Project in Progress: 3-Bedroom Golf Course Apartment, Blue Canyon

Thaim To Build is currently delivering a full design-and-build renovation of a 3-bedroom apartment in the heart of Blue Canyon Apartment Golf Course. The brief is clear: transform an aging unit into a clean, modern, resort-style residence that matches the views over the fairways and reflects the 3D visuals our design team created at concept stage.

Scope of Works

  • Full strip-out of existing finishes, ceilings, lighting, and built-ins

  • New MEP layout (electrical, lighting, air-conditioning, plumbing, and data)

  • Re-planning of kitchen, living–dining, bedrooms, circulation, and storage

  • New ceilings, flooring, doors, windows, and aluminium sliding systems

  • Built-in furniture package to align with the new 3D interior visuals

Where We Are Now

We have reached a key milestone on site and moved from “demolition” into “rebuilding”:

1. Demolition Completed
All old ceilings, floor finishes, sanitary ware, and built-ins have been removed. The structure has been exposed and cleaned, giving us a clear base to work from and allowing the team to verify levels, slab conditions, and existing service routes.

2. MEP Rough-In Installed
Our MEP team has now completed the rough-in stage:

  • New electrical conduits and junction boxes installed throughout

  • Lighting points coordinated with the new ceiling design and furniture layout

  • Plumbing routes re-planned to suit the new kitchen and bathrooms

  • Provision for future systems (data, smart home, and AV) integrated in advance

All routes are coordinated to match the 3D visual plan and minimize clashes once ceilings and built-ins go in.

Current Construction Activities

With demolition and MEP rough-in completed, the project is progressing into its architectural fit-out phase:

Floor Levelling for SPC
We are now levelling the slab to receive SPC flooring. This step is critical to:

  • Achieve a perfectly flat surface for large open-plan spaces

  • Avoid hollow sounds, movement, and premature damage to the SPC planks

  • Maintain consistent finished floor levels across kitchen, living, circulation, and bedrooms

Wall Skimming
All existing walls are being skim-coated to straighten surfaces and prepare them for the final paint system. This ensures:

  • Clean lines that match the minimalist design language

  • Sharp junctions where walls meet ceilings, doors, and built-ins

  • A high-end finish consistent with the Blue Canyon environment

Ceiling Frames Going Up
The new steel ceiling grid is now being installed:

  • Layout follows the lighting and air-conditioning design from our 3D visuals

  • Service access points are coordinated for future maintenance

  • Feature recesses are prepared for cove lighting and cassette AC units

Doors and Windows Prepared for Aluminium Team
All openings are being rendered and straightened so that our aluminium partner can take final measurements:

  • Ensuring correct squareness and level before fabrication

  • Reducing on-site adjustment time during installation

  • Supporting a clean, slim-frame aesthetic in line with the interior visuals

From 3D Visual to Reality

One of the key drivers of this project is alignment between design and execution. Every step on site is cross-checked against the 3D visuals:

  • Kitchen layouts, island position, and tall cabinets

  • Living–dining flow, furniture positioning, and lighting scenes

  • Bedroom wardrobes, study nooks, and circulation around the bed

  • Stair and hallway feature panels that tie the whole apartment together

This “design-to-build” approach ensures that what the client saw on screen is what they will ultimately walk into when we hand over the keys.

Overcoming Site Logistics: Using a Crane

Our biggest operational challenge on this project is distance and access. The apartment is located deep within the golf course development, far from the main road and with limited direct vehicle access to the unit.

To manage this efficiently, we made a strategic decision to use a crane for material logistics:

  • Heavy materials such as steel, gypsum boards, and large items are lifted closer to the work zone

  • Labour time and manual handling are significantly reduced

  • The risk of damage during transport is minimised

  • Overall programme reliability improves, helping us maintain the project schedule

This is a good example of how Thaim To Build evaluates not just what to build, but how to build it in the most efficient way for each unique site.

What’s Next

Over the coming weeks, the project will move into:

  • Completion of floor levelling and SPC installation

  • Finalisation of ceilings and lighting fixtures

  • Installation of aluminium windows and sliding doors

  • Fit-out of kitchen, wardrobes, and built-in furniture

  • Final painting, detailing, and soft furnishing integration

We’ll continue to share progress as this 3-bedroom apartment evolves from raw concrete and exposed services into a refined, golf-course view home.

Stay tuned for the next update as Thaim To Build brings this Blue Canyon apartment renovation from 3D visual to reality.
