unit to place my old one at my condo in Penang I decided to retile the kitchen wall, replacing the water pipe for the entire unit covering the dry area, kitchen and 2 bathrooms and renovate the master bedroom. Quotation received is as follows:

1) Piping cost .. RM2.9K
2) Tiling of kitchen approx 100 sq ft (hacking & laying cost) .. RM2.2K
3) Tiling of bathroom wall 6’x7’x6’ (hacking & laying cost) .. RM3.3K
4) Tiling of bathroom floor 6’x7’ (hacking & laying cost) .. RM1.5K
5) Labour cost for removal of bathtub at master bedroom .. RM450.00
6) Labour cost for removal of old WC and installation of new WC .. RM250.00. I

Appreciate comments and provide your estimate to the following:

1) Is the cost of piping reasonable – item 1?

2) Tiling cost items 2 – 4 appear excessive based on what I followed from this forum, If correct what should be the reasonable charge?

3) Item 5 – do I have to pay for the removal. If yes, what is the reasonable amount?

4) Item 6 – the charge of RM250 appears excessive. If correct, please advise what should be the reasonable amount?

Hope to have these input so that I can negotiate with the contractor or seek an alternative quote from another contractor.

Thank you

Higher because it inclusive of hacking.

may i know wat is the reasonable cost for tiling per sqft?
