Approx RM90000.

well my dad is a renovation contractor. can intro if u want. =)

hi ts,
i will need to know the size of your house and material you choose inable to estimate the cost for you.

'NO HARM' trying. But who's gonna bear the responsibility of work not up to expectation?

And like you said, WHO can you get to guide them? What's his cost?

Don't compare renovation work with housing development construction work.

The latter, the workers are essentially repeating the same work over every house.

i did reno myself with my own workers and i wud say its much better than another friend of mine who hired a contractor. Pricewise same BUT I did more things compared to him. Whats your area size?

It's very hard to give you a quote when there's no indication of the area and size.

your area size is something like my house. Let me share some of the cost that I have paid:

1. Plaster ceiling - whole house (inclusive of several L boxes) - RM 8k
2. Change roof tiles - why? Have you considered painting over your old ones? Anyway, 1 cement roof tile is about RM 2.50, clay is double that, generally 1 tile covers 1 sqf
3. Painting - should set you back about RM 3k not inclusive of painting materials

Have you considered marbling your toilets instead of tiling? and for your porch, have you considered pebble wash and cement render?

i think the knocking wall and extension will be the one eating up a lot of cost...

replacing the floor tiles as well as painting the house will not cost much... definitely below RM20k...

also, the plaster ceiling for living room...cost about RM2k average? i remember it's not that expensive as well...

the one eating up the cost will be the extension at the back...

me also now have to start calculating cost for reno.... good thread...do share if you have any more updates on the current cost estimation
