  9. depends on how individuals look at it on their own perspectives,for me its definitely a no-no considering all the hassles like time taken to travel,testing of all items,custom clearance and not forgetting most scary part = rampant day light robbery,theft and so on...just cant imagine fate of losing my car for a pittance saving...

  20. thanks for concern bro,tat pic's taken b4 goutings done
  21. Hi may, thanks for time spent on reading and sound advice,but i do my humble views: Speaking of SMS,he almost never reply,only perhaps after 2 or 3 confirmation sms did he bother to reply a 'ok',he prefers direct over the phone interaction - tats what we been doing.. Schedule on renovation is a area we are poor in,as a contractor of xx years,scheduling should be a breeze to him. Our priority pretty same like most ppl out there,things like on time handover,acceptable workmanship...seriously we wont sue him if he exceeds our dateline but it goes to show how reliable a contractor is. No doubt about all his sub-cons,honest,reliable professionals,we did try infuse our ideas across to sub-cons some complied immediately as they recognize we are the real boss ,some wavered and called henry up... Congrats on ya moving in time for CNY,really hope alls well tat ends well
  22. hi danny bro, firstly allow me to thank you for taking precious time to read thru our blog. We will try using ya method on 'sms' part,but giving him a schedule is not my forte since the reason why we engage him is simply because we have no time to do all necessary coordinating / monitoring job. Frankly speaking bro if we were to really go into all these then we will most probably source directly for individual electrician,carpenter,plumber,tiler,and so on so forth...aint tat more cost effective? Our priority is simple,we dont put unrealistic timeline for our reno work,from the way things are running,he could have easily done it within 1 month...there were days that passed by without any progress,but still we were forgiving. Guess what the softer we are- the more northbound hobbit climbing over our head,thus the posts to remind him that every things he said n done are duly registered. yea i understand ya point of view,we had sort of talk things out wif him yesterday pertain to our concerns,and he promised us to rectify it.Still we suspected some strange happenings going on in our house..since my wife never took any photos,i will cant say much..
  23. hi jonana,we really appreciate your concern on our mishaps,will take them in our strive ...
  24. btw does miss tiang do paint job n gate installations bro?
  25. hi danny,we are really impressed by ya outstanding house designers concept,u really have strong sense of artistic in you dude,cheers!
