My BTO Reno Journey

Let me be honest with you guys — the bathroom door situation in my flat was getting ridiculous .

For context , I've been documenting my home renovation journey online . everyone keeps asking me: what to do when your bathroom door keeps jamming.

So here we go .

## My Old Door Was Honestly A Mess

{My flat is a 4-room flat in Woodlands. Nothing fancy .

{The original toilet door? Don't even get me started . | It was one of those old bifold doors with the aluminium track that traps hair and dust.

Every time I opened the door , it would knock against the sink. My husband kept complaining .

{After far too many bruised elbows, I finally started googling like crazy .

That's when I came across **Renovaid Team** .

## Why I Chose Them (And Not Some Random Supplier)

{Okay let me be real — I don't just trust anyone with my home . The market is flooded with options .

But here is what gave me peace of mind about Renovaid Team:

| My Research | Result |

|------------------------------|-----------------------|

| **BCA Registration** | Yes — they are BCA registered CR18 . That's actually important for HDB renovations. |

| **What others say** | 4.8-5 stars on Google . People said they were professional and no hidden fees. |

| **No Middleman** | They manufacture in Woodlands . This usually means better prices and quality control. |

| **Years in Business** | Since 2014 — that's over 10 years . So they probably know what they're doing. |

Plus, they have a no-call policy which is super convenient. Not a phone person la.

## The Door I Got

{I ended up getting their **Slide and Swing Door** . The space saving one.

Why this one specifically?

{First — **no bottom track** . Scrubbing those grooves is my least favourite chore. With this door, there's nothing to scrub.

{Second — **the clearance thing** . Since it glides sideways before swinging, it doesn't need that awkward space to open. No more door-to-toilet collisions.

{Third — **waterproof** . It's made of aluminium and acrylic, not wood . In our Singapore weather? Essential .

{I chose the grey powder coated finish . Honestly looks expensive.

For those curious about the design, **[check out their page here](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/slide-and-swing-doors.html)** . The photos online are accurate .

## Step By Step, No BS

Let me break down what happened so you don't go in blind.

### 1. WhatsApp First

{I sent a WhatsApp to **9898 9268** . Super easy .

{They replied within a few hours . Asked for basic info like flat type and measurements.

Pro tip from me: Measure your door opening first before you message . Makes things faster.

### 2. Free Measurement Visit

{They scheduled a complimentary home visit. The guy came within the promised time window .

{He brought physical finish options to see. I picked grey with a simple panel.

{They took the 50% deposit or $100 minimum during this visit. I paid via PayNow .

⚠️ **Important:** Make sure the person making decisions is home for this. Don't send your helper or maid . I learned this the hard way .

### 3. The Wait

{After I confirmed everything , they said 14 to 21 working days . Came right in the middle of the estimate.

Honestly the wait felt quite long . But they did warn me beforehand . Busied myself with other reno stuff.

### Finally!

The night before, they WhatsApp-ed me a 1-2 hour time window . Morning slot.

{The installer came at 10.30am . Professional la.

Whole thing took about 90 minutes. He:

- Took out my old door (which was honestly rotting at the bottom — gross)

- Installed the new slide and swing door

- Swept the area before leaving

Before leaving, he asked me to test the door . Even gave maintenance tips.

I paid the rest of the payment via PayNow. No surprises, no extra charges .

## What I Think After One Month

{Okay so it's been more than 30 days now. Here is my honest take .

** No regrets at all.**

### The Good Stuff

- ** The space thing** — Seriously my bathroom feels way bigger . No more door hitting the washing machine .

- ** Trackless floor** — I just mop right under the door. No scrubbing mouldy tracks .

- ** Aesthetic** — {The grey powder coated finish doesn't look cheap at all.

- **Water resistant ** — No swelling, no warping, no rot . For Singapore weather? Exactly what we need .

### The Not So Good

I'm really trying to think of negatives . But if I'm being super nitpicky:

- 18 days was quite long. So I can't complain too much.

- **Appointment only showroom** — You cannot just show up at their Woodlands place . Just plan ahead.

That's all I got. No major issues .

## How Much I Paid

They had an offer going on:

** Single door package — $399 all-in**

Here is what that price covered:

✅ Free on-site measurement

✅ Free delivery

✅ Proper fitting by BCA contractor

✅ They took the old one away

No hidden transport fee . The price was the price.

In Singapore renovation terms? A pleasant surprise.

## Yes I Went Back

I wasn't planning to but after the toilet door, I ended up getting Renovaid to do my whole flat.

### The Room Doors

{My old bedroom doors were hollow core and felt cheap .

Got the solid core option. Much quieter now . {The laminate finish is scratch resistant (important because I have a cat) and water resistant.

For those looking, check out their **[bedroom doors page](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/bedroom-doors.html)** . They have different budgets and materials .

### The Second Bathroom

For my common bathroom, I got a **premium aluminium bifold door** from their **[toilet doors page](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/toilet-doors-replacement.html)** .

Works great for that space . Nearly 100% opening.

## What I Wish I Knew Earlier

If you're thinking of getting a door from Renovaid Team, here is my advice:

1. ** Get your measurements ready** — You'll need it anyway.

2. **Make sure the decision maker is home for measurement ** — Don't send your helper or someone who can't choose colours .

3. ** Be patient with the lead time** — Good doors take time to make .

4. ** Pay via PayNow or bank transfer** — They don't take cheques .

5. **Test the door before the installer leaves ** — Open and close it, check the lock, make sure you're happy .

6. **WhatsApp before going to their showroom ** — You will be turned away if you walk in without booking.
