  1. Weird, this thread was started by Newowner09, a female with 18 posts, last active 31/1/17. Yet all recent replies, asking for thread starter's contractor contact, is by TangYM, a male with 93 posts. Did he hijack the thread, PM-ing everyone with misleading contact?
  2. I find it very scary. Too many cases of renovation left unfinished or poorly done once the big portion is paid. 45% upon carpentry installation is not as bad as 45% upon measurement of carpentry. At least you get to see the carpentry in your house and can see the quality before paying. Try to negotiate for at least 10-15% final payment.

  6. Hi, Can you please share with me your renovation quotation? Looking forward to photos of your completed renovation.
  7. Pls share your ID's contact and company name with me. Thanks.
  8. The contractors I have spoken to so far have all assured me that they will only charge for work done. Work that is not done will not be charged even if they were on the list at signing. But of course with contractors, you should really have a very clear idea of what you want to do before signing. Maybe you can put down "KIV" in front of work items that you have not decided on. As for ID, it's a different story. I straight out tell them not to push me any package because whatever package it is will not meet my requirements. Those that are pushy with package I just tell them to get lost. To me, their so called package is a trap to tempt potential customers and secure deposit. You cannot remove any work items from the package, meaning they will not reduce the price even if you reduce the work items. Sure, you can add work items. But usually it will be at a premium price. After all, they are already holding on to your deposit. They will be more than happy to eat your deposit without starting work. Choose your ID/ ID company carefully.
  9. Wow. Really terrible. If it was me, I will make a very big fuss about all these defects. I will insist they redo it until I am satisified. Can you please PM me the ID/contractor name and company so I can avoid them. Thanks.
  10. No I have not. I only went there to look look see see touch touch. Still looking for ID/contractor, taking key early 2017.
  11. hi jasminelin, can pm me your id name and company, thanks. will be good if you can share with me your quotation too.
  12. Well, I contacted Lemon Concepts, had a short whatsapp conversation with Marcus. Sent him my floorplan, reno requirements list, mood board and ideas, diagrams of carperntry layout. That was on 12/10/16. No reply since. Did not even reply my query on whatsapp even though he read my message.
  13. Yea I agree. The measurements need to be stated in the quotation, as detailed as possible. Down to the materials used, laminates, hardware (such as soft close hinge and tracks, what brand), Quartz brand and selection, etc. Else there will potentially be lots of "I thought, you thought.." after you have signed and placed deposit. Then everything will be "top up/hidden cost". If a contractor gave me a quote as above, I will not even bother to reply/contact further.
  14. Looking good, keep us updated! Can you share with me your ID/contractor's details and quotation please. Thank you!
