hey people...
whichever contractor or id u are consider using, do not use GEK JIN contractor in serangoon!
i had juz bought my resale 4 room flat and after talking to 6 contractors, i decided to use them coz the sales lady is a nice lady and the price is consider reasonable. Before starting work, i had advised her that i have a tenant which needs to move in after the 3rd week and she did compromised saying that at least a room and toilet will be ready by then.
Begining of the job was alright, they were pretty fast in hacking the kitchen, toilets' walls & tiles. My living room and bedrooms tiles were overlaid, so it was pretty fast. after this process, every is slow slow slow and very bad poor quality. their subcontractors began to take their own sweet time in doing the work, do not come in on the weekends, the sales lady was on leave and the so called assisting person in charge didnt know anything. our walls are like dog bitten right now, holes in the wall, paint had come off but they are not doing anything right now abt it while i am typing this. the sales lady kept teling me by week forth (this week), it will be completed.
i have so many questions that i had asked but got really funny answers. their solutions: 1. wash the floor first. 2. fill up the holes in the walls. 3. paint the house. 4. fix my both toilets' shower screens and 1 door. why would u want to wash the floor first where the rest of the stuffs are not done? if so, the floors will still be dirty after they completed the jobs. her answer, i will wash the floor personally for u then. huh? what is going on?
at this point of time, i do not even want to go into my house coz is really nonsense. on top of it, i am paying for my tenant to stay in hotel coz they cant get our place ready. best thing of it, when i went to check the house after work, i realised that the fan and bedroom lights are on and the windows are not closed though there are no one in the house.
we are thinking right now, should we go to case and complain them? terminate their services and get other contractors to continue the job? moving into a new house is supposed to be a joyful event but getting a **** contractor is real ****... my advice, please do not be like me, conned by appearance and nice attitude and price. do go for contractors that ur friends or family had used and strongly recommended.
