Doing my reno halfway currently. I like to use my regular contractors whom have become friends. However, I feel that their prices are getting too high, dispite their good quality and personal service. Maybe I should get some more quotes to compare? I hate comparing price with another contractor, as it may jeopardized our friendship over few Ks leh ! How er ?
BTW like to share my Reno diary with photos with you guys here. Very reluctance to share, as it will give let out my identity but I trust that people here are mostly kind hearted people. Need more time to think about it .
Bro this is open forum. While one may build up an online "friendship" unless you have met "them" personally, you MAY open yourself up to "problems" Just be careful as one never know who views these post......
getting more n more confused abt grilles materials :
was quoted steel materials with thicker powder coating , but still will rust in long run ?
they dun do aluminum materials like in sg , although can cut but rust free.
wrough iron cols are not into my likings .
If you install aluminium, then there is no point installing since it is such a soft metal. The aluminium grill is more to prevent kids from falling out of windows and balconies.
soft ? i try to bend my house one , not easily leh ....
btw , wat grilles materials u used ?
Renovation is a real hassle, as I am finding out now. Anyway, to juggle between aesthetic, security & cost constraints, I recommend using 实心 powder coated wrought iron grilles. For double storey terrace, installation cost is ard RM 7K.
can pm me yr grilles contractor ? mine end lot was quoted 7.2k with steel powder coating materials .
I paid $6.1k RM for my whole cluster house with flower decorations at main door grill somemore. Your contractor is definitely carroting you. I will PM you but please be patience with him as he is very popular.
