Thanks man, will try to DIY.

Called a few plumbers, all charging $160-$180. 😵

$160-$180 is all in or just labour cost? 😅 Plumber charges not cheap, also dont know how they charge de. Even changing a basic tap can pay around $200, if include the parts, the labour and transport fees.

I find inside the cabinet is easier with more room to access the underneath of tap...only trouble is removing all the barang barang out of the way...😅

the original standalone one from hdb I have at home has limited space...luckily my wrist is petite...😁

Good job. Always good to learn some simple diy skills (though I dislike plumbing).

Thanks.

I rather do DIY plumbing than electrical work. Made a mistake with electricity and one can get a nasty shock or even death.

With plumbing and made a mistake, the most just water leak or get ownself wet.

I choose the lesser evil. 🤣

Barang barang.

Basic electrical work like reconnect back wires of led lights, and lamps, or extention not so bad actually. Just make sure no one turn on the switch while you are at it, or if really want to be safer, turn off the ELCB before you start. Other than that not much electrical work at home actually.
