Renovation or any construction work, make sure you look for contractors with Class certified by govt so they won't run away with your hard earned money.

I had mine done. Price wise very reasonable and they are ladies contractors cum interior designers. They definitely could give you a great design and ideas where space can be used wisely smile.gif

Her contact is 012 3877107

Hope it helps!

hi getfromme, which types of flooring u choose?

- Is the flooring work by this contractor of really good workmanship ? Example like do they put enough material in flooring and for the sealing parts of the joints between tile pieces ?

- do u mind to share any photos of the flooring work of ur house ?


Also, any shops in KL area are recommended for "homogeneous tiles" ? HOw's the price per sq ft of this types of tiles ?


thx a lot

hi, jus want to find out, i have a contractor quote to me for laying tiles (mat + labour) of RM9 psf (dunno if there's a diff, but tis is for floor & wall). The tiles can be any selection < RM4psf. Anything more, we will absorb. After reading this forum, i think it may be a bit pricey, but i duno. can anyone help me? thanks!

wat i learned from others who're in reno line is that, standard price range for laying tiles (mat + labour), say, for the case of procelain tiles, is about rm 5.xx per sqft for 2X2 size; rm 3.xx to rm 4.xx per sqft for 1x2 size ...

thanks IGaX. I've checked and if std labour cost is about Rm3.xx - Rm4.xx, plus the tiles which is bout RM4, it will turn out to be RM7.xx - RM8xx, which is not THAT far off.

Of course I will further nego once I engage whichever contractor. But honestly, this quote of RM9psf is the cheapest of the 4 contractors I got thru fren/relatives. Isit bcoz im gettin those from KL/PJ. Apparently if i get Klang contractor will be much much cheaper.

Sorry for some lack of info previously ... i recall now that if u're asking ut contractor to perform hacking (for old flooring) before laying new tiles, then total labor cost around rm 7 -- rm 9 is the currrent market price range ... in kl ..
