No, not yet, but this is what i'll be getting, the contractor do not want to want to let me know the price of this design alone, only quote RM5100 for the ground floor plastering.

You already now the estimate cost of plaster ceiling, and the design on board is 2K??? Kidding

you can view some of plaster ceiling work at

Actually contractor also recommended i use LED strip on the L Box area, says its cheaper and brighter wor. One roll arounf $15-$25 i think, ada benar ka??

Where you get one roll of LED strip light for only RM15-25?

L box area around 10 excl T5 or LED
Dining area x 4 plus T5
Study room x 4
Main Entrance x 2

But for upstairs he quoted $45 per light incl wiring, i have 22 upstairs, fan in total is 8

Can use LED, invest bigger and more expensive driver. Else you risk burning the driver or like some forumer here the cheapo driver change many times.

Unless they use high Watt LED, if not the brightness can't match with T5. T5 is so much brighter compare to most LED. Well unless you use 3W or 5W maybe is difference comparison.

So the RM 5100 actually have other items included like light point wiring / Fan point wiring?
Perhaps you want to list than what it is RM 5100 inclusive, than will ease for us to said Reasonable or Not.

The price of RM5100 incl

Plaster ceiling L box for hall, S design (as shown), the no of lighting points mentioned above, 1 point for fan at dining area. That's all

Actually what is S design?

44 light point or 22?
Assuming 22 than x RM 50 already RM1000, guess it will almost reasonable lol...

S Design

Oh.. Guess you have maid help you cleaning. Not sure a normal vacuum cleaner can go in.

Lighting point (downlights not incl) & Wiring for 22 x $45 = $990
L box (Living) & Study Approx = $1754
Which means the Dining S Design = RM2356???

I really need to talk to contractor again....

TS, yr 5100 is only for 1st floor plaster ceiling + wiring point at 1st floor?

RM5100 is for the 3 areas for ground floor, 1st floor aka upstairs no need plastering cos ady provided by developer, just need to add wiring for extra lights.

Btw, the market price of RM2.30 for normal plaster incl painting??

U guys have been helpful, many thanks!!!

I guess your main issue is without itemize listed down with price, else you will be very clear.

My plaster ceiling quotation is like below:-
Ceiling 2230sf x 2.30= 5129
main hole 18" x 4 = RM 220
Fan Hook : 8 x RM15 = 120
L-Box 94sf x RM10.5 = 987
Total RM 6456

Downlight hole FOC

Hence it give me a clean indication what they charging me for.
