I have attempted to attach some useful photos and active material, for the friends, who are making their houses and, like me, do not have enough expertise to do the stuff expertly and need assistance from someone, other than their contractors.
You would find kitchen, baths and other photos, color schemes, granite/tile info, good websites for further browsing and siding tiles/stones etc, etc.
File is still growing but has enough stuff, for pondering upon.
I hope the file gets loaded successfully!

Brothers,
Regarding the material availability, everything is available in Pakistan.
The “Kitchen Care “guys in Islamabad, will make your dreams come true as they can manage everything but will cost you fortune (at least 3.5 lacs per a normal size kitchen (10*12Ft) with teak wood and all but to me giving this much money to them is ridicules.
With a little effort here and there, you can save a lot by doing it yourself. The most difficult part is the “color scheme” of baths and kitchen tile, contrasting to each other (walls and floor) and here you have to work very hard. I will post some more in two weeks time, regarding color schemes.
Good Porcelain tiles may not be available in Rawalpindi/Islamabad but they are available in Karachi. Very good quality thick and strong and beautiful, made in China and in Italy.
Regarding cost thing, the “analysis part” is very hard and almost impossible, as other are taking care of my house, but I can sure post the actual expenses ONCE I am fully done.
I can post all the expenses, itemized against things bought, but the way the prices are fluctuating, I do not know whether or not it would prove as helpful!
Since this is personal, I can send through mail addresses only. I already have a good cliental regarding this, as my Inbox is choking up with messages, keeping coming from the silent and shy readers of this place and that is the exact and ONLY reason, I am so dutiful in posting of all this stuff here. |
