Crossing our fingers real real tight. big or small firms, theres no telling who will suddenly close, given what has happened to California fitness(this year), & Five stars tour(last year)

Good to know. Thanks for the info!

Can I check, Gabriel said the deposit is 15% after confirmation. Is this the norm? Will he throw in any freebies. Will he give alot of discounts? So far we like what we see & hear from Gabriel, & we will be engaging him. Jus wan to check to make sure we dun get smoked, & we dun wan any "surprises" during the reno period. Hubbs is a careful person, & has an eye for sizing down a person, I must say Gabriel has his way of impressing us with his design & service attitude despite us meeting him a number of times. Cheers

Wow! there so much rave on his workmanship, & customer service Can see Gabriel is a very down to earth type of person. We jus met up with him and found him to be very easy going. Hes quite detail, and he showed us some of his past works and hubbs seem to take a liking to his scandi designs which was somewhat different as he carefully explained it. He told us its not 100% Scandinavian, but an eclectic mix of styles all coming in together to form a bespoke design for us. We can see he knows what is he designing, & not just adding a cove lighting here and there for the sake of earning more $. We previously had one ID who proposed a platform for us, & when we asked on it, she simply replied “it is nicer this way”. Kinda disappointed with this type of answer, it was only later that we realized that she wasn’t even professionally certified, & she was from quite a prominent company. So far we have a list of shortlisted IDs, & those to run far far away from. Anyway Gabriel eventually told us that he usually go for everlasting designs; meaning it would not look out of date even after many more years. Its was only our first meeting & he gave us quite a few design suggestions, & also told provided other insights that we didnt realized before. In any case, he said that he would still follow our core intentions & improve on it if we have any, & advise us accordingly from there. So far so good, keeping my fingers crossed till our next meeting

Your reno was like so far back & he still answer your calls? Omg! Now tat’s what I call Quality after sales service! I have heard much horror stories when the ID just vanished into thin air after the reno period, even worse if its during the reno period. Did you get a ‘throwback’ moment when you see Gabriel again? Wahahaha So every now & then you would still call them back? They do small jobs? What are the charges like? I heard its quite hard to get a good firm to come by and do these things, & those random contractors don’t seem keen to do these jobs, and their workmanship is shoddy, and very expensive. How long is your warranty?

Hi Januslow, you did your reno last year? Theres so much rave and good reviews about gabriel and sabrina. You must be a very proud and happy with your new home

Yup. I called gabriel but spoken to a lady named sabrina instead, she said she would make an appointment for me with gabriel. I told her that we were working till 6pm every weekday & it was very difficult to get time off. It was very kind of her to offer to meet us after office hours, she even told us that we can meet up on weekends as well. Two thumbs up for her understanding, & accommodating our time From the conversation gabriel seemed to be quite busy, it was lucky we could get an appointment next week. We wanted to make it on a weekend but hubbs prefer not to bother others on a weekend. We'll see how it goes btw when did you engaged them? they can do minor touch up as well?

I got it already. Thanks ya!
