pinkpetter 0 Report post Posted December 11, 2008 WAH very long ah............... mmm it actually looks ok to me le. Just that since you do whole house can ask for some things free la like the acid wash and the labour to put stuff in bathroom. But that wouldn't make a dent into the 28k. Lots of carpentry so it brings up the cost wor. If over budget you might want to look at cutting down on carpentry? If not then... it does seem ok to me ba.

shearerkk 0 Report post Posted December 12, 2008 Hi Figo, Jus a update and reminder for U when carpentary works starts... Watch their work closely.... for I find their workmanship not very good... and even tho I find Vincent & Alan pretty responsive & positive, their carpenters works dont seem to be very skilful. Most of my carpenter works r okie... but the TV wall had a lamination joining gap, (small gap)... which I only discover aft the fireplace bricks are all in...... which make it very difficult for me 2 ask them to re-do the TV wall. The corrective action was to use marker to hide the gap. (I'm not happy tht the workers did not highlight it but instead wait for us to find out) Alan explained that even the experience workers may have workmanship prob.... which I dont quite buy that.. if it is done wrongly... then jus have to do it again at their cost... not try to hide error made. Alan meeting tonight to sort out all the defect prob.... (I dont blame him... jus not happy with the carpentary workmanship)..... doubt he can solve the TV wall problem.

Since you talk about their carpentry workmanship, I think I may need to reduce my carpentry work from them haha.... Already opted out the king size bed frame for my MBR.....how about their wordrobe workmanship? I would jus say, average.... Again... it was lamination problem.. but this time.. the worker discovered it & realise cannnot hide... thus change it even before we discover it. Even then..... I found a very very small hole on the side of the wordrobe lamination.... assume it got 'knock' in the midst of carpentry works....(how careless of the workers!!) One more thing to add... If U have any changing of wooden doors, etc... do deal with supplier directly... U can be assure of a better deal, & more quality job. (I found one at Toa Payoh, industrial park Lor 8) I have a crack line on the new door that they provided... which again.. I discovered too late, aft they installed and painted it.

Came back fr meeting up with ID, was quite a peaceful resolution... tho I didnt ask him to bring his workers... he brought in his tiler & carpenter to see the defect. Tho the TV wall gap cannot be remove, he ask his expert carpenter to do a clean party job, before touch up with paint work. The tiler was patience & explain to me how tile sometime have abit of alightment issue; accepted his explaination, and proposal to do a re-tile for one of the piece on Mon. The wooden door one cannot be help as it is alrdy installed & painted..... even tho I told ID I'm willing to accept it... he insisted that he will get his worker in on Mon to party up the crack line. Overall, I see that ID is doing his best to rectify all defects. Things happen... but with the responsiveness & willingness to make good..... giving his competitive quote for the reno,.... it is not all wasted. Welll... watch yr project carefully for the carpenter works, ask question if in doubt when U see the workers carrying out the job. Then... should have no prob. Doors wise... get your own supplier.

skywolf 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2008 I got mine here: http://www.yontat.com.sg/ at $250 each incl lockset and stopper. As i'm not too picky, and the design looks all right (abt 5 to choose from for that price), we took up on them instead of from ID. We made one trip there to see what they have, then they will come to your side to measure the size first. After that, they will head to your side on a 2nd trip to install everything.
