House Renovation - designers or ala-carte?

[sweetsnowy]

I think it is fine getting a contractor who are recommended by your friends.

Although contractors do not have much design ideas compare to ID, but the good thing about it is contractors normally accept your design instead of persuading you to drop this and that idea.

Sometimes, ID will persuade you to accept their recommendations saying according to their experience it is better that way, but end up the ID idea may not be what you like and is costly…

just my 2 cents

Interior Designs are very important for home and shop decoration. It require some nice furniture, curtains and decoration pieces. But it be perform in less cost by some setting and wall papers.

My good aunt does quality renovation and interior design at reasonable cost. She has many good reviews from her customers however she does not have any fan page or any site to show at the moment (I always advised her to set up an account somewhere with good quality showcase to share with others)

Used them years ago for mum's apartment. They are contractors who contract the job from Dulux. Personally thought it's good if you don't have anyone to go to.

This may sound crazy... but we actually do touch up and paint the exterior of our house (reachable area - eg car porch, balcony) by ourselves. The kids and maid are all in full force. We've done it twice in the last 5 years. The project for this year would be to paint the girls' room and redo up the decor as my disney wall border decal is peeling off and looking unsightly now.... a project after PSLE and SA2.

Thanks geraline and mmm.

geraline, i do not stay near yishun

mmm, does wallpaper peel off easily? i have a false wall in my bedroom which the paint will crack over time. So i am thinking of repaint the whole house and then cover those areas which are prone-to-paintcrack areas with wallpaper. will it help?

[geraline.042523sung]

I PmED you. i think seeking advice from the expert..is better than asking us who knows nothing about crack except butt crack :spank: :spank: :spank:
