Thx.... but this is not a new house. it's a sub-sale unit. however, it is a complete empty unit, meaning there is nothing inside. I have to do everything from scratch. n my problem here is I dunno where to start. what to do 1st... shd I start painting my house, polish my tiles, or fix the lights 1st??? by the way, i still haven got any quotation from anyone, coz I just got my keys. So, i guess d 1st thing is to get the quotation. anyone know any contractors which is reliable n can perform most of the job?

Tq all for the reply. I'll be only doing a minor renovation. Basically, the things tat I want to do is: 1) built in wardrobe 2) kitchen cabinet 3) wiring 4) painting 5) fix a grill 6) parquet floor polishing For 1 and 2,I've oredi signed up a package. So, basically now i'm still searching a contractor for 3-6. I dunno whether I shd paint the wall 1st or polish the floor 1st.

A rich guy spotted here.... QUOTE(ah_suknat @ Sep 26 2008, 08:23 PM) congrats! damn jealous  I am going to have more headache than you soon since I am building a house from scratch! QUOTE(knwong @ Sep 26 2008, 09:40 PM) do renovation from top to down. i.e. ceiling 1st, wall second, .....lastly floor. Don't do floor 1st, will get dirty when do other renovation If i leave floor polishing at the end, will it damage my built in cabinet?? I dun know how do they do polishing, but i guess it will involve some chemicals, so if it accidentally hits my brand new wardrobe, then I'll b so heartache.

True oso.. but u need to buy a land to build the house, n u need to have ur own designer (unless u urself is a home designer lor), sometime it could b quite pricey as well  Yesterday I just met wiv some of the contractors, they r charging around rm2k workmanship for painting a 1,080 sq ft unit (include door, frame ceiling, grill n of couse wall). do u guys think it is reasonable?
