My BTO Reno Journey

I need to share something — the bathroom door situation in my flat was getting ridiculous .

For context , my page is mostly about home stuff. the question I get most is : what to do when your bathroom door keeps jamming.

Time to spill the tea.

## My Old Door Was Honestly A Mess

{My flat is a BTO in Tampines. Normal HDB la.

{The original toilet door? Wah, really cannot make it . | It was one of those old bifold doors with the aluminium track that traps hair and dust.

I kid you not, it would bang into the washing machine . My husband kept complaining .

{After months of this nonsense , I finally asked around in reno groups.

That's how I found them.

## What Made Me Decide

{Okay let me be real — I did my research. The market is flooded with options .

But here is what stood out to me about Renovaid Team:

| What I Checked | Result |

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

| **Are they legit** | Proper certified, not some fly-by-night. 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** | Not just a reseller. 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. |

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

## My New Slide and Swing Door

{I ended up getting their **Slide & Swing Toilet Door** . Yes the one that slides first then swings .

Why this one specifically?

{First — **trackless design** . Scrubbing those grooves is my least favourite chore. With this door, there's nothing to scrub.

{Second — **the clearance thing** . Because it slides first, it doesn't need that big clearance zone . No more door-to-toilet collisions.

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

{I chose the grey powder coated finish . Way nicer than I expected .

For those curious about the design, **[check out their page here](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/slide-and-swing-doors.html)** . What you see is what you get.

## Step By Step, No BS

Let me break down what happened so you're not confused like I was .

### Message 9898 9268

{I sent a WhatsApp to **9898 9268** . Took two minutes .

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

Pro tip from me: Have your measurements ready. Makes things faster.

### 2. Free Measurement Visit

{They scheduled a free on-site measurement . The guy came within the promised time window .

{He brought colour samples and catalogues . I picked grey with a simple panel.

{They took the 50% deposit or $100 minimum during this visit. Super convenient — no cheque nonsense.

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

### Manufacturing Time

{After I approved the design and paid, they said about 3-4 weeks. Came right in the middle of the estimate.

Honestly the wait tested my patience a bit. Not like they kept me in the dark. Busied myself with other reno stuff.

### Finally!

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

{The installer came at around that time. Friendly guy, wore a uniform, had all his tools .

Whole thing took about 1.5 hours . He:

- Removed and disposed of the old door

- Fixed the new one in

- Cleaned up the mess

Before leaving, he asked me to try opening and closing it. Showed me how the mechanism works and how to clean it .

I paid the rest of the payment via PayNow. Exactly what they quoted.

## Honest Review

{Okay so it's been more than 30 days now. No filter, no sponsorship — I paid for this myself.

** No regrets at all.**

### What I Love

- **Space saving ** — I can actually open the door fully now. No more door hitting the washing machine .

- **No bottom track ** — I just mop right under the door. No scrubbing mouldy tracks .

- **Looks good ** — {The grey powder coated finish matches my bathroom tiles well .

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

### Minor Annoyances

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

- **The wait** — 3 weeks felt like forever . But they did warn me upfront .

- **Appointment only showroom** — You cannot just show up at their Woodlands place . A bit troublesome but ok la .

That's really it . Nothing to warn you about.

## How Much I Paid

I got it during their promotion :

**1 Set Slide & Swing Toilet Door — $399 Nett **

And this $399 included :

✅ Free on-site measurement

✅ Brought to my flat

✅ Proper fitting by BCA contractor

✅ Free disposal of old door

No GST surprise . What they said was what I paid .

In Singapore renovation terms? Quite rare honestly .

## I Actually Bought More Doors From Them

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

### Bedroom Doors

{My old bedroom doors were flimsy and you could hear everything through them.

I upgraded to **solid core laminate doors** from them . Way more solid. {The laminate finish is pretty durable and water resistant.

For those looking, check out their **[bedroom doors page](https://www.renovaid.com.sg/bedroom-doors.html)** . Options from budget to premium.

### The Second Bathroom

For the other toilet, 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.
