It's fine with me, just that I miss him mah. Of course, I would still prefer to go together with him. Ha... As I'm of small build, so big 5 carat diamond ring dun suit me, I dun mind a few diamond rings though... lol... It's not that. It's me who prefer Catherine to coordinate with my hubby who is in a better position and he know it better how to handle. I'm the one who told her to wait for my hubby to be back yes yes... waiting for another pretty wife

Hi darkfear, fencer is still away on his 2 weeks long tour, leaving his pretty wife behind... haha... Think he might not be able to respond these few days. Got to wait for him to come back to call Catherine (from Henry's office) who offered to send their supervisor over to take a look at the window. Thanks for your concern, darkfear Thanks for letting us know that we can get the contractor to go view the house with us. Yes, is really good service.

well said, scenium

Well, I can offer whatever help I can rendered. Like introducing a lawyer, etc. Wouldn't you? In the first place, he is the one who started the legal issue. I think we shouldn't give in to threats, if not, the person would think he can "get away" without settling all the hanging issues. well, provided "the busy man" has time to meet & dun cancel at the very last min. I always advised people to settle things peacefully but not in the case when people dun do their work properly. Remember all the possible "outcomes" that one has to live with. Cracked tiles, leaking window, overflowing water in one of the toilet.

Yes, the crack would be a problem if it is not sloved. I have seen it with my own eye that the cracks on the wall tiles would be "lengthened" if it is not solved in another HDB flat. By then, the contractor would surely said it is not his fault. To be fair to everyone, a forum should be a place where pros & cons are provided & not only contained good comments about any contractor. Somemore, there are photos to show the evidence and not just only with words. One should see with one's eyes and not think they only heard one-sided of the story. Any intelligent people would see the truth and not sided with anyone cos they have good relationships with this person or his "fans". No offence to anyone. A coin has 2 sides and a person too. You might not see the bad side of a person if he wants to hide it. Time would prove everything. If you have encounters that you cannot get the contractor when you needed his help, he is always not free to meet you, you can only suit his timing to meet, he called to cancel appointments at last min even though the appt is fixed almost the day before, you need to take leave to settle things on your own, you are there to supervise more than he does, to the later half, he appeared cos he wants to collect payments or some "negative" & truthful comments are made on the forum, then you might have different thoughts. Sorry if I sound offensive.

By the way, Henry has dragged so long to give a simple quotation or final bill. Nothing is ever signed for after the first quotation. My principle: 1) I do not pay till I see what is in the bill to verify it. 2) At least, I need to know what is the amount to pay and how much to pay. I am sure no one paid up without knowing whether the final bill is correct or without knowing what they are paying for. How would you know you are not double-charged? If anyone tell me you can pay up without seeing the final products or know what you are paying for, then i can say you are rich man... If someone dun do their work well and threaten me with a lawyer letter, I wouldn't want to pay up the last payment until he complete his work cos it is just the contractor's tactic, making you afraid. I dun give in to threats. At the most, I would prepare my lawyer to fight. See who is at the losing end.

Ya lor, really pian1 xin1... Basically, fencer has to do most of the contacting himself. A lot of things, fencer has to handle himself cos Henry dun "appear" most of the times. He worked harder than Henry. Kudos to fencer. Ha... Just a note, perhaps give Henry a gentle reminder that he needs to drop by often to check on his workers. It's hard for Henry cos after all, works are done by workers & not him.
