I was just wondering, now with all the material price increases and some such - how much would renovations for a condominium which is roughly 1500sqft cost? This means kitchen renovated with cabinets, built in wardrobe for 3 rooms, 2 bathrooms redone, plaster ceiling, light fixtures with dimmers placed accordingly, etc.

A few years ago I would guess all the above would cost maybe 40K-50K? Now I dont know. Everyone, home owners and contractors say prices have risen and are there to stay. :/ economic instability and whatnot. Aihs... Can anyone give me a ballpark figure to play around with? Thanks.

sky is the limit! i think if you put aside Rm20k also can go for the minimum.. that means.. you'll get not so nice kitchen!

this is a rough guidance:
kitchen: RM7k
wardrobe x3: RM7.5k (2.5k each)
bathrooms retile x2: RM3k
plaster ceiling: RM2k
lightings + fans + wiring: RM2.5k

total: RM22k

this excludes furnitures, big electrical appliances.. etc.

kitchen will be the most variable amount coz it can be cheaper than i mentioned and could be quadruple the price.. for example: initially i orderd my kitchen (12'x6') for RM7k.. but after I added soft-close hinges, aluminium handles and extra cabinets for ducting the price goes over to RM9k.. this is with ABS material and solid surface. if i chose 3G high gloss the cost will be close to RM15k! and if I add pull-out trays, imported solid surface and other fancy gadgets it may cost as much as RM20k!

i did my plaster ceiling (13.5x 13.5' + 14'x2') for RM1.3k. wiring and lights installation for 25 points about RM1.1k.. lightings and fans for RM2k.

your estimation is just too rough. in renovation, feet and inches that speak the loudest. for example, the kitchen as u stated, which cost 7k, how big will it be ? 20 ft of wall cabinet, and 20 ft for door cabinet ?

as i always stated, do not roughly quote an uncertain price, it need a measurement to quote.

yes. rough guidance.. estimation for an average cost of reno in condo of 1500sqf.

thread starter needs to give exact measurements of the kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms, etc.. otherwise if go ask contractor also won't give the quotation.

kitchen will rely partly on the materials selected and the configuration. a 5'x'5' l-shape with wall cabinets may cost as low as rm3k or as much as 10k rclxm9.gif changing of the cabinet materials will drastically change the price.
