Design + Specification

For homeowners preparing to build or quote — you want a documented, room-by-room specification a contractor and ALUMAX can price and build against, not just a look.

RM1,600from · for one room · excl. SSTFour rooms RM5,600. Each room beyond the fourth is RM1,600.Reviewed 2026-09-18
Recommended when you need a buildable specification

Just need the product? ALUMAX can quote it directly — no ELS fee. Get an ALUMAX quotation

The problem it solves — Without a written spec, every contractor quotes a different scope and the wrong materials land in wet zones — the cost of the mistake only shows up mid-build.

What you receive

  • Real site feasibility fact-check
  • Room-by-room specifications
  • Cabinet requirements & moisture-zone materials
  • Lighting direction
  • Surface / colour / material schedule
  • Electrical & appliance planning notes
  • Budget-sensitive upgrade suggestions
  • Guidance on where to find the right materials and contractors
