Can anyone kindly pm me Dennis's contact to me? Thanks. quote name='joe8844' timestamp='1303280909' post='630469'] Hi, We bought our executive apartment in August last year and was looking for a good ID firm to help us with the renovation (Our previous renovation contractor for the old house was rather lousy so we decided to do a bit more shopping this time round). I remembered that few months back, we attended the house warming party of my wifes friend and we both thought that the design and quality was rather good. As such, we contacted her friend and got the contact of her ID. The ID firm was Summit Design Studio and *** was the ID. We met *** subsequently and could sense that he was very professional and non-imposing. He was also patient and listened to what we had in mind though at that time we were still undecided as we were planning to do a Fengshui audit of the house. When we invited him to be there during the Fengshui audit, he readily agreed though at that point, we had not sign up for his services yet. On the day of the audit, we were quite taken aback as the Fengshui master suggested an overhaul of the existing design (We bought the house because we like the design and had paid a high COV for it) though the house Fengshui was good. Knowing that this will be a massive project (in terms of cost), *** suggested to come up with 2 set of quotation for our consideration; one taking into consideration cost (do the critical ones but not everything the Fengshui master suggested) and the other the total revamp (according to the Fengshui audit). As we wanted more options, we decided to source for other ID firms. However, after looking at a few others we still prefer *** service. Infact, we waited for more than 2 weeks for a quotation from one ID firm in Balestier (also found on Renotalk). *** reverted quite promptly with the quotation a few days after the audit and I must say that we were quite troublesome as we literally went through the quotation line by line, item by item to try to reduce our cost. Throughout our discussion, *** maintained his patience and try to accommodate our request within his means. At the end, we decided to sign up with Summit Design as we felt more comfortable with him and we were happy with his design and service attitude (and price as well). We started our renovation in Nov last year and we were happy with our decision to use ***. We could see that he is a very detailed ID with high expectations of his work and would immediately rectify any work found to be unsatisfying. On many occasions when we called him in the night to feedback on the work, he was prompt to response and would see that something is done the next day. In terms of the design, he also gave many useful ideas from design concept to furnishing. As we wanted to move in before CNY and on the date given by the Fengshui master, we would always pressure him to expedite the project. He would tactfully tell us that he would try his best but would not compromise the quality and standards of the project. Our renovation was completed in Jan, a week before CNY and we were very happy with the work. We also received good comments from visitors on the design of the house. Overall, we are happy with *** work and would not hesitate to refer him to our friends. Keep up the Good Job ***!
