  1. Wow.. good tips, will bookmark those rituals and see if i need to do this when i move in. currently house still under reno... thanks
  2. I'm in the midst of doing renovation now. Here are my checklist that I come up. this is for new housing project: - Get key from developer - Inspect house ASAP, to submit defect list for rectification. Trust me, they will take 2-8weeks to finish it. Call up after every 2 weeks to the supervisor to check on progress. Multiple defect list WILL be submitted, trust me - Check out on any and every showhouses opened, to get idea for reno/design/furnishing. Get ID magazines too if you want. - Start to plan a budget, breakdown to details whenever you have more info. - Get floorplan/layout to ease planning - Get contacts for contractor/grill/alarm/kitchen and quotation - Start visiting home deco fairs to get free 1-stop quotation, may not be cheaper but at least can get a good estimate of costs - Look around neighbourhood or other houses under reno to get additional contacts. - Plan if have ID or 1single contractor to manage, or multiple ppl to do each portion, i.e. wiring, mosaic, kitchen, carpentry. Usually this way would be cheaper as the main contractor/ID will need to find his subcon and also earn additional fees, but really depends on person to person. - Apply TNB and water connections - Plan out reno work schedule and follow up on every step - Wiring -> Aircond conceal piping -> mosaic/tilings -> alarm wiring -> plaster ceiling (if applicable) -> window tinting (need to fix b4 grill) -> Grill/Awning -> the rest :) - Scout for electrical stuff, i.e. essentials like lights, fans, aircond, exhaust fan, light/motion sensors - Scout for others like curtains, fridge, washing machine, etc - Reno done, painting and cleaning or start fixing the above essential lightings - Furnitures... curtains... etc etc - Pack up and move in I'm at stage of fixing wiring only, the headache is only halfway thru, hehe..
  3. anyone doing window tinting would have this. if you are from northern region, i have a contact, going to give him do for the whole house
