Renovation Con-men
summverale replied to summverale's topic in Renovation Contractors, Interior Designers & Suppliers Reviews
Hi Renovictim, I have went through your BLOG, look like many renov. con-men (no offense) with surname Lim. So sorry to hear about your case and the things you have been through. So how is your renov. works, has it been completed? My contractor is Roger Lim. I have mentioned his details earlier in this post. It is difficult to pursue these cases and it may take months or years or even worse, it will never be resolved. If you are aware, for the existing laws in Singapore, the renov contractors always in the upper hand. Do you know that some registered contractors have put their license up to other non registered contractors for a fee? No. I did not check as I thought my management did. Glad to hear that. But, I think it cost you a bomb to engaged Chew Interior (H-Bay), right? Any warranty after hand over? -

Hi Ninja1943, This guy will never be brought to justice, he is an ex-police men that know how to find loopholes with Singapore laws and regulations. In fact, recent news indicated that there are more conmen that uses such tricks. For your info. one of the victim and I went to confront him two months ago in his workplace, but it happened on that day, this guy was beaten up by another group of men. Although the police came 10 minutes later but they will helpless (unable to control the situation). later the ambulance came and brought him to hospital, unfortunately, he was not killed but only suffered broken ribs only. -

oonik girl, How is your case now? I have engaged another contractor and have completed my reno last month. -
Hi oonil grl, So sorry to hear about your case. I am also one of the reno victim, please refer to my earlier topic on"renovation con-men". I think you should disclose the name of the contractors, just like me so that it help the rest of the forumers here to avoid them. Did you report to the police? I did, but the police seem very lost and couldn't take any action at all. ==

Payment Terms
summverale replied to snowiee's topic in Renovation Contractors, Interior Designers & Suppliers Reviews
Hi Snowiee, If you refer to my topic "Renovation Con-Men", you can tell that your payment term is similar to mine and my carpentry work cost are around 50% of my total reno. cost. When money is involved, no one is reliable (so good luck with your reno). -

Thanks. Yes, it is super itchy, keep bathing non-stop then apply cream. But, this allergic come and go very quickly. Sorry, should be Roger Lim Yeam Chuan (1596058B), if you want, his H/P is 94599613. If I am not wrong, his home address is block 177, Ang Mo Kio, #08-XXXX. Latest update, he has just left his current job, look like the police will never catch-up with him Just don't know how many more people he need to con before he can get arrested. By the way, his victim included his fellow reno. contractors. -

Thanks Mate! for your support. Thanks.. Hi Disillusioned, saw your case too. So sorry about your case. I think sometime it really depend on luck, whether it is good or bad contractor. For CASE, not a chance because this conmen do not have company address nor telephone. All the best to you too. -

Thanks. this issue is difficult to resolve, firstly this reno has eaten deeply into my saving. To re-do this apartment, I need to come out with at least another 50% of the money I have lost initially. That not all, so far I have called up several contractors to come and give quote on the remaining works. Some of them quoted very high prices because a lot of touch-up works, some even not interested to do this works. Also, my family member and I were frequently attacked by dust mites even though we tried to clean up the apartment everyday. I don't think many of you here realised how stressful it is. So, if you want to reno your dream house, please extreme careful about the contractors that you engaged. -

sorry to hear about your plight so the carpentry material are delivered but not installed right? how come you paid the remaining 10% even though works not completed? My reno main works include:- Electrical - Lighting for apartment Fibre board false ceiling for entrance, living, new constructed and toilet Tile - Toilet and new constructed room (change heater, piping and etc) Aluminium - Windows and grills Carpentry- cabinet for kitchen, toilet, cabinets, wooden sliding door with frame and wooden based platform for new constructed room. Aircon - replace existing unit with split unit. Only, only electrical, fibre board and tile have been done (but new constructed room floor not hack yet. All carpentry not done, all the items that I bought (mixer, washing basin, oven, hob and etc) and Aircon cannot be recovered. Answer to your question, no, the carpentry work did not even take place. Also, if you look at the item (I did not realise earlier), the carpentary work took more than half total cost of the reno. Why, I pay him the remaining 10%, at that time I already on my knee hoping the contractor would not run road. The problem came during the very first day the reno and it started and the contractor dismantle my sliding door at the balcony (new constructed room), which found trace of water sippage due to the building problem. Hence, the wooden based platform for the new room cannot be done unless this water sippage issue is 100% resolved. Can you inmagine, I have to work, take care of my family and to settle with the building management on the water sippage issue and not forgetting this professional con-men. so sad to hear about these companies going around cheating pple maybe you want to share the company name so that others won't get cheated as well This contractor did even more nasty things to another one of his client (nearly separate with his wife because of this incident) which I came to knew him after I reported this case to the police, but no use, the police seems like very lost as well (don't know how to proceed). For your info, this contractor is an ex-police of more than 10 years, so he knew some tricks that always put him to his advantages. Also, for your information, he formerly worked in one of the "Hbay" reno film. So be careful when choosing your contractors, even those from the so-called "Hbay". The company is Mint Interior Decoration Pte Ltd. The name of this conman is Roger Lim Yeam Chuan (15906058B). I will appreciate if anyone can provide me with ideas how to get back the money. Too late, already posted. Hope that no more people falled into his traps anymore. -
